While social support has been found to be…

Despite the fact that interaction with others (learners and instructors) impacts online learning engagement (OLE), it remains unclear how and when interaction relates to OLE. By integrating social-cognitive theory with ecological systems theory, we theorise a moderated mediation model that links interaction to OLE by exploring the effects of…

As online course delivery becomes an ever-increasing modality in marketing education, it is essential that marketing educators understand the unique factors that drive student course engagement in online versus face-to-face courses.
