Meng Qi Wu; Violet V. Cieslik; Safoura Askari; Allyson F. Hadwin; Moira Hood – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2024
Research that uses self-report measures to examine the complexity of self-regulated learning (SRL) and academic challenges for adolescents is limited. This study examined the psychometric property of the Self-Regulated Learning Profile and Self-Diagnostic (SRL-PSD) instrument and addressed the multi-components of SRL and academic challenges for…

Cognitive Load Theory and Its Relationships with Motivation: A Self-Determination Theory Perspective
Paul Evans; Maarten Vansteenkiste; Philip Parker; Andrew Kingsford-Smith; Sijing Zhou – Educational Psychology Review, 2024
Although cognitive load theory research has studied factors associated with motivation, these literatures have primarily been developed in isolation from each other. In this contribution, we aimed to advance both fields by examining the effects of instructional strategies on learners' experience of cognitive load, motivation, engagement, and…

Makransky, Guido; Klingenberg, Sara – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2022
Objective: Many industries struggle with training dynamic risk assessment, and how to bridge the gap between safety training and behavior in real life scenarios. In this article, we focus on dynamic risk assessment during a mooring operation and investigate the potential value of using immersive virtual reality (VR) simulations compared to…

Tingting Wang; Juan Zheng; Susanne P. Lajoie – Educational Technology & Society, 2025
Previous studies have confirmed the pivotal roles of student engagement in predicting learning achievements; however, only a few emphasized the patterns of different engagement dimensions within individuals (i.e., co-occurrences of behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement). Thus, this study identifies engagement profiles and explores their…

Utha, Karma; Subba, Bijoy Hangmo; Mongar, Bal Bahadur; Hopwood, Nick; Pressick-Kilborn, Kimberley – Asia Pacific Journal of Education, 2023
Secondary students' perceptions of learning science and mathematics have been researched internationally, but less in the global South. This study investigated Grades 9 and 10 students' experiences of learning biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics in Bhutanese secondary schools. A mixed-methods sequential design was used. First, 524 students…

Textbook Praxeological-Didactical Analysis: Lessons Learned from the Indonesian Mathematics Textbook
Yunianta, Tri Nova Hasti; Suryadi, Didi; Dasari, Dadan; Herman, Tatang – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2023
The objective of textbook study is to create high-quality textbooks. Analysis was done using a praxeological-didactical analysis (PDA) method. PDA offers space to analyze curriculum materials, such as math textbooks, which are the outcome of human action in the anthropology of a specific nation's society. There are 10 types of tasks given in the…
