- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe the relationship between students’ self-assessment and their attitudes towards learning, and to identify the factors that influence them. This study is based on theoretical concepts of self-assessment and learning attitudes such as cognitive and affective taxonomy. The taxonomy comprises three learning domains-cognitive, affective and psychomotor. A total of 285 university students of the teacher preparation program in Mongolia were involved in this study. Quantitative research methods were used to identify the factors that affect students’ self-assessment and their attitudes towards learning. The student self-assessment questionnaire consisted of 6 subscales with 25 questions and the learning attitude questionnaire consisted of 5 subscales with 25 questions. The results of the study show that there was a significantly moderate, positive, linear correlation between students’ self-assessment and their attitudes towards learning (r = .643, p < 0.001). It was found that individual factors such as motivation, values, enjoyment, and self-confidence as well as socio-demographic factors affect learners’ self-assessment and learning attitudes. The significance of the study is to identify effective approaches and opportunities to support students’ successful learning.
