Deterioration of students' mathematics achievement has been a common problem while their mathematics perception and self-efficacy have been reported to determine their achievement. However, little is known about the potential relationships among them. Therefore, this study attempted to investigate the extent of influence of students' mathematics…

Student plagiarism presents a serious challenge for higher academic institutions globally. This issue is particularly prevalent in developing countries like Bangladesh, where a lack of ethical academic policies and limited awareness of plagiarism impede efforts to effectively combat academic misconduct. Against this backdrop, this paper…

We explored the relationships among university student's gender, online learning engagement, attitudes toward online learning, readiness, and academic achievement in a public university.
