The authors examined the effectiveness of self-regulated learning (SRL) training in facilitating college students' with hypermedia. Undergraduate students (N = 131) were randomly assigned to either a condition or control and used hypermedia environment learn about circulatory system. Students SRL group given 30-min session on use specific, empirically based variables designed foster their conceptual understanding; received no training. Pretest, posttest, verbal protocol data collected from...
Research shows that learners of all ages have difficulties deploying key cognitive and metacognitive self-regulatory skills during learning about complex challenging topics when using open-ended environments such as hypermedia. This article provides an overview the research my students I conducted on how use self-regulated can foster enhance students' science In this article, term tool is used deliberately to highlight (a) role processes by (b) computer in prompting, supporting, modeling...
A significant proportion of American high school students struggle with reading comprehension. Theoretical models comprehension might help researchers understand these difficulties, because they can point to variables that make the largest contributions On basis an extensive review literature, we created a new model comprehension, direct and inferential mediation (DIME) model. The hypothesizes relationships among background knowledge, inferences, strategies, vocabulary, word addresses...
AbstractEngagement is one of the most widely misused and overgeneralized constructs found in educational, learning, instructional, psychological sciences. The articles this special issue represent a wide range traditions highlight several key conceptual, theoretical, methodological, analytical issues related to defining measuring engagement. All approaches exemplified by contributors show different ways conceptualizing engagement demonstrate strengths weaknesses each method significantly...

Self-regulated learning (SRL) with hypermedia environments involves a complex cycle of temporally unfolding cognitive and metacognitive processes that impact students’ learning. We present several methodological issues related to treating SRL as an event strengths challenges using online trace methodologies detect, trace, model, foster processes. first describe scenario illustrating the nature during hypermedia. provide our theoretically driven assumptions regarding use methodologies,...
Learning sciences are embracing the significant role technologies can play to better detect, diagnose, and act upon self-regulated learning (SRL). The field of SRL is challenged with measurement processes advance our understanding how multimodal data unobtrusively capture learners' cognitive, metacognitive, affective, motivational states over time, tasks, domains, contexts. This paper introduces a processes, data, analysis (SMA) grid maps joint individual research authors (63 papers) last...
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, such as large language models (LLMs), generate natural and other types of content to perform a wide range tasks. This represents significant technological advancement that poses opportunities challenges educational research practice. commentary brings together contributions from nine experts working in the intersection learning technology presents critical reflections on opportunities, challenges, implications related GenAI technologies...
This study examines the role of self-regulated learning (SRL) in facilitating students' shifts to more sophisticated mental models circulatory system as indicated by both performance and process data. We began with Winne colleagues' information processing model SRL (Winne, 2001; & Hadwin, 1998) used it examine how students regulated their own when using a hypermedia environment learn about system. Undergraduate ( N = 24) were trained use Pretest, posttest, verbal protocol data collected...
A quantitative research synthesis (meta-analysis) was conducted on the literature concerning effects of feedback learning from computer-based instruction (CBI). Despite widespread acceptance in computerized instruction, empirical support for particular types information has been inconsistent and contradictory. Effect size calculations twenty-two studies involving administration immediate achievement posttests resulted a weighted mean effect .80. Also, .35 obtained nine delayed posttest...
