In spite of the emergence of studies seeking to integrate chatbot into education, there is a wide literature gap in the Nigerian contexts. While most studies focus on the design and development of chatbots, there exists a very scarce literature on the effect of ChatGPT chatbot on students' achievement. To address this gap, this study checked the…

Mothers of the digital era, as their children's media educators, need to acquire media literacy skills more than ever. Despite the importance of media literacy training for mothers, there has been limited research in this field. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Self- Paced Learning (SPL) and Community of Inquiry (CoI)…

Teachers' self-efficacy in promoting self-regulated learning (TSE-SRL) is pivotal for self-regulated learning (SRL) practices. This study investigated the effects of mastery and vicarious experiences as sources of self-efficacy within a professional development (PD) program on TSE-SRL. Additionally, the moderating role of teachers' prior SRL…

This study investigated how a digital game-based learning (DGBL) environment affected low- (LP) and high-proficiency (HP) primary school students' self-regulated learning strategies and vocabulary development. Data were collected from 62 sixth graders (20 LP and 20 HP students) who learned English as a Foreign Language (EFL). The statistics…

Knowledge surveys (KS) are a student self-assessment tool consisting of an ability statement for each learning objective in a course. Students respond by rating their confidence in performing a specified skill. Pre-unit KS transparently communicate learning objectives, alert faculty to self-assessed knowledge and skills students possess as they…

Drawing on the Self-Determination Theory (SDT), this study explored how writing a learner diary impacts students' ability to learn autonomously in an intermediate Korean language class. Researchers conducted a qualitative analysis involving nine participants who used weekly learner diaries, questionnaires, and exit interviews. The findings…

The use of videos in online learning is well established. However, the effectiveness of self-made videos in a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC)-based Flipped Classroom (FC) model remains unclear. This study examines whether self-made videos can enhance self-regulated learning (SRL) among pre-service English language teachers. The research employs…

The increasing trend of anxiety among students is closely linked to psychological safety, which refers to an environment where individuals feel comfortable expressing their thoughts without fear of negative consequences. Conversely, environments lacking psychological safety can heighten anxiety. This report examines the impact of transitioning…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is crucial for successful lifelong learning and an important educational goal. For students to develop SRL skills, they need appropriate SRL support from teachers in the classroom. Teachers, who are aware of their students' strengths and weaknesses in SRL, can promote SRL more adaptively. This requires teachers to…

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools were met with a mix of enthusiasm, skepticism, and fear. AI adoption soared as people discovered compelling use cases--developers wrote code, realtors generated narratives for their websites, students wrote essays, and much more. Calls for caution attempted to temper AI enthusiasm. Experts highlighted…

Medical education is undergoing various transformations to promote a more personalized and contextual way of learning. In light of this, the innovative "Self-directed, Problem-oriented, Lifelong learning, Integrated Clinical case Exercise" (SPLICE) modules were designed, implemented, and evaluated for medical students in the first…

This study examines lifelong learning as it pertains specifically to professional growth for university educators in Kuwait. Moreover, it looks at how self-directed and lifelong learning are interrelated. The findings of this study indicate a significant direct relationship between lifelong learning factors, including motives, attitudes, and…

As generative AI tools are increasingly popular in today's teaching and learning process, challenges and opportunities occur at the same time. Self-directed learning has been regarded as a powerful learning ability that supports learners in informal learning contexts and its importance rises in salience when incorporating AI into learning. This…

Background: Scholars have confirmed the vital roles of self-regulated learning (SRL) behaviours in predicting task performance, especially within non-linear technology-rich learning environments (TREs). However, few studies focused on the learning costs (e.g., study effort and time-on-task) related to SRL and the efficiency outcome of SRL (i.e.,…

Self-directed learning with mobile technology (SDLMT) is critical to students' learning success. However, only minimal research has been conducted on the manner by which significant aspects (e.g., selfefficacy, student engagement) are related to SDLMT. This study analyzed the answers of 485 Chinese students (seventh to ninth grades) who were…
