This study serves to collate and evaluate measures of self-directed learning (SDL), with the goal of guiding the measurement and discussion of SDL. Used in a variety of settings, many applications of SDL have been proposed, but a consistent definition has yet to be formulated. Despite the lack of a cohesive definition, several tools exist to…

Previous studies have reported the importance of regulation in collaborative learning. To understand and support students' learning, researchers have identified that regulation in collaboration emerges as a series of contingent activities at individual and social levels, addressing various learning foci in cognitive, motivational, emotional, and…

This study investigated the development of computational thinking (CT) in young children within the specific context of Hong Kong. The researchers utilized an unplugged digital arts activity to explore the CT knowledge exhibited by children and document their developmental trajectories. A sample of 23 children aged 3 to 6 years participated in an…

Learning mathematics in an online learning environment has unique challenges. Success in an online mathematics learning environment depends on a student's self-regulating ability. This systematic review provides the scholarly community with a synthesis of current self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies of students in the mathematics online…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is critical in online learning, and profiling learners' SRL patterns is needed to provide personalized support. However, little research has examined how each learner performs the cyclical phases of SRL based on trace data. To fill the gap, this study attempts to derive SRL profiles encompassing all cyclical phases of…

In today's rapidly changing and technology-driven world, the ability to think creatively is essential for individuals and organizations. To date, technology-based training has become a new trend for learning and training in the 21st century; however, little empirical research has been conducted to enhance creativity through online training. In the…

Lifelong learning is emerging as a key priority for promoting equity and sustainability in societies. Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a fundamental requirement for achieving successful lifelong learning, and digitization is increasingly influential in this regard. This mixed-methods study explores the degree to which adaptive learning technology…

It is a truth universally acknowledged that pupils do not learn all that they are taught. They may learn something, they may even learn a lot, but it may not be a lot of what we think we have taught them or they may struggle to apply knowledge successfully. In this book, bestselling author Alex Quigley characterises how the long and winding road…

Researchers have indicated the importance of engaging learners in self-regulated learning (SRL) states when situated in game-based learning contexts; however, it remains a challenge for both educational and educational technology researchers to effectively integrate both. To this end, this study investigated how SRL strategies are interwoven with…

Self-direction has become an important skill in the 21st century. To cultivate learners with a high level of self-direction, it is necessary to diagnose their self-directed learning (SDL) ability. This study diagnosed and predicted learners' SDL ability based on their actual SDL behaviours. The study was performed in a self-directed 3D design…

This quantitative study investigated the perceptions and experiences of K-12 teachers utilizing social media platforms for self-directed professional development. Through a survey administered to 111 public elementary school teachers in Mississippi, data was collected to analyze various factors influencing teachers' engagement with social media…

Effective cognitive learning strategies are beneficial for learning and long-term retention. However, higher education students often rely on surface-level strategies like reading and underlining. Interventions to support effective cognitive strategy use have addressed knowledge, beliefs, planning, and commitment. This latter aspect and its…

Even before the inception of the term "learning analytics," researchers globally had been investigating the use of various feedback systems to support the self-regulation of participation and promote equitable contributions during collaborative learning activities. While some studies indicate positive effects for distinct subgroups of…

Determining the curriculum is the government's authority, in early 2022, the independent curriculum was launched. Implementing an independent curriculum is a challenge in itself for education in North Kalimantan. The reason is educational facilities in this region are not evenly distributed. However, several agencies have made efforts to continue…

The Postsecondary Teaching with Technology Collaborative (the Collaborative) is currently researching the obstacles students face in online STEM courses and the ways that institutions and instructors can better support these students. As part of this research program, the authors conducted qualitative research in partnership with six community…
