The sense of presence---a feeling of engagement with a mediated or artificial experience that so closely mirrors the experience of its natural, unmediated analogue that the perceived difference becomes blurred or lost completely (Lee, 2004)---has been extensively studied in fields such as computer science and telecommunications, but rarely in an education context. The present study sought to examine the influence of presence on learning engagement, using mixed methods to assess both constructs among master's degree students in both online and on-campus class settings. A self-report instrument that combined an established learning engagement measure with an established presence measure was distributed to participants (n = 148; online n = 102, on campus n = 46). Multiple regression and structural equation modeling (SEM) indicate that presence is a significant predictor of learning engagement (with 42% of the variance explained). Analysis also indicates that the location itself (online vs. on-campus) does not significantly influence presence. By making a meaningful change in each environment, however, the present study found that the text chat element in a real-time online learning environment makes a significant positive contribution to presence. SEM analysis of the data produced two models explaining the relationship between the sense of presence, learning engagement, and the significant components of each. Mental immersion, active interpersonal social presence, and richness emerged as key component factors of presence. The results support strategic application of presence concepts in online and on-campus class environments, and suggest further study among different populations, in additional environments, and in more complex structural contexts, as well as further exploration of the role of text chat and other online classroom design elements.
