Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary Organized leisure time activities have a great influence on different aspects of children’s life and development. These aspects include their emotional and social development, and their academic performance and achievement. Through these data, we focused on the impact that organized leisure activities have on academic performance. Additionally, we incorporated the COVID-19 pandemic factor in the investigation, as it covers two academic years corresponding to the periods before and after the start of the pandemic. The results revealed that participating in academic and artistic activities had a direct impact on the marks that the school-age children obtained while the other leisure types had a limited effect. With the focus on leisure, the study’s results could provide the educational agents with useful information for enhancing students’ academic performance.
