Although self-regulated learning (SRL) plays an important role in supporting online learning performance, the lack of student self-regulation skills poses a persistent problem to many educators. Recommender systems have the potential to promote SRL by delivering personalized feedback and tailoring learning strategies to meet individual learners'…

Lifelong learning is emerging as a key priority for promoting equity and sustainability in societies. Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a fundamental requirement for achieving successful lifelong learning, and digitization is increasingly influential in this regard. This mixed-methods study explores the degree to which adaptive learning technology…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is a prerequisite for successful learning. However, studies have reported that many students struggle with self-regulation in online learning, indicating the need to provide students with additional support for SRL. This study adopted a design-based research methodology to iteratively design, implement, and evaluate…

Teaching computer programming language remotely presents particular difficulties due to its requirement for abstract and logical thinking. There is a dearth of research specifically examining the potential factors that determine student performance when distance self-learning is conducted for programming language education. This study aims to…

During the past years scholars have shown an increasing interest in supporting students' self-regulated learning (SRL). Learning analytics (LA) can be applied in various ways to identify a learner's current state of self-regulation and support SRL processes. It is important to examine how LA has been used to identify the need for support in…

Based on the adaptive feedback theory, promoting the development of digital educational resource services towards adaptability is key to solving the problem of poor applicability in current K-12 digital educational resource services. Demand-driven resource service construction plays a significant guiding role in this process, making it essential…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) involves processes by which learners purposefully direct their cognitions, emotions, and behaviors towards the achievement of personal learning goals. Research has shown that young learners often struggle with SRL. Educational technology could be useful to support their SRL. However, it remains unclear how support…

Artificial intelligence (AI) education is becoming an advanced learning trend in programming education. However, AI subjects can be difficult to understand because they require high programming skills and complex knowledge. This makes it challenging to determine how different departments of students are affected by them. This study draws on…

Teachers' self-directed professional development (i.e., professional development implemented by teachers on their own) has been considered a useful channel of overcoming external constraints in under-resourced contexts, where external support for teachers may be limited. However, almost no research has focused on how such development could be…

Motivated by the proliferation of artificial intelligence that has the potential to promote self-access learning, this study utilizes a sequential explanatory quasi-experimental mixed methods design to investigate the efficacy of Google Assistant (GA) in facilitating second language (L2) vocabulary learning compared to online dictionaries. A…

The integration of technology in higher education is constantly evolving, and the recent emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI), particularly AI-based chatbots, presents both opportunities and challenges. This rapid advancement raises crucial questions about the effective and appropriate implementation of these tools in learning and…

The past ten years have witnessed a tremendous increase in the number of online courses, and the COVID-19 pandemic suddenly accelerated online education. Many students and instructors were unprepared for online learning. In particular, online learners are expected to employ self-directed learning (SDL) skills to succeed. This qualitative study…

In this study, the self-directed learning (SDL) processes of children who have never used a computer before were examined within the cultural context they live in. In accordance with the subject of the research, a village, located in a rural area of the Southeastern Anatolia region in Turkey, where crucial digital divide and low socioeconomic…

Robotics education is valuable for developing students' 21st century competencies. It is of significant importance for teachers and researchers to explore its effective pedagogies. Robotics learning is interdisciplinary, and the most effective pedagogy is problem-oriented instruction. This type of instruction requires students to independently…

Enhancing students' analytical thinking skills holds great promise for bolstering a nation's economic growth, fostering a dynamic learning culture, and nurturing human capital development. It is especially critical in today's rapidly changing landscape, where the demand for skilled, adaptable graduates is high. Achieving and sustaining these…
