Abstract
This study developed a conceptual framework on interactivity in the classroom, interactivity within Learning Management System (LMS), student engagement and satisfaction as four key underlying factors that will enhance learning outcomes. Furthermore, the study investigates interactivity in the classroom and within LMS with respect to student engagement, student satisfaction and its impact on educational learning outcome. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Based on the survey data from 178 respondents, SEM was employed to assess the model. We also experimentally assessed the relationship between the variables of the model by employing SEM method. However, the findings indicate that high interactivity in the classroom has a positive influence on student engagement and student satisfaction towards improving student learning outcomes. Also, the study shed more light on the moderate level of interactivity within the LMS by the student and pointed out which areas should be improved. The result further indicates the importance of interactivity in the educational environment and points to the need for more interactivity in the learning space of educational institutions.
