Prior work has developed a range of automated measures ("detectors") of student self-regulation and engagement from student log data. These measures have been successfully used to make discoveries about student learning. Here, we extend this line of research to an underexplored aspect of self-regulation: students' decisions about when to…

This study examined the effectiveness of online English learning among college students by integrating data from multiple learning behavior sources. The research revealed a bidirectional regulatory relationship between device environment and cognitive strategies, clarified the critical threshold for the regulation of metacognitive strategies, and…

The shift to hybrid learning during the COVID-19 pandemic emphasised the need for independent learning and effective digital resource management (RMS). This study, grounded in Social Cognitive Theory, examines how RMS supports students in managing digital distractions and optimising learning outcomes. Data from 275 randomly selected education…

This study investigated factors that constituted the digital and online learning environment at the University of Namibia during the COVID-19 pandemic; how these factors constrained or enabled the scaffolding of epistemological access and university students' success; and their implications for digital and online learning. A mixed research…

This study aimed to evaluate Promoting Reciprocal Relationships with Flexibility, Coaching, and Teaching (PRRFCT Match), a parent-mediated naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention package. An expansion from an earlier pilot study (see Kunze et al., 2021), PRRFCT Match incorporates virtual coaching between a novice coach and parent to…

In this paper, we report on a study involving third-year undergraduate mathematics students who were taking a course in Mathematics Education. The participants, prospective teachers, discussed typical misconceptions in mathematics. They first worked in Moodle environment communicating in small groups and with the whole class using Quick Chat…

Parental involvement has been recognised as a key factor in influencing children's educational outcomes, especially in the context of digital learning in primary education. The objective of this research was to systematically review the research on parental involvement in digital learning scenarios in primary education to understand the definition…

In-service teachers, constrained by work commitments, adopt online learning methods for their graduate studies, emphasizing the significance of exploring the construction of online learning communities. Analyzing collaborative conversation texts within the online learning process of the "Learning Science" course at a university in…

Student engagement is an important component in online learning environments; therefore, it is important to understand the most effective methods of student engagement in online education. Many of the current methods for assessing student engagement are linked to student performance in online learning. Using person-centered Classroom Assessment…

In recent years, online education in institutions of higher learning has exponentially expanded the application of digital approaches to learning. The Learning Management Systems (LMS) used by online instruction provide a variety of tools to enhance learning with peers and instructors (Yount & Neild, 2022). One such tool, Asynchronous…

Teachers often use open-ended questions to promote students' deeper understanding of the content. These questions are particularly useful in K-12 mathematics education, as they provide richer insights into students' problem-solving processes compared to closed-ended questions. However, they are also challenging to implement in educational…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) models have led to many positive changes in educational settings; however, the validity of the content they produce remains a significant topic of academic discussion. This research aims to determine the validity of content produced by text-to-image models within the context of social studies education.…

Behavioural engagement as a predictor of academic success hinges on the interplay between effort and time. Exploring the longitudinal development of engagement is vital for understanding adaptations in learning behaviour and informing educational interventions. However, person-oriented longitudinal studies on student engagement are scarce.…

In the first quarter of the 21st century, the interest and demand for online education continue to grow. The fact that online education is accessible without time and space constraints, enables lifelong learning, and is used in international emergencies such as COVID-19 are considered among the most critical factors in its increasing popularity…

Technology-rich learning environments in which students use digital devices such as laptops and tablets may over-task students' executive functions (EF). However, limited research has examined how well teachers understand these demands or recognize EF-related challenges in digital learning contexts. This study investigated U.S. K-12 teachers'…
