"The relationship between persistence, academic engagement and academic achievement\r\namong post graduate students of OUM"^^ . "Self directed and self manage learning is one of the pillar for lifelong learning. Learners’ stamina\r\nto sustain as self directed learners is vital for their academic success. This paper examines the\r\nassociation between persistence, academic engagement, and academic performance among\r\npost graduate students in an Open and Distance Learning Institution. The logistic regression\r\nwas used to model the relationship while the Receiver Operating Curve (ROC) curve was used\r\nto assess the sensitivity and specificity of the predictive model. In this cross sectional a total of\r\n390 students enrolled in various Master degree programs at OUM answer a self administered\r\nquestionnaire. Academic performance was compared with students’ perceived engagement in\r\nacademic activities, and persistence in studies.\r\nAmong the significant predictors of academic performance are classroom and cognitive\r\nemphasis (components of engagement), and academic integration, service satisfaction,\r\nacademic conscientiousness and degree commitment (components of persistence). Students\r\nwith favorable ratings on their academic engagement and persistence in studies tend to do\r\nbetter academically. The statistical model predicting these relationships is 83.33% sensitive and\r\n91.04% specific. Using student engagement and persistence as predictors of academic\r\nachievement would enable the academic institutions to identify ‘at risk’ students much earlier\r\ncompared to using CGPA.
