Luận án Tác động của gắn kết sinh viên đến các kết quả đào tạo đầu ra và năng lực sinh viên – Nghiên cứu đối với sinh viên ngành kinh doanh và quản trị tại Việt Nam

In this dissertation, the author has reviewed the literature on student engagement to identify a research gap regarding the impacts of student engagement on student learning outcomes and competencies in higher education with regards to the business and management discipline. By borrowing the lens of adult learning theories in examining impacts of student engagement on student learning outcomes and competencies, the research has shown a good alignment between experiential learning theory and social learning theory and student engagement, with which they can explain the learning process and mechanism to develop students' desirable outcomes in higher education. The extensive literature review in this research has provided a foundation to propose an integrated structure of student engagement in a holistic approach. Based on this integrated model, and the relationships between student engagement and learning outcomes and competencies, the author has established a theoretical linkage and developed theoretical hypothesis. A qualitative research was taken place to develop additional measurement items to measure student engagement. The measurement instrument was then validated by a pilot test before the official survey.
