Laura Dörrenbächer-Ulrich; Jörn R. Sparfeldt; Franziska Perels – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Self-regulated learning (SRL) encompasses cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational learning strategies and is highly relevant for academic achievement. Although students have mostly acquired high-level SRL strategy knowledge by the time they reach college, they often show deficiencies in their application of SRL strategies. In order to…

Mary Opio-Göres; Ingo Kollar; Birgit Dorner – Journal of Social Work Education, 2024
Assessing cases of child welfare requires the ability to engage with different sources of information systematically. This study examined how case-based learning (CBL) can be used to support social work students (N = 104) acquire knowledge crucial to assessing cases of child welfare and whether benefits of CBL could be maximized by structuring the…

Edossa, Ashenafi Kassahun; Neuenhaus, Nora; Artelt, Cordula; Lingel, Klaus; Schneider, Wolfgang – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2019
Knowledge about one's own cognitive processes is the basis for the monitoring and regulation of learning processes for effective reading comprehension. Taking verbal cognitive ability into account, the present study aimed to examine the developmental trajectories of reading comprehension and declarative metacognitive knowledge and their…

Prinz, Anja; Golke, Stefanie; Wittwer, Jörg – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
Misconceptions impair not only learners' comprehension of a text but also the accuracy with which they judge their comprehension, that is, "metacomprehension accuracy." Refutation texts are beneficial to elicit conceptual-change processes and thus to overcome the detrimental impact of misconceptions on comprehension. However, it is…

Schweder, Sabine – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2019
It is well known that self-efficacy positively affects students' learning behavior. However, less is known about this association in self-directed learning, which additionally promotes student's control strategies. To close this gap, this study tested whether control strategies mediate the association between self-efficacy and effort investment,…

Daumiller, Martin; Dresel, Markus – Journal of Experimental Education, 2019
Studying with digital media, learners often struggle because of inadequate self-regulation. Previous research presented clear evidence of metacognitive prompts being effective in supporting learning with digital media. This study examines the potential of motivational regulation prompts, which are assumed to additionally support self-regulated…

Eckhardt, Marc; Urhahne, Detlef; Harms, Ute – Education Sciences, 2018
Intuitive knowledge seems to influence human decision-making outside of consciousness and differs from deliberate cognitive and metacognitive processes. Intuitive knowledge can play an essential role in problem solving and may offer the initiation of subsequent learning processes. Scientific discovery learning with computer simulations leads to…

Salle, Alexander – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
This exemplary case study describes the learning process of two sixth-graders that learn from an animated worked-out example and an accompanying self-explanation prompt in the domain of fractions. It is based on a corresponding field study. The analysis focuses on the interaction with the computer, the communication between the students, the…

Sonnenberg, Christoph; Bannert, Maria – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2015
According to research examining self-regulated learning (SRL), we regard individual regulation as a specific sequence of regulatory activities. Ideally, students perform various learning activities, such as analyzing, monitoring, and evaluating cognitive and motivational aspects during learning. Metacognitive prompts can foster SRL by inducing…

Rott, Benjamin – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2013
It is well known that the regulation of processes is an important factor in problem solving from Grade 7 to university level (cf. Mevarech & Kramarski, 1997; Schoenfeld, 1985). We do not, however, know much about the problem-solving competencies of younger children (cf. Heinze, 2007, p. 15). Do the results of studies also hold true for…

Wrembel, Magdalena – Language Awareness, 2015
The paper focuses on an unexplored area of metalinguistic awareness in the acquisition of third language (L3) phonology, hereafter referred to as metaphonological awareness. It addresses the role of attention and noticing in input processing. The contribution constitutes a part of a larger scale project on metaphonological awareness in various…

Mühlfelder, Manfred; Konermann, Tobias; Borchard, Linda-Marie – Journal of Problem Based Learning in Higher Education, 2015
In this paper we describe a "Train the Tutor" programme (TtT) for developing the metacognitive skills, facilitator skills, and tutor skills of students in a problem based learning (PBL) context. The purpose of the programme was to train 2nd and 3rd year undergraduate students in psychology to become effective PBL tutors for…

Kuzle, Ana – Center for Educational Policy Studies Journal, 2013
Despite a great deal of research on the benefits of writing in mathematics, writing plays a minimal role, if any, in secondary and tertiary mathematics education. In order for teachers to use writing in their classrooms, they themselves have to experience writing mathematics within the teacher education programme. The present paper reports on a…

The IADIS CELDA 2012 Conference intention was to address the main issues concerned with evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and applications in the digital age. There had been advances in both cognitive psychology and computing that have affected the educational arena. The convergence of these two disciplines is increasing at a…
