This study, which was conducted with data obtained from students studying at Düzce University and benefiting from the Erasmus program, aimed to reveal how orientation training for students going abroad within the scope of the Erasmus Program contributes to students in academic, social and personal aspects. Research results show that orientation training strengthens social relations between students, provides general satisfaction, and offers benefits in different educational fields. According to the results of the study, students state that the orientation training serves the purpose of introducing the local culture, meeting the authorities, adapting, getting to know international students and exploring the university. The results of the study show that the duration of orientation training generally varies between two hours and one week, and this time is sufficient for students. However, some students stated that they did not make any personal contribution. This suggests that orientation programs need to be better designed and focus more on students' needs. In conclusion, the research emphasizes that orientation training helps new students adapt to university life and encourages them to establish social relationships. The content, duration and methods of orientation programs should be arranged in accordance with the needs of the students. In this way, orientation training will help students have a more positive and successful university experience. This research provides an important guide for universities to develop their orientation programs.

The objective of this research endeavour is to investigate the impact of the emotional intelligence quotient (EQ) on the job achievement of fire service officers in Ghana. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between emotional intelligence (EQ) and an array of work success indicators, including job satisfaction and job performance, in the context of this particular occupation and culture. Employing a mixed-methods strategy, the investigation gathered data from qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys administered to fifty fire service officers stationed at the Ghana National Headquarters in Accra. A noteworthy correlation was observed between EQ and job satisfaction, and EQ had a substantial effect on job performance, according to the study. The significance of EQ in facilitating productive team dynamics and the criticality of emotional resilience in high-stress situations were further underscored by qualitative themes. The results of this study indicate that emotional intelligence (EQ) may play a significant role in guiding human resource policies for high-stress occupations. Furthermore, EQ may guide the creation of specialised emotional intelligence training programmes. This research adds to the extant body of literature on emotional intelligence by providing perspectives from a distinct occupational and cultural context.

This study aims to revisit the pattern of transformational leadership in improving the quality of performance. This is generally motivated by the existence of decentralization in the world of education, where the madrasah head is given freedom to make decisions in the madrasah environment. Therefore, the leadership style of the madrasah head will affect the quality of all elements in the madrasah environment. This condition is in response to the number of educators who are indifferent to increasing their competence as educators, which affects the quality of their performance. Finally, there is a sense of discomfort in the process of subordinate performance. The main purpose of transformational leadership is presented in educational institutions to improve the quality of performance by implementing its major theories, namely, Idealized Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual stimulation, Individual Consideration. In order to provide an academic framework, this study uses a qualitative approach with the type of field research through primary sources conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation steps that are then carried out through data reduction, data display, and data verification. The findings in this study indicate the following: 1) the implementation of transformational leadership of madrasah principals in building subordinate trust, 2) implementation in building motivation to subordinates is carried out by madrasah principals by providing rewards and punishments to subordinates in an effort to provide appreciation, 3) implementation in building the innovation power of subordinates is carried out by the madrasah head by analyzing the performance of subordinates, building communication with subordinates, making clear job descriptions, and actualizing subordinate thoughts about their potential so that subordinates are able to improve their quality, 4) implementation in building the individual abilities of subordinates carried out by the madrasah head, namely by creating discussion space between subordinates, building subordinate thinking, and increasing workshops in madrasah.

This research study was aimed to study the effect of autonomous and controlled motivational behaviour and student academic outcomes in upper primary school in a remote setting on learning. This cross-sectional survey was conducted to determine the extent to which autonomous and controlled forms of motivation were prevalent in upper-primary school students. Data was collected through the administration of Academic Self-Regulation Questionnaire from 265 students in upper-primary school in Mongar district of Bhutan. Based on the descriptive and inferential analysis, it was found that the controlled forms of motivation resulting from external and introjected regulations are negatively associated with academic achievement. Autonomous forms of motivation, mainly resulting from identified regulation were positively related to academic outcomes, while surprisingly intrinsic motivation was negatively associated with academic outcomes. Although identified regulation broadly falls under controlled form of motivation, the locus of control is internal and thus is autonomous in nature. The results indicate that the majority of the students conform to identified regulation. Recommendation for aligning teaching practices and assessment policy is made.
