Abstract: Background: Transfer of learning is stated as the application of skills, knowledge, and other attributes that a person learns in one situation and then in another situation. Students in academia learn new things in their day-to-day lives. In their classroom lectures, workgroup discussions, informal meetings, senior-junior groups, and extracurricular activities. All these learnings have feedback, which can modify our next action. The positive and negative feedback can impact the academic performance of the students.
Materials and Methods: In this study students' CGPA is taken as a dependent variable and participation in informal groups, active in social groups, discussion about studies via social media, note collection, and career-related discussion as independent variables. Mean, standard deviation, person correlation coefficient, and regression analysis are done....
