Abstract

The aim of the present study was to determine the effectiveness of the educational package of the multimedia learning environment model on academic engagement and Academic incivility in students with specific learning disorders. The statistical population included all children with special learning disabilities in the third and fourth grades of primary school in the academic year 2022-2023 in Esfahan, of which 30 were selected in an available manner and finally were randomly divided into two groups of 15 (experimental and control). Participants completed Clark et al.'s (2015) Academic Incivility Questionnaire and Reeve's (2013) Academic Engagement Questionnaire for the pre-test. In the following, the desired training package was implemented for the experimental group for 8 sessions, each session lasting 45-60 minutes. While the group did not receive a training certificate. In the end, the experimental and control groups completed the Academic Incivility Questionnaire and the Academic Engagement Questionnaire as a post-test. Finally, the data were analyzed using SPSS-24 software using the method of variance analysis with repeated measurements. The analysis of the research data showed that the educational package of the multimedia learning environment model has significantly led to the improvement of academic engagement and Academic incivility (p<0.001). Therefore, it can be concluded that the educational package of the multimedia learning environment model was effective in increasing academic engagement and reducing the Academic incivility of students with specific learning disorders and its durability remained after two months.
