Topic- To access the impact of transition to universities affect international student in their
study. A case study on universities of UK.
INTRODUCTION
The transition of universities is one of the difficult systems which can affect the process
of studentof student learning in a wide manner. In schools, the teacher works as to provide
support during this period, but in colleges, the student need to be their wonown personal tutor to
seal with transition of one university to another. Thus, it can be said the transition will promote
various changes as are cultural diversities, teaching attitude of teachers etc. this can affect the
growth and development ofdevelopment of international student (Amaral and et.al., 2018). At
this process the student has to face several kinds of familiar and challenging experience. Thus, it
can be said that the transition in universities can have wide impact on metalmental health of
student in the initial level. The present report will focus over the effect on student learning due to
transition. The report will be conducted with the help of secondary research to have depth
information. The main purpose of study is outline and definitions of terms are provided and to
determine the significance of the study is also discussed.
Rationale behind the study.
The present assignment is need to be undertaken due to several reasons. The transition in
universities is high impacting the mental health of students. This problem can occur many issues

exploring students’ conceptualization of thriving, and to develop a substantive theory of
transition and thriving for Western University students (Dexter and et.al., 2018). Thus, it can be
said that the transition in universities can have wide impact on metalmental health of student in
the initial level. The present report will focus over the effect on student learning due to transition.

Description on various research methodologies.
There are various research philosophies which is defined in following manner as are-
Research philosophies- This is one of the approaches which is essential in relation to
conduct and collect the data in the effectively. Under In this, there are two varieties of methods
to collect the information as arei.e. interpretivism and positivism. For the present assignment, it
is essential to follow the interpretitive. It is related to the human subject and theory. Thus, it can
be said that Interpretive theory relates to humanistic qualitative methods. In addition to this, the
positivist relates to the scientific qualitative method (Amaral and et.al., 2018).
Research approach- This is helpful in order to designing the approach of research in the
an effective manner. This is helpful in order to achieve and determine the tools in which the
process of research can be undertaken. There are two kinds of research approaches as which are
inductive and deductive (Dexter and et.al., 2018). Thus, it can be said that Deductive approach is
in relation to testing of theory. The Inductive approach is related to generation of theory which
is based on one specific data. In addition to this is need to be taken in effectively manner so that
transition in universities can understand in effective mode.
Research design- In this there is need to design Aims and purpose of the assignment
effectively. This is one of the effective approach in order to maintaining of reliable, ethical and
those techniques with the aim of which the purpose of assignment can be full-filled. The research
design as are experimental and interpretative etc.
Research Technique- This is the process which is related to collect the wide information
about the transition of universities. Under In this, there are two kinds of techniques as which are
qualitative and quantitativeand quantitative. In this the qualitative techniques will be useful in
relation to determine the depth information about by conduct proper research. Under this it can
be stated that qualitative methods will be useful in relation to exploring and describing the
experiences of college students, especially when little is known about the topic of interest.
Data collection- in this information is need to be conducted effectively. There are two
kind s of methods in data collection as which are primary and secondary. Thus, to accomplish the
objective of present assignment, it is essential to undertake secondary method. With the help of
2

which depth information can be gathered. Thus, it can be said that the transition in universities
can have a wide impact on metalmental health of student in at the initial level. The present report
will focus over the effect on student learning due to transition by undertaking the method of
secondary data.
Data sampling- There are two kinds of methods of sampling as arei.e. probabilistic and
non-probablistcprobabilistic. The probabilistic method is related to the size of population and
non probabilisticnon-probabilistic method is not cover in relation to it.
Ethical consideration- In order to accomplish aim of present assignment, it is important
to follow all the ethical morale. The confidentiality in relation to assignment is needed to be
maintained so that study can be conducted in a proper manner.
Approaches to secondary research.
The transition in student can have wide impact on mental health. According to the view
of Katira, Garrahan and Mandadapu, (2018) this system can affect student mental health
problems, in order to gain knowledge about students’ transition experiences and to pull together
from those experiences factors that could affect mental health and overall boom of particular
individual. As per the view of Hunsaker, (2018) Rotsaert, Panadero and Schellens, (2018)
transition in universities can impact the overall learning of student. This can also have positive
impact in the learning capacity of individual. As per the view of Dunkley and et.al., (2018)
suggest that students’ essay writing skills develop throughout their first year as they become
more aware of the expectations of their teachers and their own essay writing skills. In order to
have idea about this, the study examines the extent to which anticipate the essay production and
it shared between students and their teachers, and also examines both the student and teacher
approach to have interpretation of all the learning stuff in significant manner. In contrary to
Bottge, Cohen and Choi, (2018) states that the transition can affect the metal health of the
student in highly manner and it works as to potentially trigger metal health problem after having
transition in universities by student. According to the view of Katira, Garrahan and Mandadapu,
(2018) it is stated that students transition to university, they actually experience multiple
transitions within a short period such as are growth and development, high impact over mental
health. Sample latest

