Rajasthan University, India
The study examines relationship between college student's academic success and parental control.
A sample of 128 students completed college students attitudes and perception survey and their
performance were predicted by both current and school days parental monitoring levels. Study
shows that predictions are influenced with monitoring level, support and demandingness of
parents. Results are somewhat less predictive of final year college students then they were for
senior school/freshman at college. Family influence was more prominant for joint households
compared to nuclear families. Findings suggest that parenting control continues to play an
important role in the academic life of college students.

Changchun teachers college education department, China
The influence of two implements and subject achievement on the effects and motivation of project
learning were studied with 337 high school students. The project learning effects can be shown in
research experience, data collection, communication and co-operation ability. Students involved in
project learning that combined with subjects have better effects on research experience and data
collection and lower perceived competence than those involved in separate project learning. There
is no difference between the two implements in communication, co-operation ability, intrinsic
interest and perceived cost. Subject achievement has no influence on project learning effects,
attainment value, intrinsic interest and cost.
