Direct linkKoriat, Asher – Learning and Instruction, 2012
The articles in this Special Issue reflect the growing interest in applying laboratory-based research to educational settings. These articles highlight the contribution of metacognitive monitoring and self-regulation to effective learning and performance. At the same time, they illustrate the methodological and theoretical challenges involved in…

Efklides, Anastasia – Learning and Instruction, 2012
The commentary discusses phenomena highlighted in the studies of the special issue such as the hypercorrection effect, overconfidence, and the efficiency of interventions designed to increase monitoring accuracy. The discussion is based on a broader theoretical framework of self-regulation of learning that stresses the inferential character of…

Dunlosky, John; Rawson, Katherine A. – Learning and Instruction, 2012
The function of accurately monitoring one's own learning is to support effective control of study that enhances learning. Although this link between monitoring accuracy and learning is intuitively plausible and is assumed by general theories of self-regulated learning, it has not received a great deal of empirical scrutiny and no study to date has…

Nuckles, Matthias; Hubner, Sandra; Renkl, Alexander – Learning and Instruction, 2009
Learning protocols are a self-guided way of writing that allows for elaboration and reflection on learning content. In an experimental study (N = 103), we supported protocol writing with prompts to elicit important strategies as postulated by a cyclical model of self-regulated learning. Students received either (a) no prompts, (b) cognitive…

Kramarski, Bracha; Michalsky, Tova – Learning and Instruction, 2010
The present study investigated effects of two hypermedia environments on 95 preservice university teachers' self-regulated learning (SRL) in the context of technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPCK): hypermedia with metacognitive instruction (HYP + META) and without (HYP). The study combined online reflections with self-report measures to…

Kapa, Esther – Learning and Instruction, 2007
A new computerized environment introducing a variety of metacognitive support mechanisms (MSMs) in different phases of the problem-solving process was designed to influence students' transfer from solving structured problems (near transfer) to solving open-ended problems (far transfer). Two hundred and thirty one students (aged 13-14 years) were…

Prins, Fran J.; Veenman, Marcel V. J.; Elshout, Jan J. – Learning and Instruction, 2006
Three models representing different relations between intellectual ability, metacognitive skills, and learning were compared. The conditions under which each of these models holds were investigated, on the basis of the threshold of problematicity theory [Elshout, J. J. (1987). Problem solving and education. In E. De Corte, H. Lodewijks, R.…

Peer reviewedBerry, John; Sahlberg, Pasi – Learning and Instruction, 1996
A research project using an instrument designed to allow teachers to investigate their students' ideas about learning found that the ideas of 193 English and Finnish adolescents about learning were varied, without clear understanding of how they learned. Finnish students seemed to depend more on their teachers than did English students. (SLD)

Peer reviewedvon Wright, Johan – Learning and Instruction, 1992
The development of reflective processes and the role of self-reflection in learning are examined. It is suggested that analysis of levels of conceptions or psychological processes through the phenomenographic method may clarify the development of metacognitive beliefs. Learning to use metacognitive knowledge and training reflective skills are…

Peer reviewedVolet, Simone E. – Learning and Instruction, 1991
Results from an experiment with 28 experimental and 28 matched control college students taking a 13-week computer science course support the potential of modeling and coaching students in metacognitive strategies to enhance learning. The instructional method had significant long-term and short-term effects on cognitive and affective learning…
