“…Student interaction with teachers and peers was found to predict increased engagement, aligning with Lei et al (2018). The 21st-century classroom emphasizes a holistic approach to engagement, encompassing emotional, cognitive, and behavioral aspects (Karafil & Oguz, 2019). Teacher factors, as highlighted by Delfino (2019), significantly influence engagement, a finding supported by Ginting (2022) and Almarghani and Mijatovic (2017) who emphasize the role of motivation, active learning, and teacher influence on student engagement.…”

Junior high school is pivotal for developing skills and fostering a lasting interest in science subjects. Understanding the components that either lead to or hinder academic engagement is essential. This research investigates an indicator of the learning environment that significantly influences academic engagement in science of junior high school students. A quantitative descriptive correlational design was employed with 142 junior high school students selected through universal sampling, utilizing adapted instruments to assess the learning environment and academic engagement in science, and the gathered data was statistically analyzed using mean, standard deviation, Pearson r, and linear regression. This study revealed that the level of learning environment and academic engagement in science of junior high school students were both high. In addition, the study found a significant relationship between the learning environment and academic engagement in science among junior high school students. Moreover, the science learning environment indicators that significantly influence the academic engagement of junior high school students were the enjoyment of science lessons and investigation, highlighting the importance of cultivating a positive and enjoyable science learning experience, and the promotion of hands-on investigation in the educational process. Recommendations include fostering an improved overall student learning environment, schools continuing their commitment to quality education, teachers refining instructional delivery, and aligning science activities with student needs. This research is a valuable resource for future studies to contribute to enhancing knowledge in science education.

The objective of the study is to investigate the factors affecting English Language Engagement among the Law Department Learners in Papua. This study is qualitative by implementing a cross-sectional design to capture a snapshot of English language engagement among the Law Department Learners in Papua. A diverse sample of the Law Department Learners in Papua from multiple schools had been selected. The sample included learners from different grades, socio-economic backgrounds, and language proficiency levels in the Law Department Learners in Papua. Qualitative data from open-ended questions were subjected to thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns and themes related to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. This study confirms that conventional monotony in instructional materials and insufficient reading practice are the main factors that make the Law Department Learners in Papua lazy to learn English in the classroom. It is recommended to delve deeper into the identified factors of conventional monotony in instructional materials and insufficient reading practice as contributors to students' lack of motivation in learning English in the classroom.

“…This study upholds that online learning during this pandemic is challenged with a lot of setbacks ranging from internet connectivity issues, availability of internet for students, equality in learning, material selection, anxiety among students, resources for online learning, and student engagement during online learning. Research on anxiety has shown that high anxiety level impedes on good academic performance of students (Ironsi, 2017). Very limited research has been carried out to examine these issues to seek for ways to tackle them.…”

In unprecedented times like this when societies are experiencing lockdowns, social, and physical distancing, remote online learning becomes the only option for most educational institutions. There is a need for English Language Teaching practitioners to devise strategic means either through technology or without to meaningfully engage the students. This study examines learners’ engagement strategies used during remote online learning at Northern Cyprus. To achieve this, a mixed research design was used to elicit information from 63 ELT teachers who were purposively chosen for this research. A 3-credit English language course was used for the study. The course was taught and teachers deployed the use of engagement tools, skills, and resources during the remote online learning teaching period, which lasted for 8 weeks and 2 days. A structured questionnaire consisting of two sections; A and B were used to elicit information on the resources used for student engagements and its effectiveness as well while a semi-structured interview question was used to interview randomly chosen participants. These instruments were faced, and the construct validated while the questionnaire was piloted, a Cronbach alpha reliability index of 0.77 was obtained. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the questionnaire to determine the mean responses of the participants with regards to resources used for student engagement and their effectiveness. Findings obtained were used to conclusions that online resources like Padlets, Mentimeter, nearpod, Flipgrid, Zoom breakout room are effective and efficient tool for student engagement during remote online learning. Project based learning and collaborative based teaching are strategies that could be adopted to enhance student engagement while teaching
