Kang, Myunghee; Hahn, Jungsun; Chung, Warren – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2015
The Technology Enhanced Student Centered Learning (TESCL) Model in this study presents the core factors that ensure the quality of learning in a technology-supported environment. Although the model was conceptually constructed using a student-centered learning framework and drawing upon previous studies, it should be validated through real-world…

Trigwell, Keith; Ashwin, Paul; Millan, Elena S. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2013
Background: In separate studies and research from different perspectives, five factors are found to be among those related to higher quality outcomes of student learning (academic achievement). Those factors are higher self-efficacy, deeper approaches to learning, higher quality teaching, students' perceptions that their workload is appropriate,…

Stefanou, Candice; Stolk, Jonathan D.; Prince, Michael; Chen, John C.; Lord, Susan M. – Active Learning in Higher Education, 2013
Investigations of the relationships between contexts in which learning occurs and students' behaviours, cognitions and motivations may further our understanding of how instruction is related to students' development as self-regulated learners. In this study, student self-regulated learning strategies in problem-based learning and project-based…

Lawanto, Oenardi; Santoso, Harry B.; Liu, Yang – Educational Technology & Society, 2012
In this study, the relationship between students' interest in engineering design activities and their expectancy for success in grades 9-12 was evaluated. The theoretical frameworks developed by Eccles and colleagues (i.e., expectancy value) and Butler and Cartier (i.e., what the students bring to contexts under a self-regulated learning…

Lawanto, Oenardi; Stewardson, Gary – National Center for Engineering and Technology Education, 2009
The objective of this study was to evaluate grade 9-12 students' motivation while engaged in two different engineering design projects: marble-sorter and bridge designs. The motivation components measured in this study were focused on students' intrinsic (IGO) and extrinsic (EGO) goal orientations, task value (TV), self-efficacy for learning and…
