The Learning and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI) is a widely recognised tool for assessing students' learning processes by measuring key components of their study behaviours and attitudes. This research explores the interplay of three components of the LASSI inventory, skill, will, and self-regulation, and their collective impact on English as…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) skills are essential for academic success, particularly in online learning environments. Artificial intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, present promising opportunities to support SRL. This case study explored the experiences and perceptions of online graduate students using ChatGPT to enhance their SRL. A…

This research arises as a necessity to solve deficiencies in basic mathematics in university students. The objective was to determine the effect on academic achievement when implementing a didactic strategy for learning arithmetic. The study design is pre-experimental with pretest and post-test. The participants of the experiment are freshman year…

Radiographers work with image production in medical imaging, a professional field that is undergoing rapid technical development. There is a need to understand how students in radiography education learn within this evolving practice. The aim of this paper is to investigate how radiography students learn professional knowledge in practice during…

The practice of self-designed or self-directed learning (SDL), is one approach outside the mainstream education system that can be applied by anyone, and in any circumstances. SDL means, first and foremost, that learners--from a young age on--decide what to learn based on their own interests and passions, how they want to learn it, how long they…

Communication is the result of meaning making based on one's frames of knowing. For students, those frames of knowing derive heavily from multimedia communication, including social networking sites, that allow them to be the makers of content. In this study, I followed an eighth-grade student who fluidly negotiated a multitude of available social…

Purpose: Educational organizations confront a number of failures along with successful practices. Although a potential learning source for organizations, failures encountered are not normally welcomed and utilized to improve future practices. However, the existing literature emphasizes that individuals and organizations can learn a lot from their…

Online learning poses challenges that students might never have encountered in a face-to-face learning environment. In learning English, students may confront more challenges as they need both cognitive and metacognitive skills in dealing with the dynamic lessons involving interaction, online exercises, and audio, video and text downloads. The…

Researchers of cognitive load theory and the cognitive theory of multimedia learning have identified several strategies to optimize instructional materials. In this review article we focus on five of these strategies or solutions to problematic instructional designs in multimedia learning: (a) the multimedia principle (use visualizations and…

Analyzing the learning analytics from a course provides insights that can impact instructional design decisions. This study used educational data mining techniques, specifically a longitudinal k-means cluster analysis, to identify the strategies students used when completing the online portion of an online flipped spreadsheet course. An analysis…

The focus of this study is to explore graduate students' understanding of time management in online learning environments. The study also explores how the graduate students perceive and prefer to receive regularity of learning feedback. Specifically, an exploratory study was conducted following a sequential mixed methods design, dominated by a…

This study explores the relationship between different smartphone reading annotation strategies and students' comprehension. Subjects in the study are 139 teenage students enrolled in a religion class in the Southwestern United States. Each of the participants utilized a digital reading app on their personal smartphone to read an 842-word…

One of the main challenges in intervention research today is understanding who benefits from universal school programs. Partly, this challenge involves capturing the diversity of experiences, needs, and traits in across students that may explain "who benefits" from interventions. Here, we studied "motivation profiles" (i.e.,…

Learning to write programs is hard, but many fail to even learn basic program reading skills, such as mentally tracing a program to predict its behavior. This dissertation argues a new theory of programming language knowledge that includes mappings from syntax to semantics and their nested combinations can serve as the basis for more granular…

Purpose: This study investigated the influence of students' conceptions of feedback (ScoF) dimensions on academic self-efficacy (SE) and self-regulation (SRG). Design/methodology/approach: The study employed the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach on a sample data of 528 students from ten different universities of…
