Abstract: The study examines the impact of blended learning on student engagement and academic performance, considering the ongoing shift from teacher-centred to student-centred learning. The need for blended learning was in response to the growing demand for an educational model that supports learner participation, flexibility, and, in the long run, enhances academic outcomes. Blended learning, an educational model that combines the strengths and strategies of both online instructional models and traditional face-to-face learning, has become an approach with the potential to address the limitations of both online and offline classes. The study examines various blended learning models, including the flipped Classroom, Rotation, flex, and Online-Merge-Offline (OMO) and their influence on students' behavioural, emotional, and cognitive engagement. Blended learning offers several benefits, including increased student independence and motivation, as well as enhanced student collaboration. Despite the benefits of blended learning, challenges still exist and limit its potential; these challenges include limited access to technology, digital literacy gaps, and pedagogical misalignments. The study concludes that while blended learning has significant potential to enhance student engagement and academic performance, its success depends on thoughtful implementation, equitable access to resources, and continuous support for both educators and learners.
