Literature on teacher learning has shown links between being a self-regulated learner, reflecting effectively on one’s own practice, and being described as an “adaptive expert”. For instance, the metacognitive skills needed for effective reflection on teaching practice are seen as critically important to developing adaptive expertise in the context of the highly complex classroom environment. Similarly, self-regulated learning is often defined, at least in part, in terms of using metacognitive skill to adapt one’s approach to complex learning situations or problems. Although there is rich literature on reflective practice in teacher education, less is known about measuring teachers’ self-regulated learning or the relationship between self-regulated learning and teacher reflections. This research examines reflective practice and self-regulated learning through pre-service teachers’ written reflections. The study makes a novel adaptation of a rubric designed to evaluate teacher education candidates’ reflections to measure self-regulated learning. Findings suggest that the rubric could also be useful in understanding the self-regulated practices of teacher education candidates.

As education is remodelled to online solutions, instructors and students are required to adapt their teaching and learning through different forms of monitoring, regulation and assessment. This remodelling requires conceptual and philosophical reflection relating to stakeholder roles and the relationship between learners and teaching materials within digital learning spaces. With a sample of 276 student participants, this article reports from a Japanese university which shifted all regular face-to-face lectures online at short notice during 2020. Self-regulated learning is drawn from to test a primary thesis that online self-regulated learning impacts achievement. It was hypothesized that metacognitive skills provide the foundation for online self-regulated learning but are not able to exert a direct effect on achievement as such skills must be mediated through applied behavioral action. Three criterion models indicated limited achievement effect sizes between 11.1% and 12.6%. The outcomes are discussed in relation to online learning and pedagogies relevant to distance education in the era of change.

The latest learning in the 21st century requires learners to master various competencies to support their learning process and achieve the expected learning goals. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-regulated learning and learning motivation with metacognitive skills. The research was conducted in May 2020 at SMAN 1 of Tasikmalaya. The research used a quantitative approach to explore the correlation among variables observed involving a population of 177 students of class XI MIPA 1- XI MIPA 5 in academic year 2019/2020. The samples were 43 students selected using simple random sampling technique. Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI) questionnaire adapted from Schraw & Dennison and Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) adapted from Pintrich & De Groot were used to collect the data. MAI is used to measure metacognitive skills, while MSLQ is used to measure self-regulated learning and learning motivation. MLSQ is a validated isntrumen, while MAI is tested for validity first and the results are valid. The analysis technique used was multiple linear regression tests. The results show that the correlation coefficient (R) was 0.747 and the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.558. The contribution of self-regulated learning and learning motivation to metacognitive skills amounted to 55.8%.

Background: We aimed to investigate the relationship among mobile phone dependence, self-efficacy for self-regulated learning, time management disposition, and academic procrastination in Chinese students majoring in physical education. In addition, we explored the mediating roles of self-efficacy for self-regulated learning and time management disposition in the relationship between mobile phone dependence and academic procrastination. Methods: We adopted a random sampling method to identify 324 physical education majors at five universities in Shaanxi Province, China in 2020. Data were analyzed via exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis, structural equation model analysis, and path analysis. Results: Mobile phone dependence had significant positive effects on academic procrastination (P<0.001) and self-efficacy for self-regulated learning (P<0.05) but a significant negative effect on time management disposition (P<0.001). Self-efficacy for self-regulated learning had a significant positive effect on academic procrastination (P<0.001), while time management disposition had a significant negative effect on academic procrastination (P<0.01). Notably, self-efficacy for self-regulated learning and time management disposition mediated the relationship between mobile phone dependence and academic procrastination (P<0.05). Conclusion: In addition to its direct effect on academic procrastination, mobile phone dependence exerts an indirect effect via time management disposition and self-regulated learning efficacy. Reducing students’ dependence on mobile phones is necessary for attenuating academic procrastination on university campuses. Thus, universities should aim to restrict the use of mobile phones in the classroom, actively cultivate students’ confidence in their self-regulated learning ability, and educate them regarding appropriate time values.

This study examines the relationship between self-regulated learning strategies and students' academic performance in English courses. The research method is descriptive-correlational. The statistical population includes all students of Azad University, Gorgan branch in the period 2020-2021. convenience sampling based on the Morgan table is used to select 384 people. The data collection tool is Zimmerman and Martinez-Pons Self-Regulated Learning Interview Schedule (1998), and for academic performance, the average grade in English course in two semesters was taken into account. Pearson correlation analyzes the data. The results show a significant relationship between self-regulated learning strategies and the academic performance of English course students. Keywords: education, academic performance, learning strategy

<p>The present study explored pre-service teachers’ self-regulated learning strategy<br />and motivation in EFL academic writing. A further aim of the study is to<br />investigate the relationship between their self-regulated learning strategy and<br />motivation as well as to explore the revision behaviors in English academic<br />writing. A questionnaire was administered to 56 pre-service teachers (PST)<br />majoring English language education. The questionnaire covered 16 items of<br />questions regarding self-regulated learning strategy comprising environmental<br />process, behavioral process, and personal process, as well as motivation. PSTs’<br />revisions of academic writing were also assessed using writing revision categories<br />to identify their revision behaviors. Descriptive analyses indicated that<br />participants were moderate to high in their self-regulated learning strategy and<br />motivation toward their writing activities. Furthermore, the result showed that<br />despite the fact that self-regulated learning strategy in the aspect of environmental<br />strategy and personal strategy did not significantly correlate with motivation,<br />behavioral strategy significantly correlated with motivation. In addition to this,<br />among the revision categories, the aspects of organization, citation, mechanics,<br />language use, and references were the most common categories of revisions,<br />while content and format were the least ones. The study might have implication<br />on the PST’s EFL academic writing instruction.<br />Keywords: self-regulated learning strategy, motivation, revision, EFL academic<br />writing</p>

Proponents of teacher education preparation advocate that in order for new teachers to be effective in their practice they must acquire skills as reflective practitioners, specifically as it relates to lesson designing and instruction and understanding individual student needs. This study demonstrates the use of edTPA reflective commentary to move teacher education candidates from a superficial professional reflection to becoming a reflective practitioner with an in-depth understanding of reflective practice and evidence-based instruction.
