Context: Accompanying learners in their increasingly self-directed learning is an important goal in the field of vocational education and training. With digitalisation, the traditional role of the teacher, characterized in terms of an arbiter and transmitter of knowledge, is in crisis. Besides teachers' task in instruction, other role aspects are…

The objective of this study is to assess students' perceptions of self-directed learning (SDL) skills in online learning using the Turkish version of the Self-Directed Online Learning Scale (SDOLS-T). To achieve this objective, the original SDOLS in English was translated into Turkish using the back-translation method. Subsequently, two separate…

Portfolios are designed to promote self-regulated learning and reflective practice through guided reflection on collections of artefacts. However, many medical students are reluctant to write reflections. On social media and in social research, photographic self-portraits (selfies) document experiences, relationships, and identity. Therefore,…

Self-directed learning (SDL) is integral to medical education. It helps in fostering critical thinking, independence, and problem-solving skills. With advancements in technology, digital tools like search engines, interactive content, and large language model (LLM) chatbots have become supplementary tools to traditional materials such as…

As artificial intelligence transforms education, ChatGPT has emerged as a tool for learning, reshaping how students engage with academic material. This study investigates ChatGPT's influence on student engagement among Filipino college students, focusing on self-management and intentional learning--two critical dimensions of self-directed…

Technology plays a pivotal role in shaping education through transformative enhancements in learning experiences at various levels. ChatGPT has emerged as a promising educational tool amid evolving technological landscapes.

Heutagogy, or self-determined learning, is a learner-centered educational approach emphasizing autonomy, capability, and lifelong learning. This literature review explores the theoretical foundations of heutagogy, its applications in contemporary education, and its vital role in fostering 21st-century skills such as problem-solving, adaptability,…

Video-based instruction (VBI) is an effective means to teach employment skills to young adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Within the category of VBI, video prompting (VP) is well-suited to teach multistep routines, and video modeling (VM) is better suited for social interactions. In this multiple probe design, three…

Although research demonstrates benefits of collaboration in problem-solving, less is known about how different formats impact learning and cognitive engagement. This study compared in-person and virtual collaboration to individual problem-solving by measuring performance and cognitive engagement, using heart rate variability (HRV). Participants…

In this study utilizing PISA (2022) data, we employ Ecological Theory to explore the complex relationships between proximal and distal effects on the home learning environment, which has undergone changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Four different profiles based on Ecological Theory were created as a result of the latent profile analysis. This…

In digitalized learning processes, learning analytics (LA) can help teachers make pedagogically sound decisions and support pupils' self-regulated learning (SRL). However, research on the role of the pedagogical dimensions of learning design (LD) in influencing the possibilities of LA remains scarce. Primary school presents a unique LA context…

This article considers the assessment of collaborative, creative theatre by students in Higher Education, made as what theatre scholar and educationalist Kathy Dacre refers to as "simulated professional practice". During UK lockdown (2020-22) for the COVID-19 pandemic, difficulties arose with the assessment of students' digital and…

This article explores the impact of the online platform "OPEN" on the lifelong learning of threeyear students at Sichuan Vocational and Technical College. The study aimed 1) to examine the impact of the integration of the OPEN platform on the academic achievement of vocational students at Sichuan Vocational and Technical College, and 2)…

As education systems confront the growing need for autonomous learners, the requirement from teachers to exhibit self-regulated learning and teaching (SRL&T) abilities intensifies. However, research investigating teachers' roles as mentors for their students' self-regulated learning (SRL), particularly regarding teachers' SRL&T within…

Grounded in self-determination theory (SDT), this longitudinal study examined the potential of GPT-4o, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool, in K-12 school contexts by assessing its long-term impact on high school students' self-regulated learning (SRL) and task engagement. Furthermore, the study tracked the developmental trajectory of these…
