| contents | <p>Abstract: This study investigated the predictive role of collaborative study strategies on<br>undergradute English learners' academic goal-orientation among in Nnamdi Azikiwe<br>University, Awka. The research was guided by five specific questions and four null<br>hypotheses. The study employed a correlational survey research design, targeting all<br>undergraduate English students at the university. A sample of 200 students was randomly<br>selected from 1,146 populations of the two faculties: the English Department and<br>Education and English Language. To collect data, 2 questionnaires; Collaborative Learning<br>Questionnaire, CLQ; and Academic Goal-Orientation Questionnaire AGOQ were used. The<br>internal consistency of the items was evaluated using Cronbach alpha statistics, yielding<br>reliability coefficients of 0.81 for the CBQ and 0.93 for the AGO-Q. Data collected were<br>analysed using SPSS version 24. Pearson Product Moment Correlation were used to answer<br>the research questions, while Simple Linear Regression was used to test the null<br>hypotheses at a 0.05 significance level. The findings revealed that collaborative learning<br>strategies such as group discussion, peer tutoring, and think-pair-share did not have a<br>significant relationship with academic goal orientation. However, structured debate was<br>found to significantly predict academic goal orientation among English learners at Nnamdi<br>Azikiwe University, Awka. This study underscores the importance of structured debate in<br>enhancing academic goal orientation among English undergraduate students, providing<br>valuable insights for teaching practices and strategies aimed at promoting academic<br>success. Key findings were discussed, highlighting the significance of this research for<br>educators and policymakers seeking to improve academic outcomes among English<br>language learners.</p> |
