Book Self Regulated Learning and Academic Achievement

Download or read book Self Regulated Learning and Academic Achievement written by Barry J. Zimmerman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together internationally known researchers representing different theoretical perspectives on students' self-regulation of learning. Diverse theories on how students become self-regulated learners are compared in terms of their conceptual origins, scientific form, research productivity, and pedagogical effectiveness. This is the only comprehensive comparison of diverse classical theories of self-regulated learning in print. The first edition of this text, published in 1989, presented descriptions of such differing perspectives as operant, phenomenological, social learning, volitional, Vygotskian, and constructivist theories. In this new edition, the same prominent editors and authors reassess these classic models in light of a decade of very productive research. In addition, an information processing perspective is included, reflecting its growing prominence. Self-regulation models have proven especially appealing to teachers, coaches, and tutors looking for specific recommendations regarding how students activate, alter, and sustain their learning practices. Techniques for enhancing these processes have been studied with considerable success in tutoring sessions, computer learning programs, coaching sessions, and self-directed practice sessions. The results of these applications are discussed in this new edition. The introductory chapter presents a historical overview of research and a theoretical framework for comparing and contrasting the theories described in the following chapters, all of which follow a common organizational format. This parallel format enables the book to function like an authored textbook rather than a typical edited volume. The final chapter offers an historical assessment of changes in theory and trends for future research. This volume is especially relevant for students and professionals in educational psychology, school psychology, guidance and counseling, developmental psychology, child and family development, as well as for students in general teacher education.

Book Motivation and Learning Strategies for College Success

Download or read book Motivation and Learning Strategies for College Success written by Myron H. Dembo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This popular text combines theory, research, and applications to teach college students how to become more self-regulated learners. Study skills are treated as a serious academic course of study. Students learn about human motivation and learning as they improve their study skills. The focus is on relevant information and features designed to help students to identify the components of academic learning that contribute to high achievement, to master and practice effective learning and study strategies, and then to complete self-regulation studies whereby they are taught a process for improving their academic behavior. A framework organized around six components related to academic success (motivation, methods of learning, time management, control of the physical and social environment, and monitoring performance) makes it easy for students to understand what they need to do to become more successful in the classroom. Pedagogical Features include Exercises; Follow-Up Activities; Student Reflections; Chapter-end Reviews ; Key Point; and a Glossary. New in the Fourth Edition: More emphasis on research findings; expanded discussion of motivation ; more emphasis on the impact of students' use of social networking and technology; research about neuroscience in relationship to motivation and learning; new exercises, including web-based activities; Companion Website, including an Instructor's Manual

Book Self regulation of Learning and Performance

Download or read book Self regulation of Learning and Performance written by Dale H. Schunk and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-06 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, educators have become increasingly concerned with students' attempts to manage their own learning and achievement efforts through activities that influence the instigation, direction and persistence of those efforts. In 1989, Zimmerman and Schunk edited the first book devoted to this topic. They assembled key theorists offering a range of perspectives on how students self-regulate their academic functioning. One purpose of that volume was to provide theoretical direction to ongoing as well as nascent efforts to explore academic self-regulatory processes. Since that date, there has been an exponential surge in research. This second volume on academic self-regulation offers the fruits of the first generation of research. It also addresses a number of key issues that have arisen since then such as how self-regulation differs from such related constructs as motivation and metacognition, and whether students can be taught self-regulatory skills. The contributors reveal an interesting, uplifting, and at times, disturbing picture of how students grapple with the day-to-day problems of achieving in circumstances with inherent limitations and obstacles. This volume provides insight into the source of students' capabilities to surmount adversities -- the origins of their self-initiated processes designed to improve learning, motivation, and achievement. The text is organized on the basis of a conceptual framework that analyzes academic self-regulation into four major dimensions. That model is presented in the first chapter, and key processes that influence each of these dimensions are discussed by prominent researchers in the chapters that follow. Because each chapter is written to follow a common format, this work provides a level of continuity and parsimony normally found only in authored textbooks.

