ABSTRACT

Web-based learning is evolving as the new architype of modern education. The present research examined the extent to which student engagement (Vigor, Dedication, and Absorption) is affected by Web-Based Learning Resources (Availability, Usefulness, Easiness and Quality). Further, this study investigated the effects of need for achievement and self-efficacy on Web-Based Learning Resources (WBLR). The proposed study model was tested by employing higher order structural equation modeling. The results of the study established positive significant effect of WBLR on student engagement. Based on the results of this study, it is argued that the instructors of management education may efficiently assign their time and efforts to improve the student engagement.
