REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

 7

This chapter contains literature and studies that are related to the present research

study. This section of research is categorized according to importance of socio-affective

communication skills.

On Attitude

According to Mcleod,Saul(2018),Attitude is a "relatively enduring otganization of the

feelings ,beliefs,and behavioral tendncies towards object. Group of people events or to

symbols. And expressing by evaluating of some degree of flavor or the disfavor ,stronger the

attitude the more likely it should affect to the behavior in terms to socializing to every person.

According to the study of ACS Distance Education( 2015),Influence upon the individuals

response to anyone and its situation with which it is related. Attitude have a cognitive

component an affective component ,and the behavioral component attitude is just a feeling or

a thoughts towards other attitude can have a possitive and negative nuetral to other and

enduring some emotions.

According to Howe and Krosnick (2017), Attitude is a strengths has been focus of a huge

volume of a research of psychology and related sciences for more decades, attitude has been

central to social psychologist theory development since birth. Attitude are not tangible or easily

recognized by others we can observe the effect of an attitude but not the attitude itself.

According to the study of Stem (2015),The “term school attitude representing a positive or

negative feelings associated in school describe students subjective well-being in school.

 8

Students referred to their interest in learning inside and outside of school they obtained their

educational through experiences.

According to Kendra cherry,and steven Gand MD,(2018), on psychologist an attitude

refers to a set of a emotions, beliefs, and behaviors towards a particular object , person or

things ,attitude often results to experience that they can have. Attitude can lead to a tendencies

to evaluate such thngs, some evaluate are often to positive and negative .but they can also be

uncertain sometimes or have a mixed feelings to a particular person or a issue

According to the study of Makropoulos (2009), as cited by Ambong (2017), reavels that

the attitude of engaged and disengaged students were informed by the everyday realities of

their respective linguistic and academic situations. They suggest the closer the match to

personality to the job the great satisfaction.

According to Ice Ajen (2013), Spurred largely by interest in the relation between attitude

and behavior a period of relative neglected has move back focus to research on social

psychologist accepting the preposition that have a affect on attitudes towards an behavioral

relation.it is an attitudes that individual disposition to respond to someone.

On Environment

According to the study of National Center on safe supportive learning environment

(2017),A school environment is Broadly characterized by its facilities classrooms, school base,

some positive school environment is define as a school having a appropriate facilities or well

manage classroom. According to the study up school planning and management 2017, healthy

classroom and they will student and teachers to be their best, physically, mentally and
 9

emotionally. Creating a healthy classroom involved addressing issues in a holistic we ask part of

an our echo system.

According to Ulrike Stadler Altman(2017), is there an influence of school or classroom

buildings and space on education. They use of the school classroom that is there relationship

between the classroom and it's arrangement with conducting of a lessons within the classroom.

According to the study of learning liftoff (2016), it makes sense that student who do

better when they learn in positive environment. People was agree that some environment are

more conducive to learning and had a make performance. Some research paper shows the

possible learning environment can lower teacher turn over by 25%, school that provide better

environment in other words could potentially reach higher levels of success.

According to Zipping Sam(2014), student achievement is often purely look at from the

perspective of the strength of the curriculum and the quality of the teachers. But today after

study demonstrate that facilities themselves have a big impact on the student behavior, grade,

teacher venture and even to the community.

According to the study of world Health Organization 2015, environment challenges and

opportunities vary considered among schools around the world across countries and within

communities. Some other resources available to schools to manage health hazards vary as

widely as the threat themselves. Social Social Development is such a key issue with those young

children that a number of matters to address social skills have been advocate.(Lynch Sharon A.,

Simpson Cynthia G. 2010), children learning this skills to adult, children, also do their

environment. The social skills that I learn when they young from the basis of relationship that

they develop in their childhood and also the their adulthood .

 10

According to Daraee Fakhr Salehi (2018), social skills are considered as a one of the

important factors to their success or to their failure to every individual to this Society. Social

skills are a behavior, that's promote the positive and negative interaction towards to another

individual or those environment.

According to the study of Steedly ,Ph, D., Schwartz Ph, D., Levin ,M. A., and Luke, Ed.

