Contribution: This article shares the learning ecosystem of a project-based embedded systems course, identifying course elements that support self-directed learning and how assignments guide students toward becoming adaptive experts. Background: The technology advances while the fundamentals of electrical engineering remain static. Educators can…

This study investigates the impact of participation in the CREativity in Science and Technology (CREST) programme on student self-regulated processes and related motivations. The CREST scheme, a student-run science project managed by the British Science Association, is currently being implemented in schools across the UK to increase student…

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of scenario-based interactive videos, on students' achievement and their development of self-regulated learning behaviors, when used in an English grammar course. Scenario-based interactive videos can present an experience-centered learning environment that enables students to be more…

Mathematical reasoning ability is the ability to think logically to get a conclusion. This study aims to analyzing the effectiveness of Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) with Peer Feedback towards the students' achievement of mathematical reasoning abilities. The population in this study were 7th-grade students in one junior high…

Undergraduate medical education is experiencing a paradigm shift, where traditional lecture-based environments are being replaced by active learning experiences. Yet, research is needed to demonstrate successful educational interventions, particularly in situations where technology-enriched learning environments promote student use of…

Promoting student engagement and academic achievement in first-year anatomy and physiology courses. "Adv Physiol Educ" 43: 443-450, 2019; doi:10.1152/advan.00205.2018. Students from three undergraduate programs at James Cook University, Queensland, Australia, studying combined first-year anatomy and physiology courses, showed different…

Students are motivated for the learning process only when they are able to take responsibility for one's own learning. Thus the Autonomous Learner Model (ALM) is a key to demonstrate responsibility for Self-learning, develop positive self-esteem, increase knowledge in a variety of areas, develop decision-making, and problem-solving skills, imbibe…

Proficient readers self-monitor and self-correct to derive meaning from text. This article reviews research on how students learn to self-monitor and self-correct and describes a Reciprocal Teaching (RT) instructional routine that was successfully used with early readers to build their metacognitive processes. The RT routine included teacher…

Three students with mild to moderate intellectual and multiple disability, enrolled in a self-contained functional curriculum class were taught to use a self-monitoring checklist and science notebook to increase independence in inquiry problem-solving skills. Using a single-subject multiple-probe design, all students acquired inquiry…

This paper discusses findings of a study investigating how students, in four online courses, engaged in inquiry-based learning with and without support from a facilitator. The investigation was conducted by analyzing discussions of the online courses using the community of inquiry model. The results of the study imply that students in online…

Promoting self-determination has been identified as a means to both promote access to the general education curriculum and focus on transition-related skills. In particular, the Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction (SDLMI) has been found to be effective in producing successful transition and academic outcomes for students with cognitive…
