Abstract Distance Learning (DL) has been shown to be adequate to the current field of Training, Development and Education (TD&E), which constantly undergoes transformations resulting from technological innovations. Students’ characteristics is one of the factors responsible for abandoning DL programs. This study aimed to relate the possibility of evasion of a DL course and the variables belonging to the student’s characteristics (Learning Strategies and Styles). A total of 135 students enrolled in a distance learning degree responded virtually to the instruments of Learning Strategies and Styles. The results showed that most participants who would not abandon the course used the Behavioral and Self-Regulated Learning Strategies and presented the Learning Style related to the Study Environment. The data obtained contribute to future planning of TD&E programs, which should consider the clientele’s characteristics.

The Relationship

<p>Flexibility in learning provides a student room for volitional control and an array of strategies and encourages persistence in the face of difficulties. Autonomy in and control over one’s learning process can be seen as a condition for self-regulated learning. There are a number of categories and dimensions for flexible learning; following professional publications, time, location, lesson content, pedagogy method, learning style, organization, and course requirements are all elements to consider. Using these categories and the dimensions of flexible learning, we developed and validated a questionnaire for an open and distance learning setting. This article reports on the results from a study investigating the relationship between flexible learning and self-regulated learning strategies. The results show the positive effects of flexible learning and its three factors, time management, teacher contact, and content, on self-regulated learning strategies (cognitive, metacognitive, and resource-based). Groups that have high flexibility in learning indicate that they use more learning strategies than groups with low flexibility.</p>

Regulated Learning

We explored the predictive effect of goal-oriented learning strategies on Chinese adult students' academic performance in distance learning, using self-regulated learning as the underpinning theory. The relationship was analyzed using structural equation modeling, and the results indicated that self-regulation strategies and goal orientation were positively related to academic achievement. We also found a significant and positive indirect relationship of mastery goal orientation and academic performance through self-regulated learning strategies. Further, the performance-approach goal orientation had a positive indirect influence on academic performance, with the effort-regulation strategy fully mediating this relationship. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

Este artigo objetiva averiguar, com base em uma revisão sistemática de literatura, o investimento em estratégias de ensino e aprendizagem autorregulada em cursos de Licenciatura em Geografia. Os dados foram coletados nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online, Red de Revistas Cientificas de America Latina y el Caribe, España y Portugal e na Plataforma Sucupira da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior em periódicos da Geografia com classificação Qualis A1, A2 e B1 dos últimos cinco anos. A busca pelos trabalhos teve como resultado o total de 154 artigos. Destes, apenas 25 tratavam especificamente da formação inicial de professores e, dentre estes, apenas 8 atendiam às demandas da pesquisa. Os resultados revelaram a necessidade de mais investimento em programas de intervenção em estratégias de aprendizagem e a necessidade de pesquisas futuras que disseminem na Geografia a temática da autorregulação.
