Cognitive And Metacognitive Strategies

In college introductory science courses, students are challenged with mastering large amounts of disciplinary content while developing as autonomous and effective learners. Self-regulated learning (SRL) is the process of setting learning goals, monitoring progress toward them, and applying appropriate study strategies. SRL characterizes successful, “expert” learners, and develops with time and practice. In a large, undergraduate introductory biology course, we investigated: 1) what SRL strategies students reported using the most when studying for exams, 2) which strategies were associated with higher achievement and with grade improvement on exams, and 3) what study approaches students proposed to use for future exams. Higher-achieving students, and students whose exam grades improved in the first half of the semester, reported using specific cognitive and metacognitive strategies significantly more frequently than their lower-achieving peers. Lower-achieving students more frequently reported that they did not implement their planned strategies or, if they did, still did not improve their outcomes. These results suggest that many students entering introductory biology have limited knowledge of SRL strategies and/or limited ability to implement them, which can impact their achievement. Course-specific interventions that promote SRL development should be considered as integral pedagogical tools, aimed at fostering development of students’ lifelong learning skills.

Support Students

Providing feedback to students as they learn to integrate individual concepts into complex systems is an important way to help them to develop robust understanding, but it is challenging in large, undergraduate classes for instructors to provide feedback that is frequent and directed enough to help individual students. Various scaffolds can be used to help students engage in self-regulated learning and generate internal feedback to improve their learning. This study examined the use of enhanced answer keys with added reflection questions and instruction as scaffolds for engaging undergraduate students in self-regulated learning within an introductory biology course. Study findings show that both the enhanced answer keys and reflection questions helped students to engage in metacognition and develop greater understanding of biological concepts. Further, students who received additional instruction on the use of the scaffolds changed how they used them and, by the end of the semester, were using the scaffolds in significantly different ways and showed significantly higher learning gains than students who did not receive the instruction. These findings provide evidence for the benefit of designing scaffolds within biology courses that will support students in engaging in metacognition and enhancing their understanding of biological concepts.

Cluster Random Sampling

This study aimed to investigate the impact of flipped learning 3.0 and self-regulated learning on eleventh grade students’ speaking performance in SMA N 1 Sukasada. This study was quasi-experimental research. Forty-seven of eleventh grade students were the sample of this study that were divided into two groups by using cluster random sampling, namely experimental and control groups. The data were collected through a survey and post-test. The data were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. The result showed that flipped learning 3.0 gave a significant difference on students’ speaking performance. Meanwhile, self-regulated learning did not give any significant differences on students’ speaking performance between those who had high and low self-regulated learning Moreover, there was no interaction effect between flipped learning 3.0 and self-regulated learning. Through the implementation of flipped learning 3.0 and self-regulated learning, the students were stimulated to learn independently. Thus, it creates their understanding and be active in the learning.

Speaking Performance

This study aimed to investigate the simple effect and interaction effect of flipped learning 3.0 (FL 3.0) and self-regulated learning (SRL) on students speaking performance in SMAN 1 Sukasada. This study was quasi-experimental research. Fifty-three tenth-grade students were the sample of this study that were divided into two groups, namely experimental and control groups. The data were collected through a post-test and survey. The data were analyzed using a two-way ANOVA. The result showed that flipped learning 3.0 did not give a significant difference on students’ speaking performance, but the effect size showed a medium effect. On the other hand, SRL gave a significant difference on students’ speaking performance between those who have high and low SRL. There was no interaction effect between FL 3.0 and SRL. Through the implementation of FL 3.0 and SRL, the students were stimulated to learn independently which can create their understanding and more active.

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is especially important in blended/flipped learning environments. This study explored and described the use of SRL in a specific language learning context. It investigated what problems Chinese-as-a-foreign-language learners (CFL) had with their Chinese language learning, whether and how they solved the problems, what SRL strategies they adopted, and what support they needed to gain the maximum benefits from the blended/flipped learning environment. Nineteen CFL learners who were in their second semester studying Chinese in a blended/flipped environment participated in the descriptive study. Self-reported data were collected using WeChat in an individualized exchange format, which was designed to help with data richness, completeness, and accuracy. The results show that students had different problems in learning, and they would benefit if they had the opportunity to learn and incorporate SRL strategies. The areas in which they needed the most help were knowing how to set a goal, how to create a plan to achieve the goal, and how to use different strategies to manage their learning and manage their time. Implications for teaching are also discussed in this study.
