Abstract

Promoting equity and sustainability through lifelong learning is crucial. Self-regulated learning (SRL) plays a vital role in this process, and digitization further enhances its impact. This study explores how adaptive learning technology (ALT) can aid university students in SRL with personalized support. It also delves into how students perceive and apply this feedback. Using hierarchical linear modeling and interviews, we studied SRL development over 9 weeks. Positive progress was observed in some SRL components, and metacognitive activity correlated with motivational and emotional states. Learners' perceptions of ALT feedback varied, influencing their learning behavior differently. Tailored feedback is essential for effective educational technology, respecting individual learning processes. This study contributes to the ongoing educational technology design discourse.
