New research and recent analysis reveal that the habits of parents significantly shape the academic and emotional success of their children. Drawing inspiration from a widely-shared article in The Times of India on the distinctive behaviors of parents supporting top-scoring students, combined with insights from regional studies and Thailand’s evolving parenting landscape, this report explores the practical strategies and evolving programs that are driving children’s achievement—both in Thai classrooms and around the world.

A new spotlight on childhood education has emerged as international reports highlight eight effective memory tricks to help children retain knowledge and excel in their studies, offering hope to many Thai families navigating the demands of school exams and rapidly changing curricula. According to a recent article by The Times of India (timesofindia.indiatimes.com), these techniques are quickly gaining traction among teachers and parents worldwide, promising practical, science-backed solutions for memory improvement.

A new international study has found that regular physical exercise can significantly enhance the academic self-confidence of college students, with personality traits like future orientation and mental resilience playing a pivotal mediating role. The findings could inform Thai universities and educators looking to support students’ mental well-being and scholastic achievement amid mounting educational challenges.

The research, conducted with 624 university students, examined how physical activity contributes not only to physical health, but to psychological traits that underpin academic success. By using structured questionnaires and advanced statistical analysis, the investigators uncovered a strong positive link between engaging in exercise and students’ belief in their ability to excel academically—what psychologists call “academic self-efficacy” (Frontiers in Psychology).
