“…The findings of a study by Tho et al showed that, the more positive the students’ attitude, the more satisfied they were with college life quality [ 61 ]. Students are also more successful in their studies and their social life, because positivity helps them to perceive themselves as individuals capable of coping with challenges associated with the demands of academic life [ 62 ].…”

This study aimed to investigate the mediatory role of emotional control with respect to the control of anger, depression, and anxiety in the relationship between positive orientation and tiredness/fatigue occurring in a group of Polish nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study included 894 nursing students from six universities in Poland. A diagnostic survey was applied as the research method, and the data were collected using the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), the Courtauld Emotional Control Scale (CECS) and the Positive Orientation Scale (SOP). The mean participant age was 20.73 years (SD = 1.81). More than half of the students in the study showed a low level of positive orientation. Correlational analyses revealed a significant negative correlation between positive orientation and tiredness/fatigue experienced by the students participating in the study (r = −0.336; p < 0.001), and correlation between positive orientation and the overall emotional control index (r = −0.317; p < 0.001), and the indices of control of anger (r = −0.154; p < 0.01), depression (r = −0.376; p < 0.001), and anxiety (r = −0.236; p < 0.01). Analysis of the results also revealed the occurrence of significant, positive links between the controlled emotions and their components and the tiredness/fatigue experienced by nursing students. It is important to take action associated with the prevention of tiredness/fatigue among students and to reinforce a positive orientation and the capacity to control emotions to effectively minimize the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on nursing students.

“…This question is relevant, because the students' most prevalent emotions predispose them to a satisfactory or stressful university experience [36]. Certain prior studies have tentatively established this relationship [37]. Others have highlighted the relationship between learning difficulties and well-being [38].…”

The research aim of this paper was two-fold: to generate evidence that personality factors are linear predictors of the variable approaches to learning (a relevant cognitive-motivational variable of Educational Psychology); and to show that each type of learning approach differentially predicts positive or negative achievement emotions, in three learning situations: class time, study time, and testing. A total of 658 university students voluntarily completed validated questionnaires referring to these three variables. Using an ex post facto design, we conducted correlational analyses, regression analyses, and multiple structural predictions. The results showed that Conscientiousness is associated with and predicts a Deep Approach to learning, while also predicting positive achievement emotions. By contrast, Neuroticism is associated with and significantly predicts a Surface Approach to learning, as well as negative achievement emotions. There are important psychoeducational implications in the university context, both for prevention and for self-improvement, and for programs that offer psychoeducational guidance.

“…The approach is a set of systematically used insights as a basis for thinking in determining strategies, methods, and techniques or procedures in achieving certain results according to predetermined goals (Takase & Yoshida, 2021;Tho et al, 2020). Accuracy in choosing a strategy allows implementing the selected methods to realize and create conducive and fun learning conditions.…”

The low student learning outcomes are caused by the lack of learning media that can motivate students to learn. Therefore, it is necessary to develop learning media that can increase student learning motivation. This study aims to produce products in the form of learning video media on science content, especially natural resource materials. This research is a Research & Development research based on the Borg & Gall model. The subject in this research is learning video media, with the validity of the media as the object of research. This study involved one learning material expert, one instructional media expert, one instructional design expert, and field test preparation (one teacher and six students). The data collection method used questionnaires and questionnaires which were then analyzed using quantitative descriptive analysis. The results of this study indicate that from the aspect of learning materials, aspects of learning media, and aspects of learning design, the qualifications are very good with a percentage of 96.1%. From the aspect of field testing, this media preparation has very good qualifications with a percentage of 97.4%. It was concluded that the learning video media developed was suitable for use in science content, especially natural resource materials in grade IV SD. Therefore, it is recommended to use video media as an alternative in improving the quality of learning natural resource materials in the fourth grade of elementary school.
