Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to examine the longitudinal multiple-relations among the outside-class learning hour, active learning attitude, learning outcomes, and grade point average (GPA). Data were collected using an online research method, which consisted of two waves from March 2017 to March 2018 with one-year assessment intervals. Participants were 800 university students. The results of hierarchical regression analysis indicated that active learning attitude in Time 1 positively predicted to learning outcome and GPA in Time 2. This finding suggested that active learning attitude play an important role predicting learning outcomes and GPA.
