Abstract

To explore the influencing factors of junior high school students’ learning engagement in the smart classroom, this paper took eighth-grade students in a public junior high school in the northwest of China as the subjects, analyzed the relevant factors of junior high school students’ learning engagement in the smart classroom through questionnaire survey. In addition, the structural equation model is used to verify and analyze the internal logical relationship among self-efficacy, performance expectancy, teacher support, and students’ learning engagement in the smart classroom. The results indicated that the self-efficacy and performance expectancy of junior high school students in the smart classroom had a significant positive impact on students’ behavioral engagement, emotional engagement, and cognitive engagement, while teacher support had a significant positive impact on students’ behavioral engagement and emotional engagement.
