This study was conducted to explore the complex relationships among task value, self-efficacy, learning style, and mathematics achievement using a moderated mediation analysis. The research group was comprised of 378 eighth-grade students from public schools, selected through a convenient sampling approach. Data were gathered using a demographic…

MOOC attrition rates have become a research hotspot in open and online education, requiring researchers to pinpoint psychological, technological, pedagogical, and technical factors that could mitigate this problem. For this aim, the current study applied a tri-phenomenon approach to explore language learners' perceptions of support coupled with…

Learning strategies encompass the diverse approaches students employ to master challenging subjects like anatomy. However, research examining these strategies in isolation remains inconclusive. Recent evidence suggests a shift toward a person-centered paradigm that considers how student subgroups combine multiple learning strategies. This study…

Knowing how students approach learning in higher education contexts is key to promote learning strategies that are effective in the long run. Previous research has concluded that students often use ineffective learning strategies but believe them to be effective--a phenomenon known as metacognitive illusion. In a bid to broaden the perspective on…

There have been many studies about the effectiveness of differentiated instruction in promoting student-centered learning. However, most of these studies have focused on primary and secondary education. There is hardly any research about its application and effectiveness in higher education settings. Furthermore, there is a need to identify the…

Despite evidence that self-regulated learning ability is a strong predictor of academic achievement, effective learning and study strategies remain largely underutilized by students in higher education. In a time of extreme nursing shortage when prelicensure programs are operating at capacity, implications for course failure reach far beyond the…

Research on the use of augmented reality technology in museums is mostly limited to scientific knowledge. The use of wearable device technology learning materials to benefit students in the process of English learning has been somewhat explored, along with differences in students' learning styles and their influence on students' learning…

This study employed quantitative methods to analyze survey results related to the heutagogical learning preferences of undergraduate students in the United States. Heutagogy, an emerging theory focused on a self-determined and student-led approach, has shown positive benefits associated with 21st-century skills and high-level learning necessary to…

For a sustainable future, equipping sustainability change agents with relevant sustainability competencies is crucial. Among these competencies is system thinking competence -- the understanding of complex interrelationships among the dimensions of sustainable development and the impacts of the interrelationships. Learning approaches relevant to…

In recent years, the government has actively set up computer programming courses to train those with the relevant talent; however, the learning performance of the students is not ideal. Therefore, in order to learn programming skills, students usually adopt note-taking strategies because, due to the pressure of the course, the teachers do not have…

The education community has gradually recognized the value of augmented reality (AR) technology and its positive impacts on student learning performance. Still, few studies have proposed specific solutions and results to confirm this phenomenon for first graders in English vocabulary learning. Hence, this research explores the effects of AR apps…

Computer-mediated learning initiatives have recently increased due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. Implications are thus created for self-regulation, learning and achievement as computer-mediated learners face unique motivational and metacognitive demands. The current research uses a serial mediation approach to test the effect of goal…

The aim of this article is to review the state of the art of research and theory development on student learning patterns in higher education and beyond. First, the learning patterns perspective and the theoretical framework are introduced. Second, research published since 2004 on student learning patterns is systematically identified and…

The paper is concerned with a study of the relationship between the use of language learning strategies and student achievement. Chastain states that all learners have their learning strategies but only some are successful. It aims to investigate the types of grammar learning strategies that Asian learners use and the differences of using grammar…

This study examines a person-centered approach to self-regulated learning among 606 University students (140 online, and 466 in blended learning mode). Latent profile analysis revealed five distinct profiles of self-regulated learning: minimal regulators, restrained regulators, calm self-reliant capable regulators, anxious capable collaborators,…
