The primary goal of the present study was to examine the relationship between academic buoyancy, academic emotions, and self-regulated learning (SRL) writing strategies in the second or foreign language (L2) writing context. Particularly, we aimed to investigate whether the relationships between writing buoyancy and SRL writing strategies…

Substantial research indicates that students' beliefs mediate learning strategies. Nevertheless, students' strategy-related beliefs about feedback and their mediation on strategies to act on feedback are insufficiently addressed. This case study aimed to examine: (1) students' strategy-related beliefs about feedback in L2 writing and (2) how…

Despite its relevance with English language studies, not many studies have been carried out on the effect of self-regulation on writing strategies in Indonesia. This research attempted to test the effect of individual differences, particularly gender and academic interest, on writing strategies based on self-regulation while taking into account…

While research into strategy-based instruction and language learning emotions has been thriving over decades as respective domains, research on how strategy-based interventions may influence learners' writing enjoyment has largely remained unexplored. Informed by (Positive Psychology) PP theories, this mixed-methods study aims to investigate the…

The present study investigated the profiles of motivational regulation strategies for writing (MRSW) and examined the relationship between learners' use of MRSW and their English writing performance across different profiles. L2 Writing Strategies for Motivational Regulation Questionnaire (L2WSMRQ) was administered to examine the potential…

This study examines the predictive effects of motivational beliefs and self-efficacy on multiple dimensions of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies in English as a foreign language (EFL) writing. Undergraduate students (n = 389) were recruited voluntarily from four universities in mainland China. They were invited to complete a set of…

This study examines the relationship between EFL students' noticing and three written feedback strategies. The convenience sampling method was adopted and four intact classes were randomly assigned into four groups: the model, the error correction, the reformulation, and the control groups. After the completion of picture-cued writing tasks as…

This research investigated language learning strategies used in English writing by 100 Thai undergraduate students. It analyzed differences in the use of language learning strategies in English writing in the second semester of the 2019 academic year at Kasetsart University in Chonburi, Thailand. The research instrument was a 50-item questionnaire…

This study aimed to examine the relationships between motivational variables, self-regulated writing strategy use and writing competence with 511 fourth graders in Hong Kong. The high writing achievers reported a higher level of motivation, i.e. self-efficacy, task values (i.e. interest and utility) and growth mindset in English writing than the…

This paper presents a content analysis study that aimed at investigating the L2 learning strategies (LLS) across three units in each of the six textbooks in the new set of secondary school EFL textbooks, 'Mega Goal', based on the lists of learning strategies adapted from Chamot and Schmitt: (vocabulary learning strategies, reading strategies and,…

The study aims to explore the impacts of an online training scheme developed for higher education learners that integrates self-regulated learning (SRL) writing strategies into screencast feedback in line with the cyclical model of SRL (i.e., forethought, performance, and reflection on performance phases). During each phase, cognitive,…

The present study reports on the effects of a self-regulated (SRL) writing strategy-based intervention supported with e-learning tools on SRL strategy use in English writing with 468 Hong Kong primary school students. The changes to the students' motivation in English writing, and their e-learning acceptance were also measured. The study adopted a…

Past studies have indicated that teachers' self-disclosure has a direct influence on students' learning. It has impacted students' motivation, participation, interest, affect for teacher and course, solidarity, affinity seeking behaviours and out-of-classroom communication. However, little is understood about how this phenomenon affects teaching…

Purpose: Polytechnic students lack basic skills, especially the writing skill essential for their employment. They find it difficult to write emails, reports, and other technical documents required at their workplace. Although there are studies to investigate this skill-gap, there is little research to explore the possibilities for enhancing their…

The story of Enlightenment literacy is often reconstructed from textbooks and manuals, with the implicit focus being what children were reading. But far less attention has been devoted to how they mastered the scribal techniques that allowed them to manage knowledge on paper. Focusing on Scotland, handwritten manuscripts are used to reveal that…
