“…Whilst the professional affordances of postgraduate education are becoming increasingly acknowledged (Sbaffi & Bennett 2019) within the context of knowledge economies, higher education institutions continue to experience challenges in resourcing programmes adequately and facilitating student transitions into postgraduate studies, despite efforts to set up dedicated structures which acknowledge the specific requirements for learning the skills set expected (Crane et al 2016;Steele 2015). Student surveys reveal the manifold difficulties such as academic writing, understanding of the research language, autonomy and criticality, indicating the steep learning curve for students (McPherson et al 2017).…”

Alternation research groups have made decisive and far-sighted knowledge production contributions in the interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities arena for more than twenty-five years. From 2020, it adds the Alternation African Scholarship Book Series (AASBS) to its research outputs system. Via its incisive thematically-focused inter-, multi-, and transdisciplinary, as well as digitally-informed, research approaches, the AASBS not only advances the frontiers of knowledge in Africa's institutions of Higher Learning in designated focus areas, but also critically generates scholarship of, by and with the people(s) of our continent. Historically the research draws on the rich traditions of interactive African intellectualisations, from its earliest civilisations, through struggles for liberation and freedom, to independence and growth. It opens up future epistemic opportunities through intellectual initiative and resourcefulness, while critically contributing to the international advancement of knowledge on all relevant levels. Contributing to research-led constructive, transformative and substantial discourse development in our programmes and disciplines, it also aims at impacting the wellbeing of our people foundationally and all-inclusively in the present. All forms of scientific and social challenge which Africa's societies and communities face, need to be problematised and researched in the Arts and Humanities, in the interest of cooperative and conscientious responsible knowledge generation and foundational conceptual and methodological research impacts. We serve the hopes and aspirations of the people of Africa.AASBS is committed to the highest levels of inclusive, factually correct and critical, sociallyresponsive and socially-accountable evidence-based research analyses and outputs. Each chapter is reviewed by at least two independent peer reviewers. Through its editing and peerreview system, each volume also builds research leadership, research expertise, and interactive research acumen, capacity and capabilities.

“…Other studies (Chapman, 2003; Fisher et al, 2021) focus on engagement being a balance of cognitive and emotional commitment. Students will adapt their degree of engagement as a means to satisfy their goals (Yorke, 2006) choosing what to participate in, contribute to and complete, to enhance their learning experience (Kinzie & Gonyea, 2009; Steele, 2015). Ultimately, deep learning practices will encourage engagement (Hockings et al, 2008) so that student-teacher interaction, therefore, becomes a fundamental component where the actions of the academic remain a central focus to high student commitment (Zepke et al, 2014).…”

Multimodal learning via the use of smart devices, online social interactions, and intuitive communication platforms are fundamentally changing teaching and learning settings. Consequently, educators face unique challenges around student engagement as learners increasingly look to the use of technology-enabled activities for meaningful collaboration. Within this context, this research explores the role of digital storytelling in promoting perceived individual student and group engagement, and how these interact with group functioning, in a postgraduate marketing subject. We evaluate the implementation of this assessment as an avenue to optimize the benefits of the blended learning setting. It contributes to understanding by incorporating the concept of collective, or collaborative engagement where there is a scarcity of research despite the widespread application of group assessment in business education, and marketing education in particular. We employed canonical correlation analysis as an exploratory technique to gain initial insight into its efficacy for student engagement. We contend that digital storytelling shows promise as an inherently social and interactive learning task to provide an authentic assessment for a range of marketing problems. In turn, these attributes provide a stimulating vehicle for student engagement that can promote learning and satisfaction.

“…Bilişsel katılım öz düzenleme, gelişmiş öğrenme stratejileri uygulama ve öğrenme sürecine bireysel olarak katılma olarak düşünülmektedir (Fredricks vd., 2004;Parsons ve Taylor, 2011;Reeve ve Tseng, 2011;Steele, 2015). Öğrenci katılımında öz yeterlilik, motivasyon, öğretmenlerin isteklerini, dikkatlerini ve beklentilerini algılama gibi öğrencilerin okulla, öğretmenleriyle, diğer öğrencilerle ve kendileriyle olan algıları ve inançları bilişsel katılım ile ilgili boyutları kapsamaktadır (Jimerson, Campos ve Greif, 2003 Görüldüğü üzere, birçok araştırmacı öğrenci katılımı kavramına farklı açılardan bakmış ve farklı tanımlar geliştirmişlerdir.…”

Öz: Bu çalışmada, Mazer (2012) tarafından geliştirilmiş olan Student Engagement Scale (Öğrenci Katılım Ölçeği, ÖKÖ)'i Türkçeye uyarlamak, geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizlerini yapmak amaçlanmıştır. Üniversite öğrencilerinin katılımını ölçmek için geliştirilen ÖKÖ, 13 madde ve 4 boyuttan (sınıf içi sessiz davranışlar, sınıf içi sözlü davranışlar, ders içeriği hakkında düşünme ve sınıf dışı davranışlar) oluşmaktadır. İki ayrı çalışma yapılmıştır. Birinci çalışmada İngiliz Dili Eğitimi Programı öğrencilerine (n= 25) ölçeğin İngilizce ve Türkçe formu 2 hafta ara ile verilmiştir. Katılımcıların iki forma verdikleri yanıtlar arasında yüksek düzeyde ve pozitif yönde ilişki bulunmuştur (r= .80). İkinci çalışmaya ise matematik ve sınıf öğretmenliği bölümlerinde okuyan 146 öğretmen adayı katılmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonuçları, önerilen modelin, veri seti ile iyi uyum sağladığını göstermiştir. Ölçeğin alt boyutlarına ait Cronbach Alpha güvenirlik katsayıları .70 ile .91 arasında değişmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, ÖKÜ'nün geçerliliği ve güvenirliği hakkında delil sağlamıştır. Anahtar sözcükler: Öğrenci katılımı, ölçek uyarlama, üniversite öğrencileriAbstract: This study aimed to adapt Student Engagement Scale (SES, Mazer, 2012) to Turkish and conduct validity and reliability analyses. SES, developed to measure university students' engagement, consists of 13 items and 4 dimensions (silent in class behaviors, oral in class behaviors, thinking about course content, and out of class behavior). Two separate studies were conducted. In the first study, students in English language teaching program (n= 25) completed English and Turkish versions of the scale in two weeks
