Abstract

          This research aims to analyze the success factors in blended learning amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Data were collected from 400 students enrolled in the academic year 2021. The sample size was determined using specialized software, and a multi-stage random sampling method was employed. This descriptive research focuses on variables including socioeconomic status (SES), learner interaction (INT), academic achievement (ACH), and achievement motivation (MOT). Data collection instruments included: (1) a socioeconomic status scale, (2) a learner interaction scale, (3) an academic achievement test, and (4) an achievement motivation scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and path analysis. The results indicated that the developed model of success factors in blended learning aligns with empirical data (Chi-Square=4.945, df =5, p=.604, RMSEA=0.000, GFI=.996, CFI=.959).
