This quantitative study seeks to explore intrinsic motivation amongst students in post-secondary education. The sample includes 55 undergraduate students currently enrolled in a college of education teaching methods course. The researchers sought to explore the correlation between intrinsic motivation and key variables such as academic…

This study elucidates how information processing and self-questioning strategies are used in the context of online flipped teaching. A 6-week quasi experimental study was conducted to investigate online flipped teaching with the goal of exploring the impacts of two learning strategies, that is, annotation-summarizing-questioning (ASQ) and concept…

This study applied a person-oriented approach to differentiate middle school students' academic achievement and psychological well-being. The profiles were identified according to their learning-related motivational beliefs (indicating how motivated they are to learn effectively) and the perceived effectiveness of learning strategies (about how…

Background: Starting a study programme at an university, students are confronted with rising requirements regulating their learning processes and motivation. Both difficulties due to this regulation and the quality of instruction are associated with students dropping out from a study programme in the research. Aims: The purpose of this research is…

Background: Collaboration is a crucial concept in learning and has the potential to foster learning. However, the fact that collaborative groups act with a common understanding in a common task brings many difficulties. Therefore, there is a need for group regulation and guidance to support effective group regulation in collaborative learning. On…

Motivation is one of the keys to success in challenging courses such as human anatomy and physiology (A&P) and may occur in the form of intrinsic motivation (IM, motivation for enjoyment), extrinsic motivation (EM, motivation for reward), and/or amotivation (AM, lack of motivation). The goal of this study was to identify ways of supporting…

In today's dynamic and high-tech learning environment, offering flexible and innovative assignment options is crucial for engaging students across varied learning preferences and backgrounds. Alternative formats, such as gamification and storyboards, can boost engagement, spark creativity, and enhance learning outcomes in college classrooms. By…

While previous research emphasized the effects of self-regulated learning on academic achievement, this study expands the scope of self-regulated learning to career-development processes. This study examines how young people build their employability through self-regulated learning processes and whether career maturity might be a critical…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of self-regulated programming learning on undergraduate students' academic performance and motivation compared to traditional methods. Design/methodology/approach: This study was conducted with an explanatory sequential mixed method. Participants consist of 31 undergraduate students…

It has been suggested that self-organized study groups need to regulate their learning at three levels: the self-, the co-, and the socially shared level. Yet, little is known about how individual learner characteristics influence these regulation processes. In this study, we investigate how students' achievement goals are associated with…

Background: Encouraging students to adopt a mastery goal orientation can help increase learning and motivation. However, the effect of mastery goal orientation interventions specifically in upper-division online elective psychology courses has not been studied. Objective: The purpose of this replication study was to examine the effects of a…

Self-monitoring is an integral part of self-regulated learning. Tools that foster learners' monitoring, such as learning journals, portfolios, or rubrics, are supposed to promote self-regulation and to improve performance. The aim of this meta-analysis was to examine the effectiveness of tools designed to foster monitoring on learning-related…

This research presents a proposed approach that could be applied in modeling students' study strategies and performance in higher education. The research used key learning attributes, including intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, autonomy, relatedness, competence, and self-esteem in the modeling. Five machine learning models were…

Enrolment in master's programmes, especially online ones, has increased exponentially in recent years. This article analyses the relationship that several sociodemographic and academic variables have with motivational components, self-regulation, study approaches, and competence development in online university postgraduate students. The following…

Purpose: This study addresses gaps in the existing literature on students' understanding of Independent Learning (IL), whilst exploring the link between levels of IL, growth mindset, motivated strategies for learning and academic performance. Design/methodology/approach: Three hundred and eighty-six university students recruited via opportunistic…
