Purpose: This study aimed to determine the role of teaching models in academic performance and responsibility among students.
Methodology: The research method was quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design and a control group. The statistical population consisted of all master's students in the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences at Allameh Tabataba'i University in the academic year 2018-2019. The research sample included all students present in two classes selected by convenience sampling. One class was designated as the experimental group and the other as the control group. The experimental group received 12 educational sessions, each lasting 90 minutes, based on the Effective University Teaching Model (Lumen, 1995). The control group was taught using traditional methods without an explicit educational model. The Student Responsibility Questionnaire (Soroush, 2012) was used to measure students' responsibility levels. The students' final exam scores were used as an index of academic performance. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (minimum, maximum, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (covariance analysis test).
Findings: The mean post-test scores for academic performance and responsibility (individual and social) significantly increased compared to the pre-test in the experimental group. However, the mean post-test scores for academic performance and responsibility (individual and social) did not significantly increase compared to the pre-test in the control group. Additionally, the effect size for academic performance (Eta = 0.755), individual responsibility (Eta = 0.718), social responsibility (Eta = 0.710), and overall responsibility (Eta = 0.661) was noted.
Conclusion: The teaching model can have a positive and significant role in enhancing academic performance and individual and social responsibility among students.
