Providing students with autonomy over their learning process can support the development of their self-regulation skills. This study aimed to examine the effects of autonomy-support interventions on students' self-regulated learning strategies. The participants were 432 students from three secondary schools in the Netherlands. In each school, a…

Purpose: Language learning is often conceptualized as a cognitive, psycholinguistic or pedagogical process confined to formal classroom contexts. Scant attention is paid to the autonomy of young learners in out-of-class situations. Methodology: Using an emic approach, this study attempts to fill the research gap by analyzing the visual and verbal…

This study aimed to develop and validate a scale of agentic engagement in massive open online courses (MOOCs). Initially, 14 items were derived through a literature review, from which 7 items were drawn through a Delphi survey. Sample sets were used to develop and confirm the constructs of the new scale proposed in this study. To examine…

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…

Purpose: Today's unpredictable and fast-changing work environment challenges researchers and organizations to rethink learning.

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…

In the literature on the relationship between learning environments and students' approaches to learning, much attention has been directed to aspects that foster a "deep approach." Considerably less attention has been directed to aspects that result in the opposite, namely a "surface approach." Indeed, there is a small…

This study aimed at investigating the language learning strategies and autonomy of 76 Indonesian EFL university students and examining the correlations between the two. The Oxford's (1990) Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) for ESL/EFL learners was used to collect the data on students' language learning strategy use and an adapted…

An increasing number of German schools have suspended teacher-directed learning (TL) in favor of self-directed learning (SL) modules. We used the broaden-and-build theory and self-determination theory as a theoretical framework to determine whether students in self-directed and teacher-directed learning environments differ in the interplay of…

This study aims to explore the autonomy level and use of language learning strategies in a preparatory school of a state university before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. One hundred fifty-five preparatory school students from a state university participated in the research. For the data collection, Oxford's Language Learning Strategy (LLS) and…
