We developed a lesson where students construct a qualitative representation to learn how clock genes are regulated. Qualitative representations provide a non-numerical description of system behavior, focusing on causal relation-ships and system states. They align with human reasoning about system dy-namics …

Acknowledging the knowledge gaps and novel paradigms outlined above within both coaching research and practice, the PhD research aims to investigate how need-supportive coaching—rooted in Self-Determination Theory (SDT)—effectively fulfils the satisfaction of beginning teachers’ basic psychological needs …

Introduction: Self-regulated learning (SRL) has traditionally been associated with study success in higher education. In contrast, study success is still rarely associated with executive functions (EF), while it is known from neuropsychological practice that EF can influence overall functioning and performance. …

Presenting novices with examples and problems is an effective and efficient way to acquire new problem-solving skills. Nowadays, examples and problems are increasingly presented in computer-based learning environments, in which learners often have to self-regulate their learning (i.e., choose what type …

Problem-solving tasks form an important part of (higher education) curricula, especially in STEM-domains. For learners with little or no prior knowledge (novices), an effective way to learn new problem-solving tasks is by studying examples. These can be written out step-by-step solution procedures of …

Nowadays, students often practice problem-solving skills in online learning environments with the help of examples and problems. This requires them to self-regulate their learning. It is questionable how novices self-regulate their learning from examples and problems and whether they need support. The …

Metacognition comprises both the ability to be aware of one’s cognitive processes (metacognitive knowledge) and to regulate them (metacognitive control). Research in educational sciences has amassed a large body of evidence on the importance of metacognition in learning and academic achievement. More …

Problem-solving tasks form the backbone of STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) curricula. Yet, how to improve self-monitoring and self-regulation when learning to solve problems has received relatively little attention in the self-regulated learning literature (as compared with, …

In de huidige studie werden verschillen onderzocht tussen leerkrachten in het basisonderwijs die werden geclassificeerd als goed presterend in hun implementatie van coöperatief leren (CL) in hun klas en leerkrachten die minder succesvol waren in het implementeren van coöperatief leren. De niveaus van …
