In this commentary, the authors suggest that a paramount job for adolescent literacy assessment is to create more equitable outcomes for all students. The authors propose that the use of learning scales and micro-progressions fills a void and demonstrate how their use can provide better information to teachers and yield information that can…

A typical mathematics assignment consists of a block of problems devoted to the same topic, yet several classroom-based randomized controlled trials have found that students obtain higher test scores when most practice problems are mixed with different kinds of problems -- a format known as interleaved practice. Interleaving prevents students from…

Self-set educational goals are central to self-regulated learning and an observable manifestation of students' motivation. In this paper, we develop and trial a tagset for the characteristics of university students' self-set goals. The novelty of this approach consists in using data-driven, non-exclusive tags, rather than theory-derived, exclusive…

This study examined age-related differences in the effectiveness of two generative learning strategies (GLSs). Twenty-five children aged 9-11 and 25 university students aged 17-29 performed a facts learning task in which they had to generate either a prediction or an example before seeing the correct result. We found a significant Age × Learning…

Despite being a popular research subject internationally, self-regulated learning is relatively under-investigated in the Indonesian context. This article examined student learning motivation and its use as an indicator to predict student learning strategies in an Indonesian school context. This article applied quantitative research design, with…

This study examined the development of students' language skills in a flipped English foreign language course designed with self-regulated learning strategies. The study was conducted with a quasi-experimental design. While the experimental group received the course through flipped classroom model designed with self-regulated learning strategies,…

Division is an essential skill for math fluency and achievement in higher-order math skills. Using a partial quotients algorithm is one way to support a student's ability to develop both conceptual and computational knowledge of long division. We used the self-regulated strategy development (SRSD) framework to develop lesson plans and a mnemonic…

Middle school teachers are being urged to involve students in inquiry learning to counter disengagement from learning common in this group. To do this, teachers need to develop students' self-directed learning (SDL) skills so they will be equipped to take responsibility for their learning. This study collected perspectives of four years 6 and 7…

We examine a hypothesis implied by Steffe's constructivist model of children's numerical reasoning: a child's "spontaneous" additive strategy may relate to a foundational form of multiplicative reasoning, termed multiplicative double counting (mDC). To this end, we mix quantitative and qualitative analyses of 31 fourth graders' responses…

It is clear that language learning strategies play very important roles in the understanding of language learning processes, as well as in the skills students develop in learning a foreign or second language. In this study, studies on language learning strategies in teaching Turkish to foreigners were examined. In this context, content analyses of…

Collaborative inquiry-based learning (CIBL) is a notable instructional method used to nurture students' higher order thinking skills. Few studies, however, have examined the mediating effect of learning approach (i.e., deep approach and surface approach) as an essential component in collaborative inquiry-based learning and the association between…

This study aimed to: (1) identify vocabulary learning strategies (VLSs) employed by Turkish EFL learners; and (2) determine whether the use of VLSs varies by gender. To achieve these aims, the "vocabulary learning strategies scale" developed by Kocaman and Kizilkaya Cumaoglu (2014) was administered to preparatory school students (n=209)…

There is substantial evidence that students' use of self-regulated learning strategies is directly related to their motivation to achieve desired learning outcomes (designated outcome motivation: OM). Further, motivational beliefs about the strategies themselves (designated strategy motivation: SM) may also influence strategy use. In the absence…

Precision education is now recognized as a new challenge of applying artificial intelligence, machine learning, and learning analytics to improve both learning performance and teaching quality. To promote precision education, digital learning platforms have been widely used to collect educational records of students' behavior, performance, and…

Literature at the secondary level has demonstrated a tight interconnectedness between one's beliefs about teaching and learning and one's instructional practices. Moreover, this research indicates that personal and contextual factors influence beliefs and that growth and changes in beliefs are most notable during the early years of one's teaching…
