Growth mindset, Student engagement, Project-Based Learning, StudentsAbstract
In higher education, student engagement is a crucial factor influencing the effectiveness of learning, especially within project-based learning environments that require active participation. One internal factor that is believed to contribute to student engagement is the growth mindset. This study aims to examine the relationship between growth mindset and student engagement among university students in project-based learning at Universitas Negeri Padang. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational method. A total of 407 students participated in the study, selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. The instruments used were the student engagement scale and the growth mindset scale. Data analysis using the Spearman correlation test revealed a significant positive relationship between growth mindset and student engagement (r = 0.704, p < 0.001). These findings suggest that students with a stronger growth mindset tend to exhibit higher levels of engagement in project-based learning. Therefore, learning approaches that promote a growth-oriented mindset in the classroom such as providing feedback focused on process and effort, facilitating discussion spaces, and creating a reflective classroom environment should be strengthened to optimize student engagement in PBL