LITERATURE REVIEW
To examine impact of transition on the mental health of students-
According to the view of Rotsaert, Panadero and Schellens, (2018) states that Transition
movement is shows how successful and inspiring community-based initiatives can visualize and
take practical positive steps to a better, healthier, and more fun future, making local communities
more sustainable and resilient with the help of which student can able to have growth and
development in their future. Transition Universities also use the same core values and tools
which will help as to provide Transition movement to create positive empowering change within
the university and provide effective learning to students. As per the view of Katira, Garrahan and
Mandadapu, (2018) transition in universities can also work as to have wide impact over the
mental health of individual. In addition to this, in order to have adjustments in their outer
surroundings understudies moreover experience character and self-obligation changes. Under
this progress they are required to wind up more autonomous, as they accept accountability for
their well-being, funds In this manner they work as to become more responsible. Thus, it can be
said that the transition in universities are having both kind of effects positive as well negative. In
contrary to Katira, Garrahan and Mandadapu, (2018) it states that as compare to their high school
experience, first year students scrap a more demanding workload, greater interdependency, and
increased responsibility for managing their time, studies, self-care, and finances.
To determine the factor that which can impact over the transition to universities
According to states that transition can affect the mental health of student, Sometimes
to study in better colleges they need to stay away from their families for longer period. It is
essential to understand the completion of degree is perquisite for success in relation to career. In
contrary to Amaral and et.al., (2018) states that the stress level to college student is on high
mode, due to this there is increment in utilization of mental health. According to the view of
Katira, Garrahan and Mandadapu, (2018) it states that moving from school to college is one of
significant steps towards adulthood. There is also emotional feeling attached due to separation of
child to their parents. In this they need to face various kind of trouble as are arranging food for
themselves, placed things in systematic manner, this type of things will motivate them to do
things form them in expertise manner and student becomes matured and strong. At this stage it is
essential to give up some parental control. In addition to this, Beach, Lucking and Terrones,
4

(2018) states that parents should arrange necessary services for their child with effective learning
activities in relation to learning disability, mental illness or physical condition should be done
preventive.
According to Amaral and et.al., (2018) states that College staffs need to take various
initiatives in relation to provide specially training services to work with students of this age and
these specialists should be identified prior to arrival. This is the age where student has to face
various challenges and it is useful to have discussion on specific issues, since college students
are usually confront with situations as are to get involving in sex, drugs and alcohol, as well as
tough academic and interpersonal issues. In this manner it is the responsibility of parents and
teacher to take steps in regard to it but without moralizing or criticizing, even young adults can
also get the benefit from hearing their parents' views on these issues. In order to have positive
impact of transition the student need to Explore new interests, discover new place, and meet new
people. This will be helpful to have effective learning of new things. Thus, it can true to state
that With respect to academics, students today are facing increasing pressure to know what they
want to do in their career, with the help of selecting one suitable career path and plan for their
futures they can make it brighter. This kind of pressure is causing unfortunate substance abuse;
anxiety and even depression in order to cope with this student are getting involved in activities as
are sex, drugs and alcohol, as well as tough academic and interpersonal issues.
CONCLUSION
Based on above report it can be concluded that transition of universities is one of the
difficult system which can affect the process of student learning in wide manner. In schools the
teacher works as to provide support during this period, but in colleges the student need to be their
wonown personal tutor to seal with transition of one university to another. Thus, it can be said
that the transition in universities can have wide impact on metalmental health of student in the
initial level. The present report has covered with various factors as to have major effect on
student learning due to transition. In addition to this there are variousseveral of things as are
secondary research and all things are included in order to determine the effect of transition to
universities affect international student in their study.
