An overview on extracurricular activities

Extracurricular have become a significant part of students’ school lives, with many schools dedicating significant resources to them. Our study proposed three main theoretical frameworks to explain the effect of ECA involvement on students’ academic performance. We urge further study on the effect of ECA involvement in order to add to the existing body of research in the accounting education literature about the factors that influence students’ academic success. Students engage in extracurricular activities gain from the many opportunities available to them. Having better grades, higher standardized test scores and educational achievement, attending school more frequently, and having a higher self-concept were all advantages of participating in extracurricular activities. Out-of-school activities taught participants skills like teamwork and leadership while lowering the likelihood of alcohol and illicit drug use, as well as other problem behaviors.
