Data Mining and Self-Regulated Learning: Aligning Constructs With Measurement

Mon, April 20, 4:05 to 5:35pm, Virtual Room

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The question of how students strategically regulate their learning has been a source of academic intrigue for decades. Although self-regulated learning (SRL) is conceptualized as a dynamic interaction between individual and contextual processes unfolding over the course of learning or problem-solving activities, SRL research relies mainly on self-report data. As a result, there are increasing calls to leverage data mining techniques, including sequential and differential pattern mining and machine learning algorithms, to measure SRL and predict achievement. This symposium explores the utility of data mining techniques for tracing SRL processes in individual or team settings, with implications for researchers and organizational stakeholders.