Book Creating Self Regulated Learners

Download or read book Creating Self Regulated Learners written by Linda B. Nilson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of our students neither know how learning works nor what they have to do to ensure it, to the detriment both of their studies and their development as lifelong learners.The point of departure for this book is the literature on self-regulated learning that tells us that deep, lasting, independent learning requires learners to bring into play a range of cognitive skills, affective attitudes, and even physical activities – about which most students are wholly unaware; and that self-regulation, which has little to do with measured intelligence, can be developed by just about anyone and is a fundamental prerequisite of academic success.Linda Nilson provides the theoretical background to student self-regulation,the evidence that it enhances achievement, and the strategies to help students develop it. She presents an array of tested activities and assignments through which students can progressively reflect on, monitor and improve their learning skills; describes how they can be integrated with different course components and on various schedules; and elucidates how to intentionally and seamlessly incorporate them into course design to effectively meet disciplinary and student development objectives. Recognizing that most faculty are unfamiliar with these strategies, she also recommends how to prepare for introducing them into the classroom and adding more as instructors become more confident using them.The book concludes with descriptions of courses from different fields to offer models and ideas for implementation. At a time of so much concern about what our students are learning in college and how well prepared they are for the challenges of tomorrow’s economy and society, self-regulated learning provides a reassuring solution, particularly as studies indicate that struggling students benefit the most from practicing it.

Book Investigating Self efficacy and Self regulated Learning as Predictors of Academic Success in College Online Courses

Download or read book Investigating Self efficacy and Self regulated Learning as Predictors of Academic Success in College Online Courses written by Kellie Lynn Templeman and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Online education has been firmly established as a recognized instructional delivery format. From its inception, the participation in online courses has continued to grow exponentially as many brick and mortar higher educational institutions have expanded their online programs. As students are autonomous and independent learners within these environments, it is important to investigate their motivation and self-regulation as these variables affect their academic success. Substantial research has demonstrated self-efficacy and academic success are related, but less is known about the role of self-regulation in relation to self-efficacy and academic outcomes in online classrooms. This study explored how self-efficacy and selfregulation impact academic outcome in fully online courses. Subjects were 563 undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in asynchronous online classes at the University of Georgia. Students responded to surveys on motivational beliefs, self-efficacy and metacognitive selfregulation subscales via the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) and an additional survey that probed for task value and self-efficacy in an online environment. Academic outcome was measured by the students’ final end of course grades. Contrary to expectations, results indicated none of the demographic or subscale measures significantly correlated to academic outcome. Thus, the proposed mediation model of self-efficacy leading to self-regulation, which then impacts academic outcome was not able to be performed due to lack of fit. The study included high achieving students and a narrow margin of academic outcomes, which made teasing out self-efficacy and self-regulation effects amongst the sample difficult. While self-regulation has been identified as an important factor in student success in online courses throughout the literature, the findings of this study reflect a weak relationship between self-regulation learning and academic outcome in a sample of high achievers.

Book Self Regulated Learning  Theory and Application  Penerbit USM

Download or read book Self Regulated Learning Theory and Application Penerbit USM written by Melissa Ng. Lee Yen Abdullah and published by Penerbit USM. This book was released on with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-regulated learning is recognized as one of the most essential skills that students should possess in this information age. Nevertheless, most students are accustomed to the conventional teacher-centered way of learning, thus, they are not competent at self-regulated learning. A Self-Management Tool was developed to guide and enhance students' usage of self-regulated learning strategies. The tool comprises three components; Information-Management Tool, Personal-Management Tool and a Teacher's Manual. A quasi-experimental study was conducted to test its effectiveness and the details of this empirical research were documented in this monograph. The monograph is divided into six chapters, with detailed descriptions on the research methodology. The Self-Management Tool was found to be effective in improving students' self-regulated learning. The findings have significant research and educational implications. Recommendations for future research are included in the final chapter of the monograph.
