Cara E. Worick; Ellen L. Usher; Jennifer Osterhage; Abigail M. A. Love; Peggy S. Keller – Journal of Experimental Education, 2024
This study investigates associations between two types of control beliefs--self-efficacy for self-regulation and implicit theories of willpower--and undergraduate biology students' (N = 535) behavioral self-regulation and performance. Findings suggest that self-efficacy is the more proximally related motive for students to engage in academic…

Bogdanovic, Ivana Z.; Rodic, Dušica D.; Roncevic, Tamara N.; Stanisavljevic, Jelena D.; Zouhor, Zekri A. M. – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
The teachers should support students in acquiring knowledge and developing skills thus preparing them to think and learn independently. Considering this, the significance of implementing the modified Know-Want-Learn (KWL) teaching strategy, which directs students to perform metacognitive activities, becomes more evident. Quasi-experimental…

Zhang, Ningyu; Biswas, Gautam; Hutchins, Nicole – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2022
Strategies are an important component of self-regulated learning frameworks. However, the characterization of strategies in these frameworks is often incomplete: (1) they lack an operational definition of strategies; (2) there is limited understanding of how students develop and apply strategies; and (3) there is a dearth of systematic and…

Rao Bhagavathula, Venugopala; Bhagavathula, Viswakanth; Moinis, Rohan S.; Chaudhuri, Joydeep Dutta – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2022
The study of neuroanatomy imposes a significant cognitive load on students since it includes huge factual information and therefore demands diverse learning strategies. In addition, a significant amount of teaching is carried out through human brain demonstrations, due to limited opportunities for cadaveric dissection. However, reports suggest…

Keus, Kelly; Haave, Neil C. – Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, 2020
As key components of self-regulated learning, metacognition and goal orientation have been tied to improvements in academic achievement. Some research supports a bidirectional relationship between metacognition and goal orientation in which they promote each other as well as learning outcomes. We created a learning philosophy assignment (LP) to…

Sagun, Richard Deanne; Prudente, Maricar – Educational Action Research, 2023
The learning environment plays a crucial role in the promotion of school science. Redesigning the science classroom into a metacognitive learning environment is imperative in developing students' 21st century skills -- communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creative thinking. In this study, we exposed the students to a variety of…

Susantini, Endang; Sumitro, Sutiman Bambang; Corebima, Aloysius Duran; Susilo, Herawati – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2018
Strategies applied in this study consisted of a metacognitive strategy combined with cooperative learning (MSCL) and one without cooperative learning (MS). Both strategies used the self-understanding and evaluation sheet (SUES). The aims of this study were to investigate the effect of MSCL and MS on the quality of the learning process in genetics…
