Abstract

Induction or orientation sessions in higher education institutions are highly recommended for newly joining students. The interest in studying the impact of applying these sessions on education division students is shaped by the noticed needs of students in their studies. This study aims to identify the impact of the induction sessions run by the researcher on year one students’ performance. An imperial qualitative research methodology will be implemented to collect data using the eight students’ submitted work as artefacts for the analysis. Related literature will be considered to answer the research questions and form a solid foundation for the study. The analysis of the students’ work revealed a positive impact on students’ performance and understanding in terms of referencing, academic writing, English language grammar and skills and reflective writing. There was a noticeable improvement in students’ work in the final product. Recommendations were stated, such as using additional data tools for the analysis. Another recommendation is to run the study on the students until they graduate from the education program for an in-depth understanding of their development.
