2. What is Academic
Success/Achievement?
“Academic achievement or (academic) performance is the
outcome of education — the extent to which a student,
teacher or institution has achieved their educational goals.
Academic achievement is commonly measured by
examinations or continuous assessment but there is no
general agreement on how it is best tested or which aspects
are most important — procedural knowledge such
as skills or declarative knowledge such as facts.”
