College Setting

This study investigated the relationships between self-efficacy and self-regulated learning strategies of English Language Learners (ELL) in a college setting from a social cognitive perspective. Participants in this study were one hundred seventeen ELL college students who enrolled in an English language course at a Midwestern university. The results of simple linear regression analysis showed that ELL college students’ self-efficacy significantly predicted their use of self-regulated learning strategies. In addition, the results of a one-way ANOVA indicated a statistically significant difference in the use of self-regulated learning strategies between ELL college students who had high self-efficacy and those who had low self-efficacy. Based on study results, implications and future research directions are discussed.

This paper addresses the issue of how to assess learners’ engagement with activities designed to develop self-regulatory learning strategies in the context of foreign language teaching and learning. The argument is that, if the aim of these activities is the development of learners’ self-regulation, then the assessment practices used must also reflect this orientation. The problem herein is that traditional assessment practices are typically normative in nature, endorsing understandings of intelligence as fixed and failure as unacceptable. Using such approaches to assess learner engagement with self-regulated learning activities will undermine efforts to promote learner development, and may demotivate learners. This paper will discuss these issues through a critical reflection on assessment practices used to evaluate EFL learners’ engagement with an assessable homework activity designed to develop their self-regulatory strategies. It is argued that learning-oriented assessment principles and practices are most suited to the evaluation of self-regulated learning in EFL. Potential issues related to the application of learning-oriented assessment in EFL contexts are also discussed.

Regulated Learning

This study examines the relationships between self-efficacy, task value, and the use of self-regulated learning strategies by massive open online course (MOOC) learners from a social cognitive perspective. A total of 184 participants who enrolled in two MOOCs completed surveys. The results of Pearson’s correlation analysis show a positive correlation between self-efficacy and the use of self-regulated learning strategies, as well as a positive correlation between task value and the use of self-regulated learning strategies. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis show that self-efficacy and task value are significant predictors of the use of self-regulated learning strategies. There was a statistically significant difference in the use of self-regulated learning strategies between learners who possessed high self-efficacy and those who possessed low self-efficacy. In addition, learners who had high task value showed statistically significant higher average self-regulated learning scores than those who had low task value. Implications and future research directions are discussed based on the findings.

Regulated Learning

Self-regulated learning is an active participation in a learning process, which comprises cognitive, metacognitive and behavioural processes, and involves learning strategies and peer learning. In the basis of self-regulation is motivation, which in school settings can be specified as test anxiety, selfefficacy, and intrinsic and extrinsic value. The aim of this research was to verify the differences between male and female participants as well as between fifth- and seventh-grade students, regarding intrinsic and extrinsic value, self-efficacy, test anxiety, learning strategies and peer learning. Participants were fifth- and seventh-grade students (N = 172) from two elementary schools. No differences were found between male and female participants in intrinsic and extrinsic value, self-efficacy, learning strategies and peer learning. However, statistically significant differences in the all of the above-mentioned variables were found between younger and older students. Weaker motivation and self-regulated learning, found among older students, confirmed previous findings in this field. Results are discussed within the framework of personality development and selfdetermination theory which describe academic motivation and self-regulated learning.

AbstractConsiderable effort has been invested in innovative learning practices in English Foreign Language courses (EFL) in universities. Flipped classroom model transforms passive listeners into active learners in school and home activities pace. Flipped classroom model and the foreign language teaching methods are student-centred learning environments in which students should have a certain level of self-regulated learning skills. The study suggest a model for flipped classroom implementations with regard to self-regulated learning strategies in order to keep students more active in the EFL courses. Students were allowed to apply goal setting and planning, rehearsing, help seeking, monitoring, testing, time management, organising, regulating and note taking strategies within the model in online and face to face sessions. We hope the suggested model can contribute to improve listening, reading, writing and speaking skills of students in EFL courses.
