Cognitive learning strategies are seen as a central element for successful learning. Acquiring knowledge about its worth, can support persons in sophisticated groups in attaining academic success. Consequently, the authors are interested in domain-specific learning strategies for mathematics in the academic disciplines of economics and engineering…

The success of online learning relies on college students' self-regulated learning. The common visualizations (e.g., presentation learning behaviors' frequency and duration) are widely used to enhance online self-regulated learning. But most college students still have difficulty in accurately understanding their learning patterns and…

Student performance, disciplinary innovation and teaching methodology occupy the main concerns of educational research. Therefore, there is a greater interest in gamification strategies, where digital tools facilitate the development of competitive activities and strengthening of learning. One example of this idea is the use of video games created…

When learning with self-testing alone, will a learner make inferences between the tested items? This study examines whether self-testing's benefits extend beyond isolated facts to support broader connections between the facts. Comparing self-testing to self-explanation (a strategy known to facilitate inferential learning), we find that while…

The present study tested the relationship between digital literacy skills and autonomous learning strategies in high school students in southern Sonora to see their impact on the training processes implied by the digital age. A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional study of correlational scope was conducted with 365 secondary school…

This study used the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) to assess the motivation and learning strategies of students in a self-paced developmental mathematics class. A total of 194 undergraduate students participated in this study. Descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, and regression analysis were conducted to assess…

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has quickly become prolific in our daily lives, including the higher education sector. Although an AI-fuelled world is unpredictable, there is an urgent need to understand how university students use GenAI to support their learning and the factors influencing GenAI adoption. In this study, underpinned by…

Around twenty thousand adult learners enrol onto Welsh language classes each year, but many do not progress beyond "Mynediad level" (= Entry, CEFR A1). The study reported here explored techniques to maintain early learning momentum, maximise learners' returns for their learning efforts, and accelerate initial vocabulary acquisition.…

Numerous studies have demonstrated that the retrieval of information through testing can enhance long term memory. Data has been less clear concerning the utility of concept mapping as an alternative retrieval practice technique. The study described here extended that research by matching the time for different study conditions, by utilizing…

The use of manipulatives to develop conceptual understanding is a prevalent practice in many mathematical learning experiences, particularly in the early years of schooling. From "primary student perspectives," our understanding of the impact of manipulatives in mathematics education on students' "attitudes" is limited. This…

Fragmenting plays a pivotal role in facilitating the transition to learn different topics of fractions such as unit fractions. This paper contributes to the body of knowledge by presenting an updated fragmenting framework, informed by empirical findings derived from an investigation into the fragmenting schemes exhibited by first and second grade…

Summative assessment is often considered a motivator that drives students' learning. Higher education has a responsibility in promoting lifelong learning and assessment plays an important role in supporting students' capability to make evaluative judgements about their work and that of others. However, as research often focuses on formal…

Self-regulated learning (SRL)-promoting practices enhance students' positive academic, social, and emotional development. While effective, these practices are complex and often difficult for teacher candidates (TCs) to learn and implement. This theoretical review presents the benefits and challenges of SRL-promoting practices and examines how TCs'…

A 2015 Barna report revealed that a meager 20 percent of regular church attenders in the United States participate in any church discipleship activities. With declining attendance and more than four thousand churches closing in the United States since 2019, one would wonder what impact this lack of discipleship has had on the overall health of the…

The present research conducted two experiments with an intelligent tutoring system to investigate the overall and dynamic impact of emotional support from a pedagogical agent (PA). In Experiment 1, a single factor intergroup design was used to explore the impact of PA's emotional support (supportive vs. non-supportive) on learners' emotions,…
