Assessing cases of child welfare requires the ability to engage with different sources of information systematically. This study examined how case-based learning (CBL) can be used to support social work students (N = 104) acquire knowledge crucial to assessing cases of child welfare and whether benefits of CBL could be maximized by structuring the…

The purpose of this study is to identify the difference between elementary pupils' higher order thinking skill (HOTS) in an environment learning using a variety of resources in a local culture-based learning. HOTS differences between those who use printed and electronic learning resources after controlling self-regulated learning pupil. This is an…

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…

Research into metacognition has found it to facilitate self-regulation and correlate to learners' L2 writing level. Following Lee & Mak's (2018) framework of Metacognitive Instruction (MI) for L2 writing classrooms, this study applies Dynamic Assessment (DA) to writing MI (MI-DA) in a rural middle school EFL class in China. A one-semester…

Mind-wandering during reading is often associated with worse comprehension performance. Research suggests that metacognitive competences (i.e., the knowledge about as well as monitoring and regulation of one's own cognitive processes) are positively related to reading performance and may play a role in the prevalence of mind-wandering. However,…

Flipped learning has been recognized as a promising pedagogical model for methodological progress in educational environments. Studies have shown the effectiveness of flipped learning when used with appropriate educational technologies and learning strategies. On the other hand, comprehensive guidance is required to combine this pedagogical model…

This study describes a typology of the teaching styles of practicing teachers. Teaching style refers to a teacher's distinct qualities that are persistent from situation to situation regardless of the content. The Teaching Style Assessment Scale, which measures teaching style, was completed by 1,261 nursing faculty in Japan. Prior cluster analysis…

In the past couple of decades, the geoscience education community has made great strides toward investigating how to provide effective student learning experiences in the college setting. While experiences such as student-centered teaching strategies and course design elements are useful for the instructor, they may not make important elements of…

Research has suggested that the type and frequency of learning strategies employed by successful listeners is greater than their less successful counterparts. Based on evidence that metacognitive strategies (e.g. listening-for-gist; inferring meaning) are more effective than cognitive ones (e.g. word-for-word translation), this study sought to…

This study describes the teaching style behaviors that differentiate between learner-centered and teacher-centered approaches to teaching. The Teaching Style Assessment Scale, which measures teaching style, was completed by 1,261 nursing faculty in Japan. Discriminant analysis and cluster analysis revealed that the distinctive characteristic…

I present a new model of the self-regulation of virtue that integrates perspectives on emotion, cognition, and motivation. Across three vignette-based studies in US/UK (N = 1,540), I developed through exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis a multi-item measure of broadening and defensive responses, the Self-Regulation of Virtue Inventory…

The study aims to determine the impact of blended learning on the performance of science students and their self-regulation and to identify effective recommendations to improve the effectiveness of blended learning. Third-year students of Kazan Federal University took part in the study. The measurement scale tools adopted in this study included…

To encourage students' self-regulated learning at home, developing skills for textbook use to overcome learning-related impasses is crucial. This study examined the effects of providing mathematics class sessions that combined teacher instruction on appropriate textbook use with peer instruction, aimed at promoting students' spontaneity and…

Web-based multimedia annotation is a valuable tool for engaging learners with diverse materials. This study aimed to assess the effects of multimedia annotation on student performance, self-regulation, and cognitive load in an online learning environment. We developed and implemented a multimedia annotation system in an online biology class using…

Objective: The aims of this pilot study were--first, to assess the impact of a brief classroom-based mindfulness program on students' reported levels of mindfulness, well-being, and stress; and, second, to understand students' experiences of participating in the program. Participants: Students at a private midwestern research-intensive university,…
