Background: The COVID-19 has accelerated the transition to blended learning (BL) in higher education, prompting a need for further investigation into the efficacy of self-regulated learning strategies (SRLS) in these new educational environments. Objective: The primary goal of this research is to assess the effectiveness of SRLS in BL in higher…

Active learning is considered by many academics as an important and effective learning strategy. Assessment is integrated in learning as a tool for learning, but traditional assessment methods often encourage surface learning (passive learning) rather than deep learning (active learning). Peer assessment is a method of motivating students,…

The aim of this study is to investigate students' use of cognitive learning strategies in inquiry-based computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL). A process-oriented interview framework on cognitive activity, self-regulation and motivation, and a coding category for analysing cognitive learning strategies and cognitive self-regulation was…

Many would agree that learning on the Web--a highly autonomous learning environment--may be difficult for individuals who lack motivation and self-regulated learning skills. Using a social cognitive view of academic motivation and self-regulation, the objective of the present study was to investigate the relations between students' motivational…

Discussion of electronic study books focuses on individual learning styles. Highlights include turning electronic books into electronic study books; the management of information; book users and product adaptation; learner characteristics and the learning environment; learner motivation; learning strategies; and a Style Initiating Module, used to…

Describes a study of undergraduates in Israel that examined the relationship between two distance learning ICT (information and communication technology)-based configurations. Results indicate that psychological attitudes held by students differentially facilitate efficient use of distance learning approaches. Considers satisfaction with learning,…
