The Role Of Academic Flow In The Academic Achievement Of Secondary School Students

Abstract

The concept of learning flow plays a crucial role in influencing academic achievement. When students encounter challenging tasks, experiencing frustration can hinder their ability to effectively engage with their studies. Without a productive learning process, students may struggle to meet academic expectations, which can lead to disengagement or even dropout. Therefore, fostering a positive learning flow is key to overcoming obstacles and promoting persistence. The pursuit of academic excellence remains a central goal for students, as it not only shapes their educational journey but also unlocks future career opportunities and contributes to personal growth. Flow, often described as a state of intense focus and immersion in a task, has become a critical factor in determining academic success. When students enter this state, they are able to push through difficulties and perform at their highest potential, ultimately enhancing both their educational outcomes and overall well-being. The study sample comprised secondary school students enrolled in CBSE schools under the Central Government in the Vijayawada region, Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh. A total of 1000 of 9th-grade students were selected, representing both rural and urban areas within the district. The findings indicated that there is a positive correlation between Academic Flow and Academic Achievement among secondary school students.
