How Does Collaborative Experiential Learning Affect Adaptive University Performance?

Summary/Abstract: Background/purpose. The education sector is currently encountering challenges and evolving concepts in the Society 5.0 era, which seeks to harmonize society and technology to build a more advanced and sustainable world. This study analyzes the influence of Supportive Leadership, Social Network Capability, and Openness to Experience on Adaptive University Performance, with Collaborative Experiential Learning as a mediating variable. Materials/methods. Data were collected from 172 deans of autonomous public universities in Java through a survey using a quantitative method with the SEM-PLS approach. Results. The findings indicate that Openness to Experience and Social Network Capability significantly influence Adaptive University Performance. Supportive Leadership significantly affects Collaborative Experiential Learning but does not directly impact Adaptive University Performance. Furthermore, Collaborative Experiential Learning neither directly influences Adaptive University Performance nor mediates the relationships between independent variables and Adaptive University Performance. Conclusion. These results highlight that while experiential and collaborative learning contribute to the academic environment, university adaptability is more influenced by openness to experience and social networks. Strengthening academic networks and fostering a culture of innovation are crucial for enhancing adaptability in the evolving higher education landscape.
