Self-regulated learning (SRL) is critical in online learning, and profiling learners' SRL patterns is needed to provide personalized support. However, little research has examined how each learner performs the cyclical phases of SRL based on trace data. To fill the gap, this study attempts to derive SRL profiles encompassing all cyclical phases of…

This study focused on freshmen at Yunnan Normal University. The research objectives were threefold: (1) to investigate the role of self-regulatory methods in enhancing students' autonomous learning ability, (2) to study the differences between the control group and the experimental group, and (3) to determine if students are satisfied with…

This article seeks to discuss narratives underlying the debate on artistic training and (self)education of artists in two distinguished moments: the sixteenth-century Italian Mannerism and nineteenth-century artistic movements which opposed academic instruction. Mannerist treatises were the first to encompass aesthetic and pedagogical concerns in…

There is a dearth of knowledge regarding how self-directed learning and inclusion relate as concepts. In this paper, we explore how self-directed learning and inclusion are discussed together in the educational literature. With the aim of advancing our conceptual and theoretical understanding in this regard, we present the findings of a systematic…

Developing students' metacognitive awareness and self-efficacy is crucial for fostering independent learning and higher-order thinking skills, especially in research-related tasks. Despite the widespread recognition of the importance of cultivating higher-order thinking skills in higher education, there remains a significant gap in our…

Higher education (HE) is considered to be the apex of all educational endeavours. Therefore, it is expected that student in various institutions of higher learning should be self-motivated for individualized synchronous and asynchronous learning. Lamentably, it seems that such expectation within the HE spaced is yet to be achieved. While…

Access to internet has exposed today's learners to wide pool of knowledge. But acquisition of information, analyzing, and applying it depends upon the learner's level of preparedness and engagement. Using the method of experiment the researchers tried to understand how the effectiveness of self-directed learning and instructor-led learning varies…

Learning power has become a significant impacting factor on learning quality in digital age. This study is a survey at a university in China, using a questionnaire with seven evaluation indicators integrated into learning dimensions, to assess college students' digital learning power (DLP). The main findings are as follows. College students have…

Writing is an essential component of scientific activity. As such, it is necessary to develop strategies to provide equitable training opportunities for science writing. In order to provide learners with ways to improve their writing regardless of their language background and/or institutional and departmental environments, this article describes…

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the experiential learning cycle (ELC) and self-regulated learning (SRL), both implemented through a game-based approach (AI 2 Robot City board game), in fostering computational thinking (CT) and understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in university level. The sample consisted of…

Screen-based simulation (SBS) can complement traditional nursing courses. We compared the effect of innovative virtual environments not widespread in French nursing schools on self-efficacy, quiz performance, and self-regulated learning behaviors. This quasi-experimental study involved 1183 student nurses. Participants were divided into an…

Case-based learning (CBL) is a learner-centric educational approach that fosters independent learning and exploration through case analysis, guided by teachers' heuristic instruction. The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of CBL versus traditional teaching methods in advanced breast cancer education for residents. In this randomized controlled…

Integrating ChatGPT into educational contexts has become prevalent due to its potential to revolutionize teaching, learning, and research. However, to ensure positive use, it is necessary to design learning environments that effectively incorporate this technology. This study employed self-determination theory as an undergirding framework to…

Classical conceptualisations of self-regulated learning typically ignore the role of teaching strategies in real-world classrooms. Therefore, the present exploratory study aimed to examine the different clusters of perceived teaching strategies and students' metacognitive knowledge and experiences, and motivation. The data came from 6365 (49.63%…

During COVID-19 pandemic, there was a change in the teaching mode from face-to-face to online teaching. It was especially challenging for teachers to motivate students to learn through distance learning. This shift in teaching mode also lowered student-student and student-teacher interactions. In this project, a biochemistry courseware,…
