The Relationships Between Academic Self-Efficacy,Computer Self-Efficacy,Prior Experience,and Satisfaction With Online Learning

This study investigated the relationships between academic self-efficacy (ASE), computer self-efficacy (CSE), prior experience, and satisfaction with online learning and explored how ASE, CSE, and satisfaction vary with age and gender. One hundred and three graduate students enrolled in purely online courses in January 2014 at a university in the midwestern United States participated in the survey. Scales with known reliability were used to measure ASE, CSE, and satisfaction. The study showed a significant positive correlation among all the variables except CSE and satisfaction. Regression analysis showed ASE to be most predictive of satisfaction with online learning. Females had a higher mean ASE than males, and participants aged thirty-five years and above had a higher mean CSE than younger participants.     

Online Learning Self-Efficacy in Students With and Without Online Learning Experience

A need was identified for an instrument to measure online learning self-efficacy, which encompassed the wide variety of tasks required of successful online students. The Online Learning Self-Efficacy Scale (OLSES) was designed to include tasks required of students enrolled in paced online courses at one university. In the present study, the twenty-two-item scale was completed by 338 postsecondary students with and without online learning experience. Separate principal components analyses were performed using data collected from participants who had and had not completed an online course. The results were similar for the two groups. A three-subscale structure was selected for use with all individuals. The three subscales represent items concerning (1) learning in the online environment, (2) time management, and (3) technology use. The reliability and validity of scores on the OLSES was explored through group comparisons and correlations. Suggestions for the use of the instrument with other populations are discussed.     

Social Presence and Student Satisfaction as Predictors of Online Enrollment Intent

This research examined the relations among social presence, satisfaction with learning experiences, and future online enrollment intent. The data for this cross-sectional study (N?=?280) were collected via an online questionnaire at a large university in the midwestern United States. Students taking online courses because of convenience were more likely to enroll in a future course, whereas those taking the course because it was required for their major were less likely. The curiosity and enjoy interaction motives were indicated as the primary motive for taking the online course by almost 20% of the participants. Hierarchical regression analyses demonstrated that both social presence and satisfaction with learning experiences were significant positive predictors of future online enrollment intent. Social presence explained the most variance in the regression equation.

网络开放课程之学习分析模式探微

如何对网络开放课程中的海量学习数据进行采集、存储、分析与表示,并利用分析结果做出决策、优化学习、提高绩效,日益成为亟待解决的问题。NMC地平线报告中介绍的学习分析技术有助于这一问题的解决。根据我国开放课程的现状与学习分析法的特征,开放课程环境下学习分析的研究对象与服务对象具有一定的特殊性。学习分析模式包括采集、存储、分析、表示与应用五个层级;建模时需充分考虑数据与利益相关者的特殊性。未来,学习分析模式的应用在理论基础、数据标准、算法模型、隐私与安全性等方面面临着挑战。     

Cross-Case Study of Self-Regulated Learning as a Series of Events

This exploratory cross-case study: (a) examined self-regulated learning (SRL) during 3 studying episodes, and (b) explored ways 8 students of varying proficiencies productively self-regulated their learning. Profiles of SRL were constructed by examining traces of studying activity, test performance, and student reflections. Profiles were used to: (a) identify individual strengths and weaknesses, (b) compare pairs of High, Low, Average, and Improving students, and (c) construct a model of SRL proficiency. SRL proficiency (skill, will, and adaptation) was not consistent with performance. This study illustrates the importance of collecting multiple measures of SRL as a series of events over time.

高校教师在线教学行为与学生在线学习满意度分析

采用问卷调查法,对高校教师在线教学行为及学生在线学习满意度进行了调查。结果表明:从学生角度来看,对操作类或实验类的资源、网络速度以及教师提供的客观教学条件等体验较差,认为在线教学效果比现场教学效果差。从教师角度来看,在教学评价与指导行为上受到一定限制,表现在示范艺体、实验等操作技能,论文写作训练等专业方面。突出表现在:在线教学缺乏充足的教学硬件条件保障,操作及实验类教辅资源紧缺,“新瓶装旧酒”的在线教学效果不好。为此,应加强政府主导,社会参与,共建良好的教学环境与条件;鼓励优质虚拟实验教学资源与平台的共建与共享;对混合式学习进行优化升级。     

Self-Directed Learning in Problem-Based Learning and its Relationships with Self-Regulated Learning

This study investigated the role of self-directed learning (SDL) in problem-based learning (PBL) and examined how SDL relates to self-regulated learning (SRL). First, it is explained how SDL is implemented in PBL environments. Similarities between SDL and SRL are highlighted. However, both concepts differ on important aspects. SDL includes an additional premise of giving students a broader role in the selection and evaluation of learning materials. SDL can encompass SRL, but the opposite does not hold. Further, a review of empirical studies on SDL and SRL in PBL was conducted. Results suggested that SDL and SRL are developmental processes, that the “self” aspect is crucial, and that PBL can foster SDL. It is concluded that conceptual clarity of what SDL entails and guidance for both teachers and students can help PBL to bring forth self-directed learners.     

Sense of Belonging and Self-Regulated Learning: Testing Achievement Goals as Mediators

We examined two aspects of college students' (N = 385) sense of belonging and its relations with three indicators of self-regulated learning. We also tested the mediating role of achievement goals in these relations. One aspect, sense of belonging to school, functioned as a significant predictor of self-reported metacognitive and academic time management strategies. In comparison, a second aspect, sense of belonging to peer groups, was a significant predictor of self-reported peer learning strategies. Findings from the mediation analyses indicated that sense of belonging to school was related with mastery goals, whereas sense of belonging to peer groups was related with performance goals. Further, mastery goals mediated the relations between sense of belonging to school and metacognitive and academic time management strategies.

动机的激发：家庭第一代大学生在线自我调节学习的潜在机制研究

基于疫情期间上海39所本科院校在校生线上提供的64949份有效问卷，本研究设计了《本科生在线自我调节学习量表》并进行信效度检验。回归统计结果表明：家庭第一代大学生在线自我调节学习的自评得分均值显著低于非家庭第一代大学生，在控制学习动机与就业焦虑这两个潜在影响机制之后，这种差距明显缩小乃至不再显著；学习动机的解释力度最大，尤其是“努力解决学习中的问题”与“喜欢阅读与专业相关的书籍”这两项与内在动机相关的行为表征；就业焦虑对本科生在线自我调节学习有显著的负面效应；加入交互项之后的回归结果支持学习动机这一潜在变量的调节作用，进而揭示未来对家庭第一代大学生在线学习的有效干预可侧重于内在动机的激发。

Using Self-Efficacy as a Construct for Evaluating Science and Mathematics Methods Courses

The focus of this study was elementary preservice teachers’ development as effective teachers of science and mathematics as influenced by their participation in elementary science and mathematics methods courses. Preservice teachers’ reports of factors that influenced their perception of their teaching abilities were analyzed according to Bandura’s (1994) 4 sources of efficacy: mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social persuasion, and stress reduction. This investigation allowed the researchers to evaluate the courses based on these sources. The analysis indicated all 4 sources influenced preservice teachers’ teaching self-efficacy beliefs, with mastery experiences considered the most influential. Embedded within discussions of mastery experiences were references to the other sources of efficacy, which suggest an interrelationship between mastery experiences and the other sources.