O(2008), social skills are not the same thing as like a behavior. It's rather they are component of

behavior that the health and individual understanding adopt a cross a variety up social setting.

Social skills sing the little can also define in the context a social and emotional learning it can

create opportunities to practice effective social skills both individual or by group.

According to Kelly Warfield (2016), successful learning environment also required that

learning objective be relevant to your student and lives outside of the classroom without ability

to explore how information the daily life, you're student are likely to engage in there lessons

commit that information to your memory.

On Knowledge

According to Omotayo (2013),the emergency acknowledge bass economic play an

important on effective management of knowledge, knowledge has been describe as a effective

critical ingredient for any organization seeking for ensure sustainable strategy competitive

advantages

According to Lee (2013), implementing activity that provide opportunity or International

students mingle with some domestic student do develop relationship will not only contribute

there adjustment process to order person.

 11

As indicated by Blazar David (2014), research has been confirmed that the teachers have a

substantial impact on there student academic to a lifelong success, despites considered efforts

to identify characteristics such a experience to education and certification with effectiveness.

Ferguson ,Barzilai, Zvi et .all (2017),stated that learning and assessment for an interactive

world, to guide teachers and policy makers to be have a productive innovation, innovation that

are currently in currency but have not yet profound influence on the education.

According to Kelly Warfield (2016), successful learning environment also required that

learning objective be relevant to your student and lives outside of the classroom without ability

to explore how information the daily life, you're student are likely to engage in there lessons

commit that information to your memory.

According to Susan tuth, (2016), encourage student to research investigate how and

why things happier, and make their own decision about complex environmental issues. By

developing and and Hans thinking skills, help and you generation not that student must learn to

investigate or meet make their own decisions about environment.

Synthesis

We all known that attitude,knowledge and environment is needed to every student to

do better or Excel in what they do or to do have a strength and successful learning everyday,

they need to innovate their skills, they need to develop there social interaction to everyone

towards to another new environment if he or she in a new place. Every student need to
 12

explore there ability, strength, behavior towards another persons. To a knowlageable in some

circumstances.

On Participatory

Accordin to Zafer Kus (2014), participation status of primary school ,students at

school in family and in society . the important factors that affect the participation of a students

in a school when the place where are they study.

According to G. M. Mahuro and N. Hungi(2016),Educational research has linked parental

participation in children's schooling with a range of children academic outcomes ,if some

student are to reap have a maximum benefits in their schooling ,they need to enjoy every

parental support.

As stated by Bogenschneider, Karen and Johnson Carol (2015),policy makers interested

in promoting school success must look beyond in the school door, the reform have focused on a

course curriculum. Instructional methods and teachers training to improve student

achievement.

On Applicability

According to Glowa, Liz and Gooddell Jim (2016),Student centered learning

models personalized learning with the use of competency-based approach by blending an

online learning modalities and to environments. Students share their responsibility for their

own learning with their time and as well as student have a extended learning options and the

resources.
 13

According to Jessica K. Beaver Ph. D. , Brittan Hallar Ph. D. and Lucas Westmaas

(2014), Policy makers and practitioners alike have turned to blended their learning as a way to

promote the innovation. To reduce the educational cost to experience the student to rise the

student achievement every grading.

On Capability

According to Stewart, Frances (2013), social interactions are a quintessential Parr

of human life, and their quantity and quality to determine a persons social or relations

capabilities, involving to relations with other. The objective of development is to expand the set

of a capability of every individual.

According to Fernandez and Sabherwal (2010)cited by Dr. Ra'ed ,Dr. Ali Tarhini, Dr.

Based yousef (2015), define knowledge management as doing what is needed to get the most

out of knowledge resources and they added to the most statement is the KM or knowledge

management is viewed as a discipline that promotes the creation and sharing.

According to Alireza Javanmard and Kavoos Mohannak (2015),Organizational capability

develop has been emerged as a dominant theoretical framework for explaining their firms

generation of an maintaining of competitive advantages.

According to Moment, Nielsen, and Katash (2015),Characteristics of firms especially

service firms are define by rapid change, globalization hyper innovate competition etc. It's

recognition of the aspects of innovations capability and proposes a conceptual model based.
