Most learner achievement studies tend to focus on identifying individual characteristics, ignoring the learning strategies that promote mathematical resilience. The focus of the study is on the assets embedded in an individual and their interplay with the environment. It is expected that resilience plays a deciding role in learners' foreground…

Vocational schools are the objects most affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, as a result the learning process that should be based on practice must be temporarily suspended and replaced with tasks. Therefore, this study aimed to describe learning activities in Vocational High Schools during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as lesson plan, students'…

This study sought to explore the frequency and type of language learning strategies employed by university students. It also investigated the impact of proficiency levels, gender and year of study on the use of language learning strategies. The study participants were 256 English major students enrolled in three universities in Saudi Arabia. This…

English Medium Instruction (EMI) in university courses is expected to have positive effects on university students' English language learning in non-English-speaking countries since they can learn English on campus (Macaro, 2018). For successful second language learning, efficient use of second language (L2) learning strategies is essential (Cohen…

This study aimed; (1) to investigate student responses toward the use of android-based media assisted by Smart Apps Creator for mathematics learning; (2) to investigate student self-regulated learning level; (3) to find out whether there was an effect using Android-based mathematics learning media assisted by Smart Apps Creator on student…

The purpose of this qualitative narrative inquiry study was to explore the experiences of Texas higher education faculty in early childhood educator preparation programs (EPP) with the use of cooperative learning (CL) strategies in a synchronous online learning environment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The theory of social interdependence and the…

This research reports learning strategies of the first-year Estonian university students in mathematics. The data were collected during two years from 440 university students of different disciplines. The respondents were among students who take at least one compulsory mathematics course during their first study year. The participants filled out a…

Canadian citizens of Indigenous ancestry have statistically lower than national averages with respect to secondary and postsecondary completion rates. In an attempt to understand and assist Indigenous university students in Ontario, the purpose of the study was to identify teaching and learning strategies and support systems for Indigenous…

Learning to read relies upon the integration of phonological, orthographic, and semantic information. However, no studies have investigated how children with varying reading abilities learn phonological-orthographic (PO) and semantic aspects of novel words as a function of both learning approach (LA; e.g., learning new words in isolation or…

Instructional effects in creative-thinking tasks are important to understand in order to promote creative performance of individuals. In divergent-thinking tasks, for example, instructional and strategic enhancement effects have been extensively studied for verbal tasks. However, while studies on instructional enhancement effects on creative…

The purpose of this study is to determine the direct effect of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on learning behaviour; the direct effect of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and learning behavioural on learning achievement; the indirect effect of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation from learned behaviour to learning achievement; and the…

Mind maps are usually employed by teachers from all the educational levels as powerful learning strategies. This use enables important pedagogic achievements, but they do not exceed their maximum level, due to the dogmatic use of Tony Buzan's mind map (1996). Situation that would be different if it were entirely internalized, understand and…

Fluency is an important aspect of mathematics learning and plays a major role in developing proficiency as students are required to use skills and apply knowledge. This paper draws upon findings from a large project that aimed to explore primary students' mathematical fluency. Data from 160 primary students (K-6) from a NSW Departmental school…

This dissertation research focuses on investigating the incidence of student self-regulated learning behavior, and examines patterns in student affective states that accompany such self-regulated behavior. This dissertation leverages prediction models of student affective states in the Physics Playground educational game platform to identify…

Purpose: This study proposed a metacognition-inclusive self-regulated learning (SRL) approach to out-of-class listening practice and explored its impact on learners' listening performance and their reported use of self-regulatory listening strategies. Design/methodology/approach: Participants comprised 45 students learning English at a university…
