Successful middle schools exhibit effective practices that engage families as valued partners. However, as at-home learning increasingly shifts to digital spaces, parents may have concerns with technology and how their role shifts in digital learning environments. This includes concerns about the balancing act for parents wishing to encourage…

Learning in higher education while being at war is the topic of this paper. The investigation on the management of one's own learning processes by students living war conditions has been addressed through a survey that was conducted on a sample of 1,685 students at the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute in Kiev during February-March 2023,…

Assessing cognitive demand is crucial for research on self-regulated learning; however, discrepancies in translating essential concepts across languages can hinder the comparison of research findings. Different languages often emphasize various components and interpret certain constructs differently. This paper aims to develop a translingual set…

Purpose: This study addresses gaps in the existing literature on students' understanding of Independent Learning (IL), whilst exploring the link between levels of IL, growth mindset, motivated strategies for learning and academic performance. Design/methodology/approach: Three hundred and eighty-six university students recruited via opportunistic…

Best-practice guidelines have incorporated ultrasound in diagnostic and procedural medicine. Due to this demand, the Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine initiated a comprehensive integration of ultrasound into its first-year anatomy course attended by more than 280 students. Ultrasound workshops were developed to enhance student…

Background: It has been assumed that prompting students to plan, monitor and evaluate their learning process could stimulate strategy use and thereby improve learning outcomes. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effects of metacognitive prompts on students' self-regulated learning (SRL) and learning outcomes in the context of…

Prompted by the sudden shift to remote instruction in March 2020 brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers explored online resources to support their students learning from home. We report on how twelve teachers identified and creatively leveraged open educational resources (OERs) and practices to facilitate self-directed science learning.…

This study investigated that whether and how the mechanisms of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategy may underlie explicit behaviors of repeated studying and testing by an eye-tracking method. Sixty-three seventh-grade students read an illustrated science article and completed a reading test. Then they were asked to reread and retest. Our data…

The aim of this dissertation is to determine the professional readiness of instructional designers as they develop and implement online course elements that support student self-regulated learning development. The increasing popularity of online education amongst college students has created a rift between faculty and students. Faculty at this…

Many students find the transition to college coursework stressful and challenging. Decades of research in the cognitive sciences have provided data regarding effective ways to obtain and retain information; however, many students do not use these strategies. In this article, we embed a self-study designed, conducted, and written up by Teddy…

The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between the self-learning skills that students acquire and their attitude towards using the e-learning system (Moodle). However, studies that examine the relationship between self-learning skills and students' attitudes towards using e-learning system have thus far been rare. This study…

Flipped learning requires learners to enhance their self-regulated learning (SRL) practices which offer a lens for conceptualising how learners regulate themselves (Zimmerman & Moylan, 2009). To date, studies on flipped learning are yet to explore whether SRL is developed to the same extent in learners at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.…

This study investigated the effect of differentiated instruction on Turkish preservice teachers' academic achievement and self-directed learning readiness in an online teaching profession course. The study utilized a pretest-posttest control group design. Data were collected through an achievement test and a self-directed learning readiness scale.…

Language learners in higher education increasingly use out-of-class self-directed learning facilitated by mobile technology. In order to make informed educational decisions, this study sets out to provide an overview of empirical research into learning strategies that self-directed learners use with the support of mobile technology in language…

Adults are independent learners and are expected to direct their own learning. Nowadays, there are many MOOC platforms preferred by adult learners. Many states have adapted to these developments and established an online learning platform in order to carry out the training and development activities of civil servants. The Presidency of the…
