Mon, April 8, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Floor: 200 Level, Room 205D

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The ability to effectively manage one’s own learning has become an important ‘survival tool’ in today’s complex world (Bjork, Dunlosky & Kornell, 2013). In view of the importance of SRL, it is of concern that that many teachers do not know how to create learning environments to promote students’ self-regulation. In this session we bring together experts from different parts of the world to share and discuss their empirical findings and theoretical perspectives on pre-service and practicing teachers’ beliefs and practices with respect to self-regulated learning and on how to improve these beliefs and practices.
