Small Class Size Analysis

Reduction of class size is better for academic performance of student and it is supported by several experimental researches one of them is the analysis of star. According to Jeremy Finn who is from State University of new York and Charles M. Achilles who is from Michigan University they state that small class size has good effect on student’s academic achievement. Finn analyze that the students who study in small class size outperformed balance in normal sized classes by fifth of average difference and it is a large jump to achieve academic success generally in first grade students. Also, it persists in upper elementary levels even if they come back to the large class size. In addition, he concluded in order to know how big difference small

According to the (Ford, 2003)research, small class size allows almost daily session in which there is a stress on high schools students to read individually at this crucial time in children’s reading development. In addition, small class size has positive impact on student’s performance. And, the students who study in small class sizes pay more attention to their studies and they do well on the tests. According to some anecdotal observational study shows that when secondary students are studying in smaller classes, they spend much time on task and paying attention on learning and the rates of negative behavior will be low (Haimson, 2010).Although, large class size in different countries has good impact on student’s achievement for example; in Japan and other developed Asian countries the students Asian countries are the best in the world because the students do well on the test especially in mathematics and science. However, the numbers of students are forty for one instructor and its standard in some Asian countries (Zorpette, 2001). Although, the students do well in larger class size in Japan and other developing countries but it just happens in these countries while, some research as have prove that there are some counties that the number of students are more in the classes but they do not do well in test for example

The teachers will have more time to spend on different tasks and assignments and can give greater attention to struggling students. When there is less noise in classroom the teachers spend more time on doing tasks so, it leads students to achieve academic success. According to some educators research smaller numbers of students in a classroom seem to convert in to less noise and gives more time to the teachers to do class work for example, teachers can divide the students in to group for specific project. Also, small class encourages the teachers to do more discussion, give more writing assignment (Zhrenberg, 2001)According to Lewis who is a specialist in Japanese educational system also he is senior researcher at Mills College the students will be happy to lead the class give the lesson and the students take part on ordering the class. Therefore the teachers rely on the power of reflection rather than giving reward for the students or punishing them. Also, Lewis explains that the Japanese teachers and students spend more time together for example they join schools festivals. Likewise, Lewis says Japan has something that it leads students toward academic achievement (as cited in Zorpette, G, 2001, p.161.). This is the reason why students achieve academic achievement because in Japan
