Engagement is a potentially useful construct for | |
organizing strategies to support adjustment, achievement | |
and retention in school, particularly among our most | |
vulnerable student populations. Even if high quality | |
schooling is available, high levels of achievement will | |
implicitly demand engagement on the part of students. | |
This initial analysis, drawn from the larger project, | |
concentrates on a set of individual and interpersonal | |
influences on engagement for a multiethnic sample of high | |
school students. This definition of engagement comprises | |
two components, behavior and affect. Using quantitative | |
and qualitative indicators, the researchers assessed | |
perceived teacher support, perceived ethnic relations, | |
future expectations, and behavioral and affective | |
engagement in a high school sample of Latino and Anglo | |
students. It was hypothesized that student engagement, | |
school climate, and student expectations would be related | |
in specific ways, and those relationships would differ | |
for Latino and Anglo youth. Findings indicate that | |
perceptions of relationships with teachers are | |
significant influences on student engagement, | |
achievement, and expectations. (Contains 36 references | |
and 3 tables.) (Author) | |
