Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

This multiple-case study aimed to accumulate and understand the experiences of Bachelor of Elementary Education-Generalist (BEED) student-achievers. Using purposive sampling and inclusion criteria, the participating (3) student-achievers were identified. Through indepth interviews, observations, and field notes, comprehensive data were gathered. Thematic analysis and cross-case analysis were utilized, revealing that addressing experiencing difficulties in managing time, struggling with academic pressure, and challenges in striking between academic and extracurricular responsibilities are highly beneficial. Despite challenges, BEED student-achievers strived and find motivation through asking assistance from others, utilizing electronic devices for learning, and building open communication, their role for academic success and their motivation to help themselves were key drivers for participation, the results of this study were deemed significant by the participants, parents, teachers, students, and researchers.
