In developing economies, blended learning presents challenges, including effectively implementing self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies, sustaining motivation, and ensuring active engagement in the educational landscape. This study investigates how self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies affect motivation through engagement and satisfaction. Covariance-based Structural Equation Modeling was utilized to analyze the 919 valid responses from high school students in the Visayas Region, Philippines. The results supported four out of five hypothesized paths. SRL strategies positively affect satisfaction and engagement. Satisfaction negatively predicted motivation, while engagement positively influenced motivation to learn. The significance of these results informed tailored approaches for educators and institutions in a blended learning environment. These findings contribute valuable insights to the ongoing discussions on effective educational strategies in the context of blended learning.
