Balwant, Paul T. – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2018
Despite the popularity of student engagement and, by association, student disengagement, the academic literature is unclear about the meaning of these terms.

Recent research, however, suggests that these judgments may be pivotal to conceptual change about certain topics where a gap exists between what scientists and laypersons find plausible.

Talmi, Deborah; Luk, Betty T. C.; McGarry, Lucy M.; Moscovitch, Morris – Journal of Memory and Language, 2007

Turner, Chris – School Leadership & Management, 2006
Much of the emphasis on the learning of subject leaders in secondary schools is placed on what Eraut (2000) terms "organised formal learning events". This article attempts to redress the balance by focusing on the somewhat neglected area of their informal learning about the role, which is predominantly based in the workplace. It is argued that…

Gorrell, Jeffrey – 1992
Learner-centered principles espoused by the American Psychological Association (APA) built on research of the last three decades suggest that learning does not simply entail coordinated cognitive processes. These 12 principles portray factors associated with learning as essential parts of the portrayal of learners as active creators of their own…
