Mapping Student Engagement in Diverse Learning Environment in Universities: A Correlational Study

Abstract

The main aim of the correlational research investigation was to examine the complex relationship that exists between student engagement and the learning environment in university settings. The investigation involved a sample of 423 female (227) and 196 male (196) students selected through simple random sampling. These students represent a population of 10,365 BS students from three public sector universities in Punjab, Pakistan. The data was analyzed employing descriptive statistics, including frequencies and percentages, as well as Pearson correlation. A highly positive link was observed between the level of student engagement and the learning environment. This research investigation implies that to optimize student learning outcomes in the current educational landscape, it is crucial to consistently update and enhance university spaces by emphasizing the dynamic relationship between student participation and the environment.
