This study is significant as it seeks to establish the connection between the digital literacy levels of pre-service teachers and their teacher identities while also examining the mediating role of mobile learning in this relationship. Additionally, it explores the impact of pre-service teachers' digital literacy and learning motivations on their…

Gamification is widely used to enhance student learning and engagement. This meta-analysis focused on experimental research examining the effects of gamification on student motivation in K-12. Studies were retrieved from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and ProQuest, resulting in 279 articles screened, with 31 meeting the inclusion criteria. The…

Students involve themselves in learning activities multidimensionally, including behaviorally, cognitively, emotionally, and agentically. This multidimensional involvement predicts important outcomes, but it is also possible that each type of engagement might have its own specialized purpose or function. To investigate this possibility, we…

Learners' attempts to regulate their own motivation for studying in the face of tedious or difficult tasks is an important aspect of self-regulated learning. Therefore, motivation regulation has received increasing attention over the past few years, resulting in numerous publications using different definitions of the construct, samples,…

It is well known that successful second language (L2) learners are motivated individuals. Accordingly, L2 researchers have tested the predictive power of different motivational constructs on language learning outcomes. However, this perspective appears to neglect the assessment of achievement as a predictor of future motivation. To assess this…

Background: The purported reciprocity between motivation and academic achievement in education has largely been supported by correlational data. Aims: Our first aim was to determine experimentally whether motivation and achievement are reciprocally related. The second objective was to investigate a potential behavioural mediation pathway between…

In this meta-analysis, we examined the average correlations (weighted for sample size and corrected for measurement error) between the varied types of motivation specified within self-determination theory (SDT) and second language (L2) achievement. We also conducted moderator analyses to explore whether these relationships are influenced by age,…

With the rise of online education, students' online learning engagement (OLE) has become a key factor influencing academic performance. Understanding the factors affecting OLE can improve learning environments and student experiences. This study examines the impact of external factors--teacher feedback (TF), perceived teacher support (PTS), and…

This study examines the direct and indirect effects of perceived parental academic involvement on student achievement through academic motivation, based on Self-Determination Theory. The study group consisted of 849 ninth-grade students from 12 public high schools in a major urban area in Türkiye. Parental involvement was analyzed through two…

This study investigated multilevel models of homework time management involving Chinese middle school students. At the individual level, homework time management was positively associated with arranging the environment, monitoring motivation, time on homework, and teacher and parent autonomy support. Additionally, homework time management was…

Although the Community of Inquiry is a widely used instructional model for online and blended learning, there is a lack of comprehensive research on its effects on learner motivation. This study examines the relationship between CoI presences--teaching presence, social presence, and cognitive presence--and autonomous motivation in blended…

Motivation, stress, and satisfaction are all key elements in academic success. Academic motivation is linked with positive outcomes, such as low levels of stress, high satisfaction, and mental well-being. Although it is well documented that motivational orientation, stress, and satisfaction are closely related together, very little attention has…

The study aims to probe the roles of learning desire and persistence in influencing Gen Z learners' continuance intention of using YouTube for learning in digital learning context. Building upon prior research, a research framework with 10 hypotheses was proposed and empirically tested by using Partial Least Squares Structure Equation Modelling…

Metacognition and curiosity play an important role in the educational process. Therefore, it is significant to examine their correlation with students' performance and satisfaction with classes. In order to examine whether the effect of metacognition and curiosity on physics performance and satisfaction with physics classes depends on gender, a…

The motivational basis of self-regulated learning lays a solid theoretical framework for education researchers to look closely at the learners' intrinsic motivational factors in enhancing their academic outcomes. Particularly, learners' motivation forces, embedded in the self-regulatory learning (SRL) process, have not been well researched in an…
