Questions – scientific papers (related researches)

Question 5: If you do not succeed in passing the Panhellenic

exams, how will you deal with it?
The experiment that was conducted by Naeem Akhtar Rana in
2017:
Topic: Failure to get Admissions in a Discipline of their own
Choice: Voices of Dejected Students
Hypothesis: 60-minute interviews of students who failed with
their admissions (age 17-19). The data collection method was
broken into 3 steps (classroom discussions, informal
discussions and then in-depth interviews). The 20 students
were asked questions about their expectations, their
preparation, their feelings after being rejected and what they
would do next
Finding: The majority chose to re-try with their admissions but
there also were certain students who went and found a job.

QUESTION 8: How would you prefer to be evaluated during

your studies?
A scientific paper conducted in September 2007 written by the
Turkish Science Education journal, more specifically by Osman
BİRGİN and Adnan BAKİ examined the case of a more
constructive evaluation throughout school years. Their
hypothesis was to find an alternative way where students would
be graded fairly, develop their critical thinking and other
essential skills. The process of portfolio for students was
chosen as one of the alternatives since it reflects on students’
work systematically and allows the teaching staff to examine
their progress with more accuracy. Several conditions would
have to take place to make this suggestion function as well as
divide Portfolios into categories so the teachers grade students
with more records regarding their performance. Although both
the advantages and disadvantages of this method were taken
into account their total findings were that it would have a
positive impact on students’ learning development and make
teachers aware of their progress but many arrangements would
have to be implemented beforehand.
Question 6: How effective do you believe is today’s education
in schools?
The experiment was conducted by western Michigan university.
Topic: An investigation of factors related to student satisfaction
and dissatisfaction with high school.
Hypothesis: are there identifiable factors which are related to
student satisfaction and dissatisfaction with school?
Findings: the factor with the highest percentage figures relative
to dissatisfaction with school is teachers’ behaviour. The school
policy and administration, interpersonal relations with peers
indicate that approximately one of every four students found
these factors to be sources of dissatisfaction. The percentage
figures for the teachers’ behaviour, school policy and
administration, and interpersonal relations with peers were
most often designed as sources of dissatisfaction.
The two factors with the highest percentage figures
relative to satisfaction with school are achievement and
recognition. Of the remaining factors the most often mentioned
by students was school activities and the school work itself.
Question 9: Do you believe that Greek or Northern European
Universities offer more incentives for students to feel more at
home and make better use of their time while studying?

Topic: Do you think that Greek or Northern European

Universities contain more incentives for students to be happy to
always be at the university and to make productive use of their
years of study?
Hypothesis: According to the results Northern European
countries contain more incentives for students to be happy and
to stay at the university.

Finding: Students that study in European countries are happier

because these universities contain:
 A very strong international academic community that
conducts cutting-edge research
 European Universities have a low fee for studying. As a
result, students will not be worried about the chance of
economical problems that the family have.
 The higher education system in all European countries
are aligned. That means that if a student do a bachelor or
a master degree the framework will be the same because
of the higher educational system being aligned. As a
result, this is why students in European universities want
to stay on the studies that he/she does because it will not
change the framework in the future.
 Because of the knowledge of English not only the
language is improving and also the students don’t need to
 know the language that the country is using and also if he
has a proficiency for example he will have a very high
level of the English language. In conclusion the students
in the university will understand the lessons that they will
do
