Studying for exams forms a significant part of the occupational therapy graduate school experience. While successful completion of exams is a central focus for students, little time is devoted to explicitly teaching new graduate students how to most effectively study. Instead, when they enter their occupational therapy programs, students…

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…

The transition from high school to university often amounts to a muddled process, making it both an exciting and challenging time for many undergraduate students. Integrating both academically and socially is key in this respect. Social support from peers and teaching staff, but also from family and friends, can have a decisive impact. A learning…

This research sought to answer the question about what students learnt from a self-regulated learning (SRL) video annotation tool in a hybrid secondary acting classroom. SRL is an important skill for students to self-direct their own learning processes. For the intervention, students engaged in a series of SRL activities through the video…

While decades of research from cognitive psychology provided insight into effective learning strategies for long-term learning, there is a discrepancy between what research recommends and what students do. We investigated first-year engineering students' knowledge and use of learning strategies, and how they experience and adapt to learning…

The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has significantly transformed learning patterns and innovative approaches. Human-machine (generative artificial intelligence) co-creation will become the norm, necessitating that learners possess the requisite AI literacy (AIL) to adapt to this shift. The mechanisms by which individual AIL…

This study investigated the impact of online peer and teacher feedback on students' self-regulated learning and analysed students' perceptions of online peer feedback on self-regulated learning development. The study employed a mixed method by collecting quantitative and qualitative data together. The study comprised 45 pre-service English as a…

This study investigated the use of virtual chatbots in a 3D multi-user virtual environment (3D MUVE) to enhance the communication skills of Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) learners. Several virtual chat agents, developed using pattern matching techniques and embedded in Second Life, created a blended learning environment in which CFL learners…

Computing education has historically sought to align the education students receive in their formal programs with the proficiency required to succeed in the workplace. In recent years, research in this area has focused on "dispositions" which are affective qualities that are integral to completing work tasks and a component of…

This study investigates how undergraduate physics majors develop an interest in specific subfields. We examine interest formation through the lens of social cognitive career theory (SCCT) using four SCCT constructs: learning experiences, self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and proximal environmental influences. We conducted 27 interviews with…

In spite of the emergence of studies seeking to integrate chatbot into education, there is a wide literature gap in the Nigerian contexts. While most studies focus on the design and development of chatbots, there exists a very scarce literature on the effect of ChatGPT chatbot on students' achievement. To address this gap, this study checked the…

This study investigated how a digital game-based learning (DGBL) environment affected low- (LP) and high-proficiency (HP) primary school students' self-regulated learning strategies and vocabulary development. Data were collected from 62 sixth graders (20 LP and 20 HP students) who learned English as a Foreign Language (EFL). The statistics…

Drawing on the Self-Determination Theory (SDT), this study explored how writing a learner diary impacts students' ability to learn autonomously in an intermediate Korean language class. Researchers conducted a qualitative analysis involving nine participants who used weekly learner diaries, questionnaires, and exit interviews. The findings…

This research seeks to find the new trends in virtual reference and online learning by looking at the impact of COVID-19 on academic libraries, and by identifying gaps in professional development for academic librarians, particularly in reference and instruction. Responses from the surveyed academic librarians indicate that many services…

To help alleviate the alarming performance of students in Mathematics, teachers are encouraged to devise different strategies to address the challenges of students in dealing with mathematics. This may include crafting learning materials such as Self-Directing Learning material. This kind of learning material is crucial in developing students'…
