Abstract

The purpose of this qualitative research was to examine the relationships between the resilience quotient (RQ) of undergraduate students in the Educational Psychology and Guidance for Teachers course and their achievement of the course learning outcomes. The sample comprised 38 second-year students from the Faculty of Education of Kasetsart University enrolled in the course during the second semester of the 2023 academic year. The data were collected through in-depth structured interviews consisting of seven open-ended questions and analyzed using a content analysis approach. It was found that the subjects employed various RO-related strategies to achieve the learning goals according to the course learning outcomes, including adopting relaxation techniques, engaging in enjoyable activities and hobbies, and sustaining self-management by prioritizing tasks and making decisions carefully. When faced with academic challenges, especially when the learning outcomes were not met, the subjects mindfully analyzed the problems, set goals for dealing with them, planned accordingly, and took corrective actions. They also sought guidance from instructors and used the feedback in the problem-solving process while maintaining resilience. From the subjects' perspectives, the skills in maintaining RQ during a scholastic journey involved accepting reality, reviewing and addressing problems, and continuously improving oneself. The present study underlines the importance of psychological well-being and effective guidance in students' academic success and personal development.
