Pair programming is a technique in which two students collaborate on programming tasks. This study aimed to investigate attitudes, toward pair programming with a focus on anxiety, motivation, stress, and efficiency. The sample population consisted of 168 students from three primary schools in Vojvodina (Serbia). The students were aged 6.5-11 years…

It is known that teachers commonly utilize learning platforms equipped with Learning Analytics Dashboards (LAD) to support students in their Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) endeavors. However, students may struggle to effectively employ LAD due to a lack of sufficient metacognitive skills. Co-regulation of learning (CoRL) has been proven to…

Students learn not only directly from their teachers and books, but also by using their computers, tablets, and phones. Monitoring these learning environments creates new opportunities for teachers to track students' progress. In particular, this article is based on gathering real-time events as students interact with learning tools and materials…

Contract grading provides graduate-level students with greater control and autonomy within the learning process. The contract grading approach requires students to take greater responsibility for achieving course learning outcomes as well as allowing learners to adjust the style and focus of assignments to meet their own unique needs and desires.…

Regulation in effective learning can achieve knowledge and understanding of the material. However, in reality in the field, student self-regulation is still low. This is urgent to research because there are differences in theory, expectations, and reality in the field, so the research aims to analyze the influence of psychological factors on…

Writing is an essential component of scientific activity. As such, it is necessary to develop strategies to provide equitable training opportunities for science writing. In order to provide learners with ways to improve their writing regardless of their language background and/or institutional and departmental environments, this article describes…

Online courses have become an increasingly common feature of the higher education landscape, expanding access and offering flexibility for students. Yet, they also pose unique challenges. Research has documented concerning performance gaps between students enrolled in face-to-face and online courses, while faculty have reported difficulties…

This study investigates the self-regulated learning strategies employed by students in computer programming courses. Utilising the Questionnaire on Learning Strategies in Computer Programming (CEAPC), the research aims to identify specific strategies used by students. The findings reveal a variety of effective learning strategies, including…

Engagement in self-regulated learning (SRL) may improve academic achievements and support development of lifelong learning skills. Despite its educational potential, many students find SRL challenging. Educational chatbots have a potential to scaffold or externally regulate SRL processes by interacting with students in an adaptive way. However, to…

Biography can be a valuable tool in understanding historical perspectives on adult learning. The purpose of this study was to look at three examples of times throughout Abraham Lincoln's life when he demonstrated a high level of self-directedness in learning in order to solve problems that he faced. Specifically, we examined (a) Lincoln's youth,…

Do all learners make the same restudy decisions, or is there heterogeneity within the population? The present study combines three previously published datasets and uses latent profile analysis to determine if subpopulations of learners can be identified that make different restudy decisions. Based on multiple fit indices, cross-validation, and…

In an ever-changing medical curricular environment, time dedicated for anatomical education has been progressively reduced. This happened at the University of Michigan Medical School starting in 2016-2017 when preclinical medical education was condensed to one year. Histology instruction remained integrated in organ system courses but reduced to a…

Gamification refers to the attempt to transform different kinds of systems to be able to better invoke positive experiences such as the flow state. However, the ability of such intervention to invoke flow state is commonly believed to depend on several moderating factors including the user's traits. Currently, there is a dearth of research on the…

This study expanded on the previous research on using a self-instructional manual for school staff to learn how to implement Discrete Trial Training (DTT). The purpose of this study was to teach public school staff how to implement DTT with fidelity, and to assess the useability and effectiveness, of an asynchronous online version of the DTT…

A national survey of American families was conducted to ascertain the extent of interest in self-directed education (SDE) in the United States. Our research took place in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic--a moment when we required a much better understanding of what parents need from the US education system. Data were gathered using an online…
