This study aims to investigate whether individual interest and achievement-goal orientations facilitate learning and task performance. The effects of individual interest, achievement-goal orientation, and their interactions on rote learning, meaningful learning, and worthy performance were investigated. A hundred eighty-seven participants were grouped based on their individual interest levels and achievement-goal type toward the Critical Information Seeking and Reporting course. Participants’ initial goal orientations were fostered via experimental manipulations to create more distinctive achievement-goal groups. To obtain data regarding rote learning and meaningful learning, an achievement test and performance task were designed and developed respectively. Participants’ task performance score was divided by their cognitive effort score to calculate their worthy performance. The results indicate that a significant main effect of goal-orientation exists on rote learning, a significant interaction effect between individual interest and achievement goal-orientation exists on meaningful learning, significant main effects of both independent variables exist on worthy performance.

Social media platforms are extensively used in the present era and are now considered as an essential part of communication. Social media usage (SMU) within an organization distracts employees and may adversely affect their performance. However, SMU also significantly influences employees to collaborate and share information about their jobs as well as professional knowledge. This study examines the role of SMU on job performance, taking into consideration the influences of social capital and knowledge sharing. The proposed model has been empirically tested through a survey of 608 faculty from Indian public universities. The results highlight that social media usage has a significant influence on social capital, which further influence employees’ knowledge sharing and enhances job performance. Social media usage among employees plays an important role in the development of their social capital, which enables them to learn and build knowledge about jobs and, consequently, to perform tasks more effectively.
