De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
The present study aims at investigating whether events of socially shared metacognitive regulation (SSMR) differ from each other when comparing their characteristics. These differences are labelled "variations in SSMR". The study is conducted in a peer tutoring setting at university and includes video data (70 h of video recordings) on…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2021
This study investigates (1) the impact of structuring versus reflection-provoking support on university students' adoption of socially shared metacognitive regulation (SSMR) during face-to-face peer tutoring (PT) and (2) the relation between SSMR and group performance. A quasi-experimental design was adopted, involving 72 educational sciences…

Wu, Lin; Valcke, Martin; Van Keer, Hilde – Educational Sciences: Theory and Practice, 2019
Student's individual, family, and teacher factors play a significant role in children's reading development. However, the mechanisms by which these critical factors jointly contribute to children's reading comprehension achievement are poorly understood. The present research aimed at developing a multilevel comprehensive model which shows critical…

Wu, Lin; Valcke, Martin; Van Keer, Hilde – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2021
Reading strategies have been documented as beneficial facilitators for readers to understand text; their potential efficacy, however, has not yet adequately assessed among struggling readers in the context of a large number of students below grade level at secondary schools internationally. Using a pretest-posttest control group experimental…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – Journal of Experimental Education, 2016
The study examines whether structuring (SS) versus problematising scaffolds (PS) differently affect reciprocal peer-tutoring (RPT) groups' adoption of particular regulation skills, deep-level regulation, and tutee-initiated regulation. A quasi-experimental design involving two experimental groups (SS versus PS condition) was adopted. The first,…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Moerkerke, Beatrijs; Valcke, Martin – Metacognition and Learning, 2016
We aimed to investigate how metacognitive regulation is characterised during collaborative learning in a higher education reciprocal peer tutoring (RPT) setting. Sixty-four Educational Sciences students participated in a semester-long RPT-intervention and tutored one another in small groups of six. All sessions of five randomly selected RPT-groups…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2017
The present study investigates collaborative learners' adoption of key regulation activities (i.e., orienting, planning, monitoring, and evaluating) and a deep-level regulation approach in relation to characteristics of their collaboration on the cognitive and communicative level. More specifically, the correlation of collaborative learners'…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2015
Although successful learning in university education can be advanced by students' competence to self-regulate their learning, students often possess insufficient metacognitive regulation skills to regulate their learning adequately. The present study investigates changes in university students' adoption of metacognitive regulation after…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2015
Although successful collaborative learning requires socially shared metacognitive regulation (SSMR) of the learning process among multiple students, empirical research on SSMR is limited. The present study contributes to the emerging research on SSMR by examining its correlation with both collaborative learners' content processing strategies and…

De Backer, Liesje; Van Keer, Hilde; Valcke, Martin – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2012
It is widely recognized that metacognition is an important mediator for successful and high-level learning, especially in higher education. Nevertheless, a majority of higher education students possess insufficient metacognitive knowledge and regulation skills to self-regulate their learning adequately. This study explores the potential of…

Wu, Lin; Valcke, Martin; van Keer, Hilde – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2012
Problem Statement: Students' metacognition can play a critical role in their reading learning, and their metacognitive awareness of reading strategies has attracted the interest of both educational researchers and teachers. However, there is not an existing questionnaire for the research of students' metacognition on reading in China. An…

Zhao, Ningning; Valcke, Martin; Desoete, Annemie; Zhu, Chang; Sang, Guoyuan; Verhaeghe, JeanPierre – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2014
The present study aims at exploring predictors influencing mathematics performance. In particular, the study focuses on internal students' characteristics (gender, age, metacognitive experience, mathematics self-efficacy) and external contextual factors (GDP of school location, parents' educational level, teachers' educational level, and teacher…

Ferla, Johan; Valcke, Martin; Schuyten, Gilberte – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2010
Using path analysis, the present study focuses on the development of a model describing the impact of four judgments of self-perceived academic competence on higher education students' achievement goals, learning approach, and academic performance. Results demonstrate that academic self-efficacy, self-efficacy for self-regulated learning, academic…

Ferla, Johan; Valcke, Martin; Schuyten, Gilberte – Studies in Higher Education, 2009
This study aims to identify student models of learning (sets of "intra-student" cognitions about learning) and to investigate their effect on study strategies. A two-step cluster analysis identified four student models of learning, representing students' self-efficacy beliefs, learning conceptions, attributions for academic performance…
