Self-regulated learning ability is an important determinant of the effectiveness of blended learning. However, little research has been done on middle school students' horns to explore how to improve their self-regulation learning ability in blended learning. This study investigated the current situation of self-regulated learning, self-efficacy,…

The pressure being brought to colleges and universities by students to offer more flexibility in schedules has led to the adoption of flexible attendance by many institutions. Flexible attendance environments allow students to attend class in the manner that best meets the student's needs. Flexibility in scheduling and attendance are not…

This study aimed to investigate whether and how university students with high psychological capital (PsyCap) experience more career growth. Based on self-determination theory, we examined the mediating role of self-concordance in choosing majors and the moderating role of career values in this relationship. Results from a two-wave lagged study of…

Background: For many people with Parkinson's disease (PWPD), the long-term maintenance of speech following intensive treatment remains elusive. PD Check-In, a model for supported self-managed maintenance of speech following LSVT LOUD®, was developed and evaluated. Aims: To evaluate the impact of PD Check-In on vocal intensity and level of…

Although research on motivational regulation, as an important subprocess of self-regulated learning, has increased considerably in the past two decades, previous findings stem mainly from cross-sectional data and between-person analyses. The aim of this research was to explore the longitudinal associations between self-efficacy for motivational…

In student-centric learning environments, such as blended learning, students' metacognitive self-regulation is required to plan, monitor, and control their learning processes and achieve positive learning outcomes. The lack of metacognitive self-regulation may lead students to encounter difficulties that, eventually, affect their learning…

In learning journals, prompts were shown to increase self-regulated learning processes effectively. As studies on effects of long-term prompting are sparse, this study investigates the effects of prompting cognitive and metacognitive self-regulation strategies short-term and long-term in learning journals on learners' strategy use, self-efficacy,…

The significance of higher-order thinking (HOT) is becoming increasingly prominent in the twenty-first century, as reflected in the framework of most recent competency models. Blended learning models are universally recognized as promising endeavors to promote learners' HOT in the contemporary higher education field. To ensure that such learning…

Mentoring is acknowledged as an essential prerequisite for successful teacher induction, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the mentor's quality of support and the mentee's initial professional beliefs. Focusing on novice teachers' self-efficacy and emotional management, this longitudinal study investigates how constructivist- and…

Previous studies have examined stress' potential impact on undergraduate college student academic outcomes. The existing literature has defined the populations' lived experiences of stress as a significant factor that can often destabilize a student's physical and mental health, as well as detract from a student's ability to achieve targeted goals…

Bandura proposed 2 constructs as central to agency and motivation: self-efficacy and outcome expectancy. Considerable research has documented the central role that self-efficacy plays in motivation, self-regulation, and learning in educational settings. Outcome expectancy, however, has received less study. This article focuses on clarifying the…

Due to the pure novelty of the concept of teacher L2 grit, scant research attention has been dedicated to the exploration of its antecedents within the domain of foreign language education. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore whether English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers' L2 grit could be predicted by their sense of self-efficacy…

This study aimed to investigate the influence of higher education students' motivation, learning self-efficacy, and self-monitoring on learning engagement in online learning environments. Inviting participants from Taiwan's higher education institutions, a total of 354 students (144 male and 210 female) from different years and fields completed an…

Online learning environments offer flexibility for learners who would like to study at a distance. However, research informs us that online learners are usually less likely to complete the learning experience and more likely to drop out compared to learners studying in traditional face-to-face learning environments. One major factor for low…

Numerous studies have been conducted to improve students' writing performance through flipped instruction. However, some researchers question its effectiveness due to a lack of systematic design. This study aimed to create a flipped writing environment and investigate the effects of EFL students' writing motivation, metacognitive awareness, and…
