Self-regulation is an essential skill for lifelong learning. Research has shown that self-regulated learning (SRL) leads to greater academic achievement and sustainable education, but students often struggle with SRL. Scaffolds are widely reported as an effective and efficient support method for SRL. To further improve digital scaffolds'…

Study Purpose: This study was undertaken to establish if the Holistic Wellness Assessment (HWA) can detect intra-individual changes following a 12-week undergraduate course in holistic wellness (N = 235). Methods: A single-group pretest post-test non-experimental design was used to evaluate changes in the eight HWA factors; concurrent collection…

To develop and support teachers' skills in classroom management, resource-efficient teacher training approaches are needed. This study evaluated the effects of an online tiered training intervention on teachers' use of class-wide positive behavior supports, either behavior-specific praise (BSP) or opportunities to respond (OTRs), using a…

Despite the rapid increase of students' enrolment in online courses, higher education institutions in Malaysia face the problem of high dropout rates of students before completing their studies and earning a degree. With a view to addressing the issue, this study focused on critical factors to evaluate the effectiveness of distance learning…

This study investigates the relationship between students' self-efficacy beliefs, goal-setting, and learning tactics in an online business course. Using sequence analysis and process mining techniques, we analyzed log data from 209 students to identify distinct learning tactics and their association with self-efficacy beliefs, inferred from…

This study explored the learning patterns of undergraduate students in Kuwait using Vermunt's model and investigated the relationships between these patterns, cognitive engagement, and academic achievement. The ILS was used to identify the learning patterns of 563 university students. The three identified learning patterns were "active,…

Declining occupational therapy student mental health and well-being is well described in the literature. However, there is a lack of literature describing recommendations from the student perspective that could help academic programs as they develop and implement support programming. Involving students in the process can be beneficial as they are…

Generative artificial intelligence provides both opportunities and challenges for higher education. Existing literature has not properly investigated how this technology would impact assessment in higher education. This scoping review took a forward-thinking approach to investigate how generative artificial intelligence transforms assessment in…

The effects of COVID-19 remained significant on university students' social and academic well-being. The pandemic raised various mental and psychological challenges for the students, and had the potential to deteriorate their academic engagement and performance in online learning environments. The emotion regulation theory hypothesizes that…

The ability to self-regulate learning in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) plays a crucial role in the success of learners. Previous studies indicated the positive impact of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies on students' learning behaviours and academic outcomes in massive open online courses (MOOCs), yet empirical studies on the impact…

The problem under investigation will address how academic institutions can support culturally responsive self-care practices to increase the number of doctoral recipients identifying as Hispanic women, which is only 11% of all doctorates as of 2021. Since burnout can occur when self-care is not being prioritized, academic institutions have a…

This study uses a logistic regression model to analyze survey data (n = 341) and predict factors influencing online course success for underserved and academically at-risk undergraduate students at a small, broad access, four-year, public Midwestern university. Three blocks of predictor variables, demographic (first generation, low income,…

The mass migration to online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased students' burden of self-regulating their learning. Amid this change, students with low self-efficacy may struggle due to their tendency to exhibit poor self-regulated learning and course outcomes. This study investigated the potential buffering role of students'…

Adult learners, including those who are employed at least part-time, have children or other family responsibilities, and are older than 25 years can benefit from the flexibility and convenience of online courses. In community colleges, adult learners enroll in online courses at a higher rate than in-person courses, but their success rates are low,…

This study examined learners' calibration of their executive function performance and the contribution of learners' calibration accuracy to their self-regulated learning. A measure of calibration bias of EF performance is introduced and an evaluation of the utility of the measure is presented. Direct and indirect measures of EF, an assessment of…
