The Effects Of Question Difficulty Order On Metacognitive Judgments During An Online Test, Wei-Chieh Fang May 2021

The Effects Of Question Difficulty Order On Metacognitive Judgments During An Online Test, Wei-Chieh Fang

Arts & Sciences Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Three experiments were conducted to examine the effects of question difficulty order on people’s judgments of test performance and test experiences. Building on the finding that ordering questions from easy to hard often leads to overconfidence (i.e., a retrospective bias), the study aimed to examine the generality and robustness of this effect by having participants from a diverse population take an online test and then make a post-test judgement of their performance. In addition to using the same ascending and descending order of difficulty as prior research, the study also explored how the U-shaped order (e.g., easy-hard-easy) and report option …


Middle School Students' Reported Self-Regulation Strategies In Completing Online Mathematics Homework, Pepper Erlinger May 2021

Middle School Students' Reported Self-Regulation Strategies In Completing Online Mathematics Homework, Pepper Erlinger

Boise State University Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive case study is to benefit our understanding of the potential of online homework as it relates to developing and supporting students’ self-regulated learning (SRL). This descriptive case study explores the use of self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies reported by students in the context of completing online mathematics homework (OHW). Eighth-grade students (10 total) from a traditional middle school were interviewed using a validated data collection instrument, the Self-Regulated Learning Interview Schedule or SRLIS (Zimmerman & Martinez-Pons, 1986, 1988). Students’ open-ended responses were interpreted using a framework of self-regulation theory and coded using 14 self-regulation strategies …

La Reflexión Metalingüística: Una Estrategia Metacognitiva Para El Desarrollo De La Habilidad De Escritura En El Aprendizaje De Inglés Como Le Con Niños De Cuarto De Primaria Del Colegio Alfonso López Pumarejo De Bogotá, Cristhian Miguel Lozano, Diego Javier Prada

Maestría en Didáctica de las Lenguas

La sociedad contemporánea ha hecho que los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje de lengua extranjera (LE) evolucionen vertiginosamente y los ha impulsado a la innovación metodológica en el contexto educativo para responder a dinámicas sociales que demandan la formación de individuos capaces de comunicarse en uno o más lenguas diferentes a su lengua materna (LM). Los nuevos enfoques de enseñanza-aprendizaje de LE (enfoque comunicativo, por ejemplo) parecen haber desplazado la escritura hacia un segundo plano y por ello esta investigación tiene como objetivo general describir los aportes de la aplicación de una estrategia metacognitiva (reflexión metalingüística) en el desarrollo de la habilidad …
