Résumé:
The study in hand explores students’ attitudes towards agentic engagement in learning and interaction. Agentic engagement refers to the students’ proactive involvement in a learning activity and being as centered as their teachers. It has been hypothesized that if students are aware of the importance of agentic engagement, they will act proactively and take initiation in learning and classroom interaction. To test this hypothesis, a questionnaire was administered to 100 students in master one and master two students at the department of English at Mohammed Seddik Ben Yahia University. The results obtained showed that most students at the master level have shown that they are not very engaged in learning since they are not interested in preparing, suggesting, and adding information to enrich their lectures. In contrast, most of them are engaged in the process of interaction in the classroom. However, their initiative is linked to having the right answer, feeling confident, and feeling motivated in learning about the subject
