Session Submission Summary

Innovations in Researching Regulation of Learning in Solo and Collaborative Tasks

Fri, April 13, 12:00 to 1:30pm, Sheraton Wall Centre, Floor: Third Level, South Pavilion Ballroom B

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

Successful learners self-regulate their learning by making plans, evaluating progress, and adapting learning when needed. Emergent perspectives contend regulation is rarely solitary and emphasize the importance of skills and strategies for regulating one’s own learning (self-regulation), regulating with others (co-regulation) and regulating together (socially shared regulation). Because this social perspective introduces new challenges for researching regulation, this symposium brings together teams of researchers who have grappled with individual and social aspects of regulation using a range of innovative research approaches. Collectively, papers: (a) compare methodologies and analytical techniques for examining regulation in authentic tasks; (b) introduce salient challenges in researching individual and social aspects in regulation of learning, and (c) advance future research directions.
