leadership,these studies find that students neither overemphasize nor underemphasize the importance ofleadership as compared to other professional skills and that they rate their competence inleadership skills lower than they do the value of those skills. For instance, in Direito et al.’s study(2012) of Portuguese electrical and electronic engineering students, the participants assignedlower levels of importance to leadership itself than to such leadership-related skills as teamwork,communication, listening, networking, and time management. Their confidence in theirleadership ability was lower than the importance they ascribed to it.

According to Appleton et al.’s [12] findings,indicators are considered as the student levels of connection with learning. This paper on clusteringand grouping technique primarily focused on the indicators, because students are the primary targetin the classroom engagement.Further, Marzano et al acknowledged in their findings that the dynamics of how ateacher/instructor produced the skill required for an effective classroom management is not easyto come by. Therefore, it is necessary that teachers are creative in their teaching strategies.Likewise, in 2011, Li

Finally, for coherent response choice, students’ option made on the Likert scalehad to be coherent with their elaboration. We used Muis et al.’s [12] definitions and range ofacceptable beliefs (See Table 1) to guide our data analysis. We rated the cognitive validity scorefor the three sections first and then summed the scores to obtain a global validity score for eachitem. Based on the coding principles and criteria, two trained raters independently rated eachstudent’s responses of the items in terms of all three aspects of cognitive validity.
