Abstract:

This study focuses on the relationship between teacher misconduct and college students’ learning engagement. A standardized questionnaire was used to investigate 2094 students of different majors in 7 universities in Shandong Province of China. Their grades ranged from first grade to senior grade. The results show that the overall performance of college students is better; In the view of college students, the teacher’s misconduct is not serious, and the teacher’s teaching behavior makes them feel more satisfied. There is a significant negative correlation between learning engagement and teacher misbehavior. Teacher misbehavior can significantly negatively predict learning engagement. Based on this, “the thrive & flourish: sustaining student success program” is proposed, and together these strategies emphasize the importance of supportive educational environments, positive psychological interventions, effective classroom management, and personalized support.
