This research aimed to study the effects of academic engagement, quality of education, and peer-assisted learning on academic motivation as an influential variable in the academic achievement of vocational, and technical schools’ students. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, a correlation matrix, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modeling. As a result of the structural equation model, academic engagement (T=4.49), peer-assisted learning (T=2.38), and quality of education (T=3.04) have a greater direct influence on motivation than academic achievement (T=1.96). The only indirect effect on the quality of education (T=2.01) is significant, thus mediating the role of academic motivation in the academic achievement confirmed the effectiveness of quality of education. The findings and outcomes of this study are useful for teachers, principals, and policymakers in the field of education to improve the quality of teaching, and learning. |
