The research studies differ among themselves depending on the theoretical starting points and the choice of methodological approaches. The research findings clearly point to certain laws when it comes to student engagement as well as its importance for student achievements in the study process. The teacher’s sincere concern for the students and timely support in learning proved to be very significant aspects of the students’ understanding of the study process. Accordingly, one of the most effective ways in which institutions can provide adequate support to students and encourage them to engage is the preparation and training of teachers for an interactive approach.
