Research on academic performance in online education proliferated in the last decade; however, our current understanding of the relationship between self-regulated learning and academic performance in online learning environments remains scattered. This meta-analysis provides a holistic view of the relationship between learners' use of…

Recent advancements in educational technology have enabled teachers to use learning analytics (LA) and flipped classrooms. The present study investigated the impact of a LA-based feedback system on students' academic achievement and self-regulated learning (SRL) in a flipped learning (FL) environment. The study used a pretest-posttest control…

When students use metacognition, they can more effectively problem solve on their own and in groups. Most metacognition studies have focused on individual learners while a few studies have begun to explore the metacognition learners use in social settings. Little is known about the comparison between how an individual student may use metacognition…

Effective learning design (LD) grounded in sound pedagogy is a critical driver of student success. Therefore, it is important to explore how LD of online learning environments influences student ability to manage their own learning. This understanding can inform the development of online programs that prioritize student-driven learning. Research…

Research on Self-regulated Learning (SRL) increasingly emphasises contextual factors, highlighting the contingent, dynamic and temporal nature of self-regulation. However, the experiential aspect of how learners actually perceive and engage with SRL still remains relatively unexplored. While SRL emphasises active learner involvement in learning,…

The aim of this study was to explore the use of in-between spaces to create music environments in a preschool setting. The research method was a 1.5-year case study of a preschool in northern Taiwan, focusing on innovative music environment creation in the in-between space. The implementation process was divided into three stages: exploration,…

The importance of goal clarity in college students' online self-directed learning cannot be overstated. Using micro-survey data from 1018 Chinese college students, this paper empirically investigates how goal clarity affects college students' perceived effectiveness of online self-directed learning using an ordered logit model. Subsequently, this…

This study examined the integration of Ottorino Respighi's art songs into vocal music teaching at Ningbo University through the development, implementation, and evaluation of a vocal techniques manual for undergraduate students. Conducted in four phases, it first analyzed Respighi's art songs and then assessed how teachers and students understood…

Smartphone addiction (SA) has become a pervasive issue among university students. Therefore, it is important to better understand the conditions under which SA develops. Previous studies indicate that fear of missing out (FoMO), a psychological barrier to behavioural self-regulation, is often associated with SA risk. In the pedagogical context,…

This study examined how sequential patterns of social regulation types including self-regulated learning (SRL), co-regulated learning (CoRL), and socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) emerge and interact during online collaborative learning (OCL), and how these patterns relate to different levels of social loafing. Interaction in…

"Toward Self-Directed Learning in the Secondary Classroom" explores the challenges teachers have faced and continue to face in a pandemic and post-pandemic context while attempting to implement self-directed learning in the secondary classroom. Drawing on contemporary research from around the world as well as candid interviews with…

Purpose: This study explores the impact of Industry Revolution 4.0 (IR4.0) on learning factory implementation in Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP). A learning factory is an action-oriented approach to teaching with participants acquiring competencies through structured self-learning processes in a production-technological learning environment. It…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to connect emerging conceptions of childhood in the capabilities approach (CA) literature to models of self-directed education in hopes of articulating and defending the educational goal of promoting children's participative capabilities. Design/methodology/approach: This paper offers a conceptual and…

In this article the authors explore the notion of 'common good' in relation to adult education. They do this by drawing upon the experiences of working-class family members who were both social learners and autodidacts, and who engaged in learning for their own sake and for what they believed to be the common good. The authors use diaries, letters…

This chapter describes the implementation and impact of a remediation program in the health sciences. Lessons learned are explored based on common academic difficulties students experience in remediation programs with an emphasis on self-regulated learning outcomes.
