Supporting students' self-regulated learning (SRL) is essential in education, yet most interventions adopt a one-size-fits-all approach, overlooking individual differences in students' ability to engage in SRL. Tailored instruction requires reliable assessment tools that distinguish between students' "availability" (knowledge) and…

This study presents a new instrument for assessing reflective thinking, self-efficacy, and self-regulated learning (SRL) among Universitas Terbuka postgraduate students registered in an online Research Methods course. The study validates the instrument's dependability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.918) and builds a strong factor structure by means of…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) encompasses cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational learning strategies and is highly relevant for academic achievement. Although students have mostly acquired high-level SRL strategy knowledge by the time they reach college, they often show deficiencies in their application of SRL strategies. In order to…

The objective of this study is to assess students' perceptions of self-directed learning (SDL) skills in online learning using the Turkish version of the Self-Directed Online Learning Scale (SDOLS-T). To achieve this objective, the original SDOLS in English was translated into Turkish using the back-translation method. Subsequently, two separate…

This study investigates the adaptation and validation of Turkey's Cognitive Style and Learning Style Inventories, highlighting cultural and educational impacts on cognitive and learning styles. By utilising SPSS and the Multidimensional Item Response Theory via R programming, this study assesses these tools among the 185 Turkish participants. A…

This study adapted and validated Barnard's Online Self-Regulated Learning Questionnaire (OSLQ) to assess adult learners' (n = 1302) online self-regulation, and examined its relation with attitude towards online learning and perceived online learning satisfaction. It was found that age and employment status were important demographic factors…

The present study aims to bridge the gap of validating the Vocabulary Learning Strategies in Watching Audiovisual Materials (VLSWAM) questionnaire, a tool designed to assess strategies learners use to acquire vocabulary through audiovisual content. Grounded in multimedia learning theory, the study employed exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and…

This study examined the role of growth mindset, self-efficacy, and intrinsic value in self-regulated learning (SRL) and English language learning achievements in Hong Kong primary school students. A sample of 690 4th graders participated in the study. The findings suggest that the level of SRL strategy use (i.e. monitoring, effort regulation, and…

The Self-Regulation for Learning -- Online (SRL-O) scale was developed to encompass a broad range of motivational beliefs and learning strategies commonly used in online or blended learning environments. This study aims to determine the validity and reliability of the SRL-O scale, developed by Broadbent et al. (2023) to address shortcomings in…

Pre-enrolment self-assessments are a promising way to address student commitment and retention in an early stage. Such assessments aim to inform study decisions by evoking reflection and providing advice for further preparation. Though these assessments require a solid validation process, so far the consequential validity aspect tends to be…

With recent technological advances, researchers have begun to explore the potential use of spoken dialog systems (SDSs) for L2 oral communication assessment. While several studies support the feasibility of building these systems for various types of oral tasks, research on the construct validity of SDS-delivered tasks is still limited. Thus, this…

Integrating educational assessment tools, such as the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ), into university classrooms can help students and faculty gain insight into areas of strength and challenge for students. The present study adapted and integrated the MSLQ into a set of first-year communication courses for Faculty of Arts…

Advances in information and communication technologies (ICT) coupled with artificial intelligence have made computer programming skills indispensable for IT majors and for an increasing number of other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Like any hands-on skill, mastering computer programming requires dedicated…

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a vocabulary size test is a valid and reliable measure of longitudinal growth in vocabulary size (VS), and to investigate the relationship between growth in VS and use of vocabulary learning strategies (VLS). Kasahara's (2006) revised version of Mochizuki's (1998) Vocabulary Size Test (VST) was…

Adaptive Learning (AL), a new web-based online learning environment, requires self-regulated learners who act autonomously. However, to date, there appears to be no existing model to conceptualize different aspects of SRL skills in Adaptive Learning Environments (ALE). The purpose of this study was to design and empirically evaluate a theoretical…
