Text of Note

As access to post-secondary education consistently increases in Indonesia, the government and tertiary education institutions have devoted more support for students to facilitate their pursuit of academic success, represented by college grades. However, college grades remain problematic and the problem has led to dropouts among Indonesian undergraduates. The literature suggests that student engagement can serve as an antidote to the problematic learning outcomes (Kuh, 2003; McCormick, Gonyea, & Kinzie, 2013' Zepke, 2017). Thus, this study sought to understand the effects of engagement on college grades in the Indonesian context. To achieve the goal, this study focused on three areas. First, the study identified the relationship between student engagement and GPA. Second, the study examined the correlation of student engagement and background characteristics (academic level, gender, major, working, and first-generation). Third, this study attempted to examine the extent to which student engagement affected GPA after controlling for background characteristics. Descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and a logistics regression were performed in the analysis.
