Mercader, Cristina; Ion, Georgeta; Díaz-Vicario, Anna – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2020
Peer feedback is a strategy that allows students to be involved in the assessment process, making them more conscious about the teaching and learning activities. However, different instructional designs can influence learning in different ways. Our paper aims to identify whether peer feedback instructional designs influence students' learning…

Chew, Stephen L.; Cerbin, William J. – Journal of Economic Education, 2021
The authors describe a research-based conceptual framework of how students learn that can guide the design, implementation, and troubleshooting of teaching practice. The framework consists of nine interacting cognitive challenges that teachers need to address to enhance student learning. These challenges include student mental mindset,…

Chang, Tzyh-Lee; Hsin, Huai-Tzu – Research in Science & Technological Education, 2021
Background: Being able to think independently is a must for students to construct new knowledge in their minds. Self-explaining is a constructive learning strategy that encourages students to think for themselves and to make inferences that go beyond the given information. The Self-explain--Discuss--Re-explain (SDR) strategy adapted from…

Theriault, Jennifer C.; Matich, Lisa M.; Lampi, Jodi P.; Armstrong, Sonya L. – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2019
The authors report on a think-aloud study of college students placed into developmental reading courses as they learned and implemented a new strategy device. The purpose was to investigate the device's potential utility for students, especially given the current practical trends in the field to move away from strategy instruction. Findings…

Toker, Zerrin – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2020
This study focuses on students' reflections on their prior learning, action plans generated by them, and the corrective instructional design process. The concern that initiates the beginning of this action research is two folds: on the side of students, to maximize students benefit from corrective instruction and on the teacher's side, being more…

Hajian, Shiva; Obaid, Teeba; Jain, Misha; Nesbit, John – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2019
Instructional support is fundamental to successful implementation of Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) in various educational settings. Although research indicates that instructional support can lead to learning gain and achievement of inquiry strategies, it does not explain why the same level of guidance for students with relatively the same level of…

Daumiller, Martin; Dresel, Markus – Journal of Experimental Education, 2019
Studying with digital media, learners often struggle because of inadequate self-regulation. Previous research presented clear evidence of metacognitive prompts being effective in supporting learning with digital media. This study examines the potential of motivational regulation prompts, which are assumed to additionally support self-regulated…

Moos, Daniel C.; Bonde, Caitlin – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2016
This study examined the effectiveness of embedding self-regulated learning (SRL) prompts in a video designed for the flipped class model. The sample included 32 undergraduate participants who were randomly assigned to one of two conditions: control (video) or experimental (video + SRL prompts). Prior knowledge was measured with a pre-test, SRL was…

Södervik, Ilona; Mikkilä-Erdmann, Mirjamaija; Vilppu, Henna – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2014
The purpose of this study was to investigate elementary school pre-service teachers' understanding of photosynthesis and to examine if a refutational text can support understanding of photosynthesis better than a non-refutational text. A total of 91 elementary school pre-service teachers read either a refutational or a non-refutational text…
