Self-report measures are essential sources of information about learners' studying perceptions. These perceptions also guide self-regulated learning (SRL) decisions and strategies in future studying. However, the development of self-report methods has not kept pace with other multi-modal methodological advancements, particularly in the field of…

Background: Despite the numerous positive effects of augmented reality (AR) on learning, previous research has shown ambiguous results regarding the cognitive demand on the learner arising from, for example, the overlay of virtual elements or novel interaction techniques. At the same time, the number of evidence-based guidelines on designing AR is…

This literature review (n = 30) examines the potential of exam wrappers to rapidly improve student learning in higher education. Exam wrappers, introduced as pre- and post-test reflection prompts (though widely varied), encourage students to engage in self-assessment and self-regulated learning (SRL). The vast majority of studies exclusively…

Purpose: This study examines undergraduates' perceptions of the effectiveness of two metacognitive monitoring strategies, active comprehension monitoring (ACM) and audible elaborative rehearsal (AER), for gaining specialized vocabulary and concept (SVC) knowledge in communication sciences and disorders. Method: The participants were 64…

Constructing personalised and effective online language learning models based on individual personality differences is crucial in the field of education. However, there is little research on how to apply these models to students in science and engineering who have varying personality profiles. This study aimed to assess the validity of the Online…

Background/purpose: The current study examined the possibility of utilising a practice-based learning strategy to enhance the motivation for job retention among student teachers. Materials/methods: These participants were randomly assigned to either the practice-based learning strategy (PBLS) group (44) or to the control group (45). The teachers'…

This paper investigates undergraduate students' information-seeking behaviour utilising a three-year empirical analysis focusing on students within an Applied Economics module at a UK Higher Education institution. In the first year, students demonstrated proficiency in data identification and analysis. However, they struggled with empirical source…

Considering the spread of distance education worldwide and the acceleration of this situation by the COVID-19 epidemic, this study aimed to explore the relationships between adolescents' academic self-regulation skills and academic performance, and the mediating role of motivational strategies during distance learning. The sample was composed of a…

The assessment of student responses to learning-strategy prompts, such as self-explanation, summarization, and paraphrasing, is essential for evaluating cognitive engagement and comprehension. However, manual scoring is resource-intensive, limiting its scalability in educational settings. This study investigates the use of Large Language Models…

With the development of teaching theory, teaching workers gradually realize the importance of reading ability. Based on the development of new literature, this paper analyzes the relationship between students' reading ability and curriculum training through models. Combined with teaching cases, this paper integrates network-based learning…

The purpose of this study is to investigate students' thinking of direct, inverse and nonproportional problems. Thirty two seventh grade students from three different government schools participated in this study. To collect the data, the participants were asked to solve 9 open-ended problems, including 3 direct, 3 inverse and 3 non-proportional…

Purpose: The research aims to identify the effectiveness of using the blended learning strategy on achievement among students of higher colleges of technology in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), through the answer to the following question: Is there a statistically significant difference at the significance level (a = 0.05) in students'…

Problem solving is a key component of authentic scientific research and practice in organic chemistry. One factor that has been shown to have a major role in successful problem solving in a variety of disciplines is metacognitive regulation, defined as the control of one's thought processes through the use of planning, monitoring, and evaluation…

Students tend to avoid effective but effortful study strategies. One potential explanation could be that high-effort experiences may not give students an immediate feeling of learning, which may affect their perceptions of the strategy's effectiveness and their willingness to use it. In two experiments, we investigated the role of mental effort in…
