Abstract | There is discernible and growing evidence that learning is faster, measurably better and more productive in a classroom setting when a student attends classes regularly. Each student brings in his/her experience, expertise, strengths and unique learning styles to the class – thus a classroom environment has the potential to create positive externalities through which a student can gain substantially from the strengths of his/her peers. In spite of these avowed objectives and various attendance-monitoring mechanisms, students do remain absent from their classes for a variety of reasons. There are many measurable and non-measurable dimensions on which a student can miss out by not attending a university class; where students from various cultures, languages, and regions intermingle. One of those measurable effects is the academic performance. |
