How Student Engagement Can Improve the Quality of Undergraduate Education Using Course Experience as a Mediating Variable

The intent of this paper is to analyse the correlation between student engagement and course experience as a mechanism for improvement of the quality of undergraduate education. Traditionally, research focused separately on student engagement or course experience but it is to be argued that the later can be perceived as a mediating variable onto assessing student engagement as a tool for measurement and improvement of the undergraduate education. Additionally, is to be argued that the critique upon the student engagement and course experience concepts contributes to their further development.
