Garden-based learning programs result in increased nutrition along with environmental awareness, higher learning achievements, and increased life skills for our students.
The active and engaged behaviors, such as reading additional references and discussing experiments with peers and TAs, manifest intrinsic motivational development, which is usually correlated to higher learning achievements (Elliot, 1999; Russell and French, 2002; Niemiec and Ryan, 2009).
The average scores of cognitive skills and critical thinking test were in the higher level.The learning achievement of students passed the criteria of 80 percent.The students'opinion showed that the learning contents, the media on the network and the design were suitable for supporting knowledge construction and the model can enhance students' cognitive skills and critical thinking.
Interestingly, in this study, students in junior college group have higher tax learning achievement than university group.
One of the important finding of this study is that students in blended learning group have the highest tax learning achievement scores than both fully-online and traditional groups.
Although there was no statistically significant difference on students' prior learning achievement between the high and low motivation groups, the mean score of students' learning achievement in high motivation group was higher than that in the low motivation groups.
Specially, the English learning achievement of students with high academic motivation were significantly higher than the learning achievement of those with low academic motivation.
The descriptive statistical results (see Table 3) of citizen learning experiences showed that citizens from 68 cities have similar learning perceptions on learning achievement (mean value was high, and the coefficient of variation(CV) was low), while learning perception on learning approach differs greatly.
Examining all groups combined (enhanced, control, students, and preceptors), the table shows that content domains differ considerably in their respective levels of learning achievement (M%); ranging from lows of about 40% to highs of near 90%.
Results indicate that the size of differences between males and females in learning achievement varies according to the proficiency level, i.e. between low and high achievers.
