Factors Affecting Secondary Level Students' Goal Achievement Performance and Self-Worth in L2 Learning in Pakistan

Abstract

    Education at secondary and higher secondary levels serves a crucial role in helping students create their careers. However,the role of the teachers is crucial in the growth of new future professionals. This study investigated the self-awareness role in inspiring upper secondary school teachers and students in Pakistan. This study used a qualitative approach and interviews were used to gather the data to grasp the opinions of (6 males and 6 females = 12) secondary and higher secondary teachers at six different institutions.This study has identified the factors: lack of logistic support, extensive use of mobile phones,discrimination based on abilities and rote learning affecting the Pakistani secondary students’ goal achievement performance and self-worth. With an adequate supply of logistics, training to use technological aids for productive purposes and individual support can help to overcome the problems to help students excel in education.
