Second language acquisition theory has traditionally focused on the cognitive and psycholinguistic processes involved in additional language (L2) learning. In addition, research on learner psychology has primarily centered on learners' cognitive abilities (e.g., aptitude and working memory) and internal traits or states (e.g., dispositions,…

This study addresses students' approaches to learning the double entry of a financial transaction. A phenomenographic approach was used to collect and analyse qualitative empirical data. By focusing on an under-researched topic, the study contributes to accounting education literature and identifies a set of four hierarchical categories that…

Although self-regulated learning (SRL) plays an important role in supporting online learning performance, the lack of student self-regulation skills poses a persistent problem to many educators. Recommender systems have the potential to promote SRL by delivering personalized feedback and tailoring learning strategies to meet individual learners'…

Despite the existence of many studies on language learning strategies (LLS), little scholarly work reports the LLS used by multilingual foreign language learners. To fill this empirical gap, the present qualitative case study investigates how polyglots employed their strategies over their path of learning multiple foreign languages. We collected…

This study explores the relationship between approaches to learning and self-regulation of learning. Approaches to learning characterise students' intentions and strategies regarding learning and studying, divided into deep and surface approaches together with organised studying. Self-regulation of learning is a process of monitoring and directing…

Informal learning in the workplace is a critical yet understudied aspect of employee development. While formal learning receives significant attention, informal learning strategies play a crucial role in knowledge acquisition and skill development. Recent research highlights various antecedents of informal learning, including psychological and…

Occupational therapy (OT) programs develop students' critical thinking, professional reasoning, and use of evidence-based practice through a core curriculum that includes academic reading. The existing body of research exploring the use of metacognitive strategies by OT students during academic reading is underdeveloped. Researchers conducted a…

Cover, copy, and compare (CCC) is a study strategy in which students cover their notes, attempt to copy them, and then compare for accuracy. We evaluated whether CCC could be used to establish equivalence classes with undergraduate students. A video training package and experimenter feedback were used to teach participants to engage in CCC with…

In this article we review the research on the flexible or adaptive use of solution strategies in school mathematics, with a focus on the most recent work in the field. After a short introduction, we provide an overview of the various ways in which strategy flexibility has been conceptualized and investigated in the research literature. Then we…

During a relatively short period of time, programming has been implemented in the national curriculum of the compulsory school in Sweden. Since 2018, programming is a new content in the technology subject and the research field has discussed some of the challenges teachers and students, who generally have little experiences of programming, face…

Peer assessment has traditionally represented a key tool to enhance active learning and critical thinking. However, the success of this approach is governed by different factors, which have been accentuated in recent years. The implementation of peer assessment is consequently a challenging task in the current context. This work investigates peer…

Knowledge maps are teaching tools that can promote deeply learning and avoid knowledge loss by helping students plan learning paths. Mining potential association rules of concepts from student exercise data was a common method to construct knowledge maps automatically. While manual conditions should be set to filter the association rules future to…

Learning mathematics in an online learning environment has unique challenges. Success in an online mathematics learning environment depends on a student's self-regulating ability. This systematic review provides the scholarly community with a synthesis of current self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies of students in the mathematics online…

Learning to derive subgoals reduces the gap between experts and students and makes students prepared for future problem solving. Researchers have explored subgoal-labeled instructional materials in traditional problem solving and within tutoring systems to help novices learn to subgoal. However, only a little research is found on problem-solving…

Research on the relationship between learning approaches and variables such as the perceived impact of some university activities is limited. The present study proposes a reduced Student Process Questionnaire (SPQ) to relate learning approaches to high-impact educational practices (HIEPs). The sample consisted of 893 first and final-year…
