This study investigates the self-regulated learning strategies employed by students in computer programming courses. Utilising the Questionnaire on Learning Strategies in Computer Programming (CEAPC), the research aims to identify specific strategies used by students. The findings reveal a variety of effective learning strategies, including…

Autistic students demonstrate poor academic performance which may be related to challenges in learning behaviors such as organization, planning, study skills, and so forth. Most studies report on summary scores; however, there may be value in understanding specific strengths and challenges to better inform assessment and intervention efforts. The…

Do all learners make the same restudy decisions, or is there heterogeneity within the population? The present study combines three previously published datasets and uses latent profile analysis to determine if subpopulations of learners can be identified that make different restudy decisions. Based on multiple fit indices, cross-validation, and…

Objective: It is not well understood whether heavy drinking interferes with academics on specific days or if this relationship simply reflects between-student differences. Participants: N = 736 college students completed 14 consecutive daily assessments during 7 semesters. Methods: Days were classified as non-drinking, moderate drinking, heavy…

To achieve meaningful learning experiences in online classrooms, students must become self-regulated learners through the development of effective study habits. Currently, there is no set of recommendations to promote study habits in online biology learning environments. To fill gaps in our understanding, a working group associated with a research…

Student persistence, retention, and completion are continued concerns in higher education. While external influences contribute to persistence and retention, the focus of this research study was to determine the academic self-efficacy and self-regulated factors that influence the academic achievement of first-time first-year students who persist…

Metacognition, the ability to self-regulate one's learning and performance, has been shown to improve student outcomes. Anatomy is recognized as one of the toughest courses in allied health curricula, and students could benefit from metacognitive activities. The purpose of this study was to explore the changes in metacognition of allied health…

We argue that current approaches to Study Skills support are presented as being a panacea for resolving the issues presented by neoliberal approaches to educational expansion. We argue that for such a panacea to be believed pedagogically effective, four key tenets must be adhered to: Study skills is a definable entity; it is valuable for every…

School or academic achievement is a relevant topic of study, as it is evidence of the learning achieved by the student. This study aims to explore a model explaining academic achievement while testing the mediator role of learning strategies, study habits and study attitudes. Research design was correlational. 1712 Dominican students from 12 to 20…

This study investigated the mediating influence of lecturers and students' characteristics on the acquisition of research skills among postgraduate students. We adopted a correlational research design involving (n = 628) postgraduate students who participated in the study. Two instruments, titled Postgraduate Lecturers' Characteristics Form (PLCF)…

Due to pandemic, the learning of the pupils shifts from face to face to alternative learning modules. It is determined that study habits are vital to the pupils' academic achievement. This quantitative study sought to determine the factors affecting the study habits of the Grade 6 pupils in Kalangahan Elementary School. Males are the most…

Novice chemists often struggle with the highly visual nature of some chemistry topics. To make visually demanding concepts, such as isomerism and stereochemistry, more accessible to students, chemistry instructors have long recommended the use of molecular model kits as visual aids. However, studies pertaining to student model usage have shown…

Much of learning analytics research has focused on factors influencing model generalizability of predictive models for academic performance. The degree of model generalizability across courses may depend on aspects, such as the similarity of the course setup, course material, the student cohort, or the teacher. Which of these contextual factors…

This study explored the learning patterns of undergraduate students in Kuwait using Vermunt's model and investigated the relationships between these patterns, cognitive engagement, and academic achievement. The ILS was used to identify the learning patterns of 563 university students. The three identified learning patterns were "active,…

Studyholism (SH) is a new potential clinical condition introduced in 2017 by Loscalzo and Giannini to refer to problematic overstudying, specifying that it might be associated with either high or low Study Engagement (SE). We aimed to analyze SH and SE's predictive role on academic resilience. We gathered 609 Indonesian youths, and we performed a…
