Rice, Mary F.; Carter, Richard Allen, Jr. – Online Learning, 2016
Students with disabilities represent a growing number of learners receiving education in K-12 fully online learning programs. They are, unfortunately, also a large segment of the online learning population who are not experiencing success in these environments. In response, scholars have recommended increasing instruction in self-regulation skills…

von Stulpnagel, Rul; Steffens, Melanie C. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, 2012
When driving a vehicle, either the driver or a passenger (henceforth: backseat driver) may be responsible for navigation. Research on active navigation, primarily addressed in virtual environments, suggests that controlling navigation is more central for spatial learning than controlling movement. To test this assumption in a real-world scenario,…
