The Impact of YouTube Usage on Student Engagement: A Correlational Study in Bansalan, Philippines
Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: This study aims to examine the relationship between YouTube usage and student engagement among college students in the Municipality of Bansalan. As YouTube continues to grow as a popular learning platform, understanding its potential impact on student engagement and academic performance is essential (Harper et al., 2023). Employing a correlational research design, data were collected through a self-designed survey questionnaire administered to a stratified random sample of 200 college students. Results revealed a significant positive correlation between YouTube usage and student engagement (r = 0.663, p < .001), suggesting that higher YouTube usage is associated with greater student engagement. Furthermore, regression analysis indicated that YouTube usage accounted for 45.6% of the variance in student engagement (R² = 0.456). These findings offer valuable insights into the role of YouTube in fostering academic engagement and success (Arzaga, 2023; Campeanu et al., 2023).
