Ana Pereles; Beatriz Ortega-Ruipérez; Miguel Lázaro – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2024
The aim of this study is to verify whether the use of a digital tool, designed to promote the use of metacognitive strategies in self-regulated learning, increases the level of critical thinking during the learning process in trainee teachers in official online master's degrees. The Critical Thinking Questionnaire (CPC 2) was used to assess…

Anna Katarina Fletcher – Educational Review, 2024
Student agency in the form of students' active involvement in developing self-regulated learning skills by setting goals, monitoring, and adjusting their own learning process, is increasingly recognised as a key component of classroom self-assessment among researchers. The purpose of this article is to offer a conceptual and practical framework…

Siu-Cheung Kong; Yin Yang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has ignited an increase in discussions about generative AI tools in education. In this study, a human-centered learning and teaching framework that uses generative AI tools for self-regulated learning development through domain knowledge learning was proposed to catalyze changes in educational…

van der Graaf, Joep; Lim, Lyn; Fan, Yizhou; Kilgour, Jonathan; Moore, Johanna; Gaševic, Dragan; Bannert, Maria; Molenaar, Inge – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Self-regulated learning (SRL) has been linked to improved learning and corresponding learning outcomes. However, there is a need for more precise insights into how SRL during learning contributes to specific learning outcomes. We operationalised four learning outcomes that varied on two dimensions: structure/connectedness and level/deepness of…

Zheng, Juan; Lajoie, Susanne P.; Li, Shan; Wu, Hongbin – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Academic emotions play an important and complex role in self-regulated learning (SRL). However, few studies have examined how academic emotions unfold in different phases of SRL and how the changes in these emotions influence learning performance. The current study examines 98 students' academic emotion trajectories and profiles across the three…

Furman, Cara E. – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2023
Amidst a steady clamor about "learning loss" during the pandemic, a minority of educators have cautioned we must, in the words of Donna Haraway, "stay with the trouble," giving children space to grieve, explore, and make sense of a new reality. In this paper I interrogate what it means to stay with trouble and specifically call…

Drewery, David; Pretti, Judene – International Journal of Work-Integrated Learning, 2023
Using data collected from co-operative education students at two different times over a four-month long work term, we test and find support for the hypothesis that students' approaches to learning explain the relationship between their lifelong learning characteristics and work adjustment. Students' lifelong learning characteristics were…

Peng, Yaoping; Tullis, Jonathan G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2020
In student-regulated instruction, guiding one's study effectively and efficiently is crucial for successful learning. Yet, significant variability exists in how effectively learners regulate their own study. Here, we explored whether and how beliefs about the nature of intelligence affect learners' metacognitive control and ultimately the efficacy…

Sarika Sharma; Jatinderkumar R. Saini – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
During the COVID-19 pandemic period of almost two years, online teaching was adopted by Higher Educational Institutes (HEIs) mostly as an emergency measure to maintain endurance in teaching-learning activities in academics. Although a lot of research works have focussed on the teaching-learning strategies deployed during the pandemic period, the…

Carmen Alvarez-Alvarez; Leann Mischel – International Journal of Education and Development using Information and Communication Technology, 2024
The need for online educational tools has increased significantly since the COVID-19 pandemic forced many students to embrace distance learning as a classroom alternative. While many instructors have used "Edpuzzle" to enhance distance learning, there has been little research that assesses and compares the views of teachers and students…

Sun, Wei; Hong, Jon-Chao; Dong, Yan; Huang, Yue; Fu, Qian – Asia-Pacific Education Researcher, 2023
Online education has made it possible to implement the "classes suspended but learning continues" policy during the COVID-19 outbreak. However, the intangible sense of the online educational setting requires self-directed learning (SDL) and may force students to know the goals of learning that may impact their engagement. To understand…

Zixi Li; Meina Zhu; Dilnoza Kadirova; Curtis J. Bonk – Distance Education, 2023
The study investigated how adolescent students in Nepal explored massive open online learning courses (MOOCs) in a self-directed learning manner. It used a qualitative approach by conducting 13 individual interviews with these youth. Findings suggest that Nepali adolescent MOOC learners are strongly motivated by natural curiosity toward learning…
