The COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant switch to remote learning enabled a natural experiment to observe and compare the self-regulation strategies used by elementary students in hypermedia environments. Specifically, the same participants (N = 48, M[subscript age] = 10.75) were observed in two learning contexts: a traditional classroom with…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) encompasses cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational learning strategies and is highly relevant for academic achievement. Although students have mostly acquired high-level SRL strategy knowledge by the time they reach college, they often show deficiencies in their application of SRL strategies. In order to…

To help students become better learners, educators need to be able to provide feedback to students on their learning processes. However, this can be challenging for educators due to the customized nature of such feedback. To that end, we have created and evaluated the Acknowledge, Affirm, Challenge, and Encourage (A[superscript 2]CE) framework as…

The study was carried out to determine the effects of the mind mapping method in web-based courses on students' metacognitive learning strategies and self-regulated learning skills and to determine the students' views on this. The study findings showed that there was a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the…

Lecturers often claim that time constraints cause tension regarding feedback on students' assessment opportunities. Assessment strategies for effective feedback procedures can lead to early identification of problem areas in student performance. Numerous students at higher education institutions (HEIs) do not complete their qualifications or take…

This research investigates the use of the Brainstorming method in the learning process to withdraw the best idea for improving students' Mathematical connection skills and the relation of Mathematical connection skills with metacognition skills. This study utilizes a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental model pretest-posttest control…

Purpose: Language learning is often conceptualized as a cognitive, psycholinguistic or pedagogical process confined to formal classroom contexts. Scant attention is paid to the autonomy of young learners in out-of-class situations. Methodology: Using an emic approach, this study attempts to fill the research gap by analyzing the visual and verbal…

The paper aims to propose an instrument to identify students' metacognitive strategies in mathematical modelling activities. The items were designed from a review regards metacognition and instruments already recognised in literature. This design comprises an instrument that differs from others in which the data were the self-reported students'…

The aim of this investigation is to identify different profiles of undergraduates based on online homework management strategies: arranging the environment, managing time, monitoring motivation, cognitive reappraisal, emotion management, and handling distraction. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was applied to investigate online homework management…

Why does some professional development fall flat, while others resonate with teachers and make a real difference? How can professional learning be made better and lead to lasting changes in teacher practice? Schools and districts can get more out of their investment in professional learning for teachers (and principals) by creating PD systems,…

The past ten years have witnessed a tremendous increase in the number of online courses, and the COVID-19 pandemic suddenly accelerated online education. Many students and instructors were unprepared for online learning. In particular, online learners are expected to employ self-directed learning (SDL) skills to succeed. This qualitative study…

Background: The COVID-19 has accelerated the transition to blended learning (BL) in higher education, prompting a need for further investigation into the efficacy of self-regulated learning strategies (SRLS) in these new educational environments. Objective: The primary goal of this research is to assess the effectiveness of SRLS in BL in higher…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is an essential skill to achieve one's learning goals. This is particularly true for online learning environments (OLEs) where the support system is often limited compared to a traditional classroom setting. Likewise, existing research has found that learners often struggle to adapt their behaviour to the…

This research aimed to study a direct positive effect of English self-efficacy on English language proficiency, a positive effect of metacognitive learning strategies on English self-efficacy, and an indirect effect of metacognitive learning strategies on English language proficiency with English self-efficacy as a mediator among 160 EFL…

Problem solving is a key component of authentic scientific research and practice in organic chemistry. One factor that has been shown to have a major role in successful problem solving in a variety of disciplines is metacognitive regulation, defined as the control of one's thought processes through the use of planning, monitoring, and evaluation…
