A Conceptual Framework for Research on Self-Regulated Learning

  • Chapter
Self-Regulated Learning in Technology Enhanced Learning Environments

Part of the book series: Technology Enhanced Learning ((TEL,volume 5))

Abstract

In the international community of educational researchers, self-regulated learning has become an important topic in educational and psychological research over the last three decades. One reason for this is that it has been found that the extent to which learners are capable of regulating their own learning markedly enhances their learning outcomes.
