Abstract

Academic achievement is one of the major subjects in the educational researches.Academic achievement is defined as the outcomes of the education. Preventingstudents from failure is related with identifying the factors affecting the achievement.By defining the important factors affecting the students’ achievement, failure can beunder controlled [Ozguven, 1974]. Education is a complex process and many factorsdirectly or indirectly may affect achievement. Besides, it is difficult to properly definethe major factors influencing students' achievement. Although researchers haveidentified several factors affecting the student achievement, there are still somearguments about them. Some researchers attribute the student’s achievement to theschool; others indicate that the school makes little impact on academic outcome. Otherresearchers say that the effective teacher is the only one who can play the main role interms of student progress. All the factors such as teacher, school context, classroomcontext and the community around the school contribute or impact student’sachievement somehow [Harris, 1999]. In all these thoughts, we can see that there arethree common factors affecting the students’ achievement. Factors related withteachers, students and lastly environment. All these factors are affective on thestudents’ grade more or less. In our research, we handle the students’ perspective andsearch for the factors affecting the students’ achievement i n their demographic itemssuch as age, sex, and their academic background such as high school type, grade,University Entrance score, their families’ social and economic status, income, housing,computer knowledge skills and social behaviors and mannerism. The aim of this studyis to find out what kinds of factors have effects on students’ exam success among thestudents at School of Transportation and Logistics by using the path analysis.
