With the swift pivot to online learning, teachers and students have been forced to adopt a new way of teaching and learning, which has required students to become more self-directed in their learning. In addition, teachers are faced with the challenge of preparing students for the workforce and lifelong learning. One emerging approach for…

This research seeks to find the new trends in virtual reference and online learning by looking at the impact of COVID-19 on academic libraries, and by identifying gaps in professional development for academic librarians, particularly in reference and instruction. Responses from the surveyed academic librarians indicate that many services…

This study's purpose was to analyse the relationship between geometric thinking skills with self-regulated learning and with students' basic geometry skills. Furthermore, analyze student errors in solving geometry problems based on their self-regulated learning to determine the optimal geometry learning environment for geometry thinking skills.…

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the experiential learning cycle (ELC) and self-regulated learning (SRL), both implemented through a game-based approach (AI 2 Robot City board game), in fostering computational thinking (CT) and understanding of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in university level. The sample consisted of…

Self-directed learning enables students to take charge of their educational journey by selecting their own paths, thereby fostering intrinsic motivation. Traditional educational models often rely on extrinsic motivators like grades and rewards, whereas self-directed approaches emphasize personal satisfaction and curiosity. Review of existing…

Screen-based simulation (SBS) can complement traditional nursing courses. We compared the effect of innovative virtual environments not widespread in French nursing schools on self-efficacy, quiz performance, and self-regulated learning behaviors. This quasi-experimental study involved 1183 student nurses. Participants were divided into an…

This article describes the Teaching4Learning Program for new faculty at the University of Padova, Italy. The program places a strong emphasis on learner-centered teaching, transformative learning, self-directed learning and community of practice, promoting active learning while cultivating critical and creative thinking skills. This innovative…

AI-based bots (ChatGPT) are capable of solving mathematics problems, and students often use them for homework preparation, self-learning, etc. This raises a number of didactical and technical questions: How can students submit assignments containing complex mathematical expressions using only a keyboard? How should mathematics errors in ChatGPT's…

This study investigates the effectiveness of a modified flipped classroom that integrated with a technology-enhanced Predict-Observe-Explain strategy to improve students' self-regulated learning abilities, learning performance and science process skills in a secondary school in Hong Kong. An experimental group of modified flipped classroom (n =…

Through research-backed strategies and practical applications, author Julia A. Simms explores self-regulated learning, instructional sequences, and brain-based learning. She examines the development of cognitive and metacognitive skills, working memory, and effective explicit instruction, offering step-by-step guidance for teachers to facilitate…

"Online Program to Enhance Teacher Learning to Develop Students' Information Literacy Skills" is an expected result from the implementation of Research and Development under the following concept: "It begins with teacher learning development. Teachers then incorporate the learning outcomes into student development." Firstly, as…

Self-directed learning is a process by which students take the lead, with or without the help of others, in determining their learning needs and managing their learning strategies and outcomes. Relatedly, self-directed learning readiness (SDLR) looks at the attitudes, abilities, and personality characteristics necessary for self-directed learning.…

Under the sudden outbreak of COVID-19 worldwide, students were forced to switch from face-to-face to online learning. This study reports the experience of Hong Kong students in higher education concerning the challenges they faced, the strategies they used and the support they needed in their online learning during the period. An online…

Research data management is essential for high-quality reproducible research, yet relatively little is known about how research data management is practiced by graduate students in Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE). Prior research suggests that faculty in CEE delegate research data management to graduate students, prompting this…

Online learning has recently replaced traditional offline learning as the mainstream learning model for Chinese college students owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. This study examined the relationship between online self-regulated learning and academic procrastination among 1149 Chinese undergraduates who participated in online learning. The effects…
