Description: Rachmad, Yoesoep Edhie. 2023. Interactive Engagement Theory. Isfahan Naqsh-e Jahan Ketab Nashriyat, Mahsoos Nashriyat 2023. https://doi.org/10.17605/osf.io/5u32m The Interactive Engagement Theory, developed by Yoesoep Edhie Rachmad and detailed in his 2023 publication titled "Isfahan Naqsh-e Jahan Ketab Nashriyat, Mahsoos Nashriyat," focuses on the dynamics of how interactive environments promote deeper understanding and engagement among individuals. This theory, which emerged from Rachmad’s research initiatives starting in 2016, seeks to explain how interactive experiences, particularly in educational and digital contexts, enhance learning and participation. The background of the theory is rooted in the evolution of learning environments and digital interfaces. As technology integrates more deeply into daily life and educational systems, understanding how interaction affects learning outcomes becomes crucial. Rachmad was motivated by the increasing prevalence of interactive tools and platforms in education, and how these tools potentially transform traditional learning paradigms. Central to the Interactive Engagement Theory are the concepts of active participation and feedback loops. Rachmad defines interactive engagement as the degree to which individuals are not just passively consuming information but are actively involved in the learning process through dialogue, manipulation of materials, or digital interaction. This engagement is facilitated by environments that provide immediate feedback or allow learners to experiment and explore concepts in a hands-on manner. The phenomena underlying this theory include classroom settings where teachers use interactive technologies, digital platforms that offer adaptive learning paths, and even social media environments where users learn from content and interactions with others. These scenarios show that when learners are actively engaged, they are more likely to understand and retain information, leading to higher cognitive development and learning satisfaction. In his conclusions and recommendations, Rachmad emphasizes the importance of designing educational and digital experiences that maximize interactive engagement. He suggests that educators and digital content creators focus on creating environments that encourage exploration and critical thinking, rather than passive absorption of information. Tools such as interactive simulations, gamified learning modules, and collaborative platforms can significantly enhance the effectiveness of teaching and learning by making the process more engaging and responsive to individual learners' needs. Overall, Yoesoep Edhie Rachmad's Interactive Engagement Theory provides insightful guidance on the optimal structuring of interactive environments to foster deeper understanding and active participation. This theory serves as a valuable framework for educators, content creators, and technologists aiming to harness the potential of interaction to enhance learning and engagement in various contexts.   Table of Contents Rachmad, Yoesoep Edhie. 2023.
