Abstract
The assessment methods and level of instructor support significantly influence student engagement and learning outcomes. The assessment methods used, such as traditional exams, formative assessments, or project-based assessments, can have a significant impact on students' level of engagement and learning. This study aimed to investigate the correlations among pedagogical practices, student engagement, assessment procedures, and student achievement in the field of music education. A quantitative research method was utilised, where data was gathered from 375 music students via a standardised questionnaire. The data was analysed using the SPSS Process macro to assess mediation and moderation. The findings revealed that the selection and organisation of assessment strategies have significant impacts on student engagement and academic achievement. The presence of teacher support was found to moderate these relationships. Teacher support is a vital factor in shaping the relationships between assessment strategies and student engagement and academic achievement, hence the development of a classroom atmosphere that is conducive to and inclusive of all students. This provides valuable information for educators and educational institutions to improve classroom assessment practices, foster inclusivity, and create a classroom atmosphere that is conducive to learning and student accomplishment. The implications of this study are substantial for the pedagogical community.
