INTERPRETATION
CONCLUSION
Feeling of belonging is one of the most
important variables that affect the students
motivation and achievement. It can be said that
teachers attitude towards the students and also
towards the lessons affect the way students feel
about the school itself. This proves that whatever
the teacher does, students take it into heart and act
accordingly. So, the responsibility of teachers are of
great value.
There seems to be some important differences
about the issue between private and public schools.
Although several factors interfere here, the biggest
portion falls to teachers.
LIMITATIONS
SUGGESTIONS
In light of our findings, we came up with following
suggestions. Teachers;
should minimize the evaluative pressure and maximize
students choices and opinions in activities.
should introduce challenging learning activities for students
to test their abilities.
should provide choice and meaningful rationales for
learning activities.
should provide necessary tools and feedback to promote
success.
should make students feel liked, respected, valued.
should involve the students more in learning and try to meet
their developmental needs more.
