Applying a structural equations modelling methodology, the study analyses the relationships and effects of self-regulated learning (social interaction learning strategies and motivation) and first-year university experiences on permanence in the sophomore year. The participants are 239 first-year students in different Engineering degrees at a…

It is aimed to determine the strategies used by the fourth-grade elementary students during the operational estimations in this research which is designed by using basic qualitative analysis. The study group consists of 26 fourth-grade students selected through convenience sampling method and attending at a state school which was located in the…

In this book Bill Hanlon provides examples and recommends highly effective and practical instructional and assessment strategies that classroom teachers can immediately implement and that school administrators can readily observe. These high yield strategies build on accepted practices and directly address the needs of struggling students or…

To become an expert, it is typically accepted that one must learn a subject to accuracy. However, an alternate approach is to learn to fluency. Learning to fluency produces expert, competent performers. Previous studies have typically looked at the effects of learning to fluency for typically developing children and children with intellectual…

This paper presents a content analysis study that aimed at investigating the L2 learning strategies (LLS) across three units in each of the six textbooks in the new set of secondary school EFL textbooks, 'Mega Goal', based on the lists of learning strategies adapted from Chamot and Schmitt: (vocabulary learning strategies, reading strategies and,…

The aim or the present study was to examine the relative importance of financial education in school and families and dispositional factors (competitiveness, work mastery, meta-cognition) in predicting financial literacy among Finnish adolescents. The data on the 4328 Finnish 15-year-olds was drawn from the PISA 2018 assessment. Financial literacy…

Maintaining scientific literacy (SL) skill development in undergraduate science education while transitioning courses from the in-person to online learning environment due to the COVID-19 pandemic requires adaptation of some teaching practices. This study assessed the effectiveness of small online learning groups as the active engagement strategy…

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) require registered learners to be autonomous in their learning. Nevertheless, prior research studies showed that many learners lack the necessary self-regulated learning (SRL) skills to succeed in MOOCs. This research study aimed to gain insights into the relationships that exist between SRL and background…

There is a propensity for language teachers to handicap graduate students as independent, competent, and strategic academic writers. Therefore, it is easier to discover graduate students struggling intensely to produce and publish qualified academic writing products to targeted journal articles. Due to this ubiquitous fact, self-regulated learning…

In two earlier studies, we developed a new method to measure students' ability to transfer physics problem-solving skills to new contexts using a sequence of online learning modules, and implemented two interventions in the form of additional learning modules designed to improve transfer ability. The current paper introduces a new data analysis…

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education is being increasingly recognized as needing vital emphasis at a national level. To enhance learning in Science and Mathematics, the repertoire of vocabularies plays a significant role. As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues its spread across the world, people's…

Networked society before pandemic situation had become the context of a technology-supported environment for learning and teaching. Since COVID-19 pandemic occurred learning happened essentially mediated through connected smart devices that demand digital skills and reinforced Smart learning. This study aims to present a descriptive and…

This study addressed how to use service learning (SL) as a means of faith integration (FI) in a doctoral course on ethical leadership. Based on my 20 years of teaching experience in the field of education, my perception has been that graduate students sometimes complete their degree with a greater emphasis on self-actualization than on serving…

Combining wiki technology with the literature circles could be powerful and beneficial for promoting the learning of English as a foreign language (EFL). However, little research has been conducted to investigate the role of EFL students' social forms of regulatory strategies in their learning performance in the context of wiki-supported…

Anxiety can impact overall performance and persistence in college. Student response systems (SRSs), real-time active-learning technologies used to engage students and gauge their understanding, have been shown to elicit anxiety for some students. Kahoot! is an SRS technology that differs from others in that it involves gamification, the use of…
