This study explores the relationship between technology-based collaborative learning and learners' social regulation, academic emotions, and academic presentation. The researchers invited 695 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students of different ages and learning backgrounds to participate in the research by questionnaire. The validated…

Writing a final thesis is an important step for many students. Many thesis programs in research-oriented fields are structured as projects in which there is a one-to-one working relationship with a supervisor. In addition, the thesis' final grade is often perceived as particularly important. This research uses a cross-sectional survey design (N =…

Students' excessive reliance on mobile phones during English classes diminishes their learning engagement and understanding, which in turn affects their academic performance. Teachers' prior observations at our selected university indicated that smartphone usage among English learners varied significantly across class groups and among individual…

This study aimed to investigate whether elementary school students have different reading strategies based on various levels of text-diagram integrative processing and whether these reading strategies remain consistent or change over a three-year period. The study followed 176 students from grades four to six and observed their eye movements while…

This research scrutinizes the link between academic stressors (both challenge and hindrance types) and the academic performance of university faculty, while also considering the mediating role of achievement motivation. Furthermore, the study evaluates the moderating influence of faculty self-efficacy on the relationship between these stressors…

This study investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of using a flipped classroom (FC) approach to combine self-regulated learning (SRL) instruction and out-of-class eLearning activities in a two-year reading intervention program to facilitate students' learning of classical Chinese reading. A total of 352 junior secondary students from three…

The ability to properly evaluate one's own academic progress has long been considered a predictor of academic success. However, its distinctive role in the context of computational mathematics remains underexplored. Grounded in social cognitive theory, this study investigates the critical role of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies in…

Around the globe, beginner sign language programs have seen surging enrolments in recent years. Yet relatively few learners progress to higher-level sign language study. In this article, we explore factors shaping retention and attrition among a cohort of 70 beginner Australian Sign Language (Auslan) students studying in a vocational education…

Purpose: A health learning program relying on the scientific method was designed to promote reducing the intake of foods high in sugar, sodium and saturated fat in a group of school-aged children. Design/methodology/approach: The scientific method was a core approach for creating intervention activities. We conducted mixed-methods research…

Background/purpose: This study conducts a systematic review of research articles related to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners' motivation under Organismic Integration Theory (OIT) in the early 2020s (between 2020 and 2024), based on PRISMA statement 2020 (Page et al., 2021), to find out about what recent trends in research on EFL…

Purpose: This research examines the complex relationship between usage of Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT) amongst student and their creativity, learning and assessment using empirical data collected from postgraduate students. In addition, the study explores the student's intrinsic motivation for usage to understand student…

The increasing use of low-stakes international assessments highlights the importance of test-taking efforts. Previous studies have used self-reported and response time-based measures to examine this effort. Although differences between these measures have been suggested, their association with performances and potential gender gaps remains…

Project-based learning (PJBL) emerges as an instructional teaching method promoting collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills among students. This pedagogical approach facilitates active engagement by forming student groups to collaboratively create and develop projects, thus, encouraging the exploration of diverse perspectives…

While team learning within engineering classrooms has been studied, minimal work has been done examining out-of-classroom collaboration to complete individual deliverables. However, such informal peer collaboration (IPC) is common among engineering undergraduates, and some evidence exists that low levels of IPC are associated with poorer learning…

Social media has a strong influence on the everyday lives of college students. A particular question of advanced research interest is whether social media also play a role when attending class. This exploratory study was aimed at designing a theoretical model that embraces such concepts. First, we identified that identity development, learning…
