Session 2 - Self-Regulated Learning
Some key characteristics of SRL are:
Active process
Requires agency
Intentional effort from the learner's side to control their emotions, motivation, metacognition as they go forward with a task
What is a model?
A coherent framework for us to talk about these theories
-> Zimmerman's triadic model
TODO: Write simple examples based on the triadic model e.g a learner does a task and they realize they have very little time left
Went a bit further than Zimmerman
Instead of the performance phase, he has Monitoring and Control phases
He also added areas of regulation e.g cognition, motivation/affect, behavior, context
We don't only see phases and targets of regulation, we see more deeply what are the processes / little mechanism that happen within each phase / guide each phase
TODO: Write an example. A learner sits down to work on a task, what happens?
Products are a core part of the COPES model
Products = Outcomes of each stage
All SRL models have common grounds, they describe the same phenomena
The common ground is that all SRL models emphasize:
the learner's agency
goal orientation
cyclicity - goes from forethought (feedback loop)
situatedness - we are not learning in a vaccum, others and technology are affecting our learning processes
RESEARCH IN CELLA
Measuring and understanding secondary edu students SRL
trace data = when students are wrting, all that they do is captured by the backend of the AI environment e.g mouse clicks etc, the metadata is then put to the traces and patterns are recognised - so then feedback can be given
most SRL researchers in CELLA use the COPES model
GROUP TASK
Watch a video where a girl describes how she studies
Write down what you notice in terms of SRL
Goal Orientation: Get the best grades that you can
Techniques - Strategies: Write down something to memorize - Fit one chapter in one piece of paper
Reflection - adaptation
Part 2 - Group 2: Cognition and Behavior (Based on the video)
The challenge here was to distinguish between her cognitive and metacognitive tasks
-> Study for many hours
-> Focus - be disciplined in your studying
-> Don't be lazy
-> Writing down only the things she will not remember easily
-> Writing the paper over and over in the whiteboard
-> Be active physically - have a fitness routine
-> Eat snacks
-> Go through the lectures again with her notes
Key takeaway:
You can be a good SRL Learner but context matters: You might not activate those mechanisms at every context
