Impact of Classroom Discipline on University-Level Students' Performance in English as a Foreign Language (EFL)

Abstract

The study investigates the influence of classroom discipline on the performance of university-level students in English as a Foreign Language (EFL). Classroom discipline is a pivotal factor in academic settings, significantly affecting students' learning outcomes. However, its specific impact on EFL performance at the university level remains relatively understudied. This research aims to bridge this gap by examining the relationship between classroom discipline and students' EFL performance. The study utilizes a mixed-methods approach, incorporating quantitative analysis of academic performance data alongside qualitative insights gathered through interviews or surveys with students and instructors. The findings are expected to shed light on the importance of maintaining effective classroom discipline for enhancing EFL learning outcomes among university students. This research holds implications for educators, policymakers, and educational institutions striving to optimize teaching and learning environments for EFL instruction at the tertiary level.
