Self Regulated Learning(S.R.L)
Research methodology and results .
Dr. Shoshi Reiter
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 33
Why change?
Schools vision is to preparer students for their best performance
at present and in future.

Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 4 Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 4
Why change? Reality is changing…
Overload and changes in information Rapid evolving, ubiquitous technology )ICT(. Rapid Changes in demands of working
places. Increasingly less clear future needs.
All that and more presents’…
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 55
Why change?
A challenge for education to prepare student for performance in changing dynamic world.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AWYIit1uNk teaching for skills – be relevant
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 6 Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 6
Why change ?
What are the demands from our students in changing dynamic world?
Need to cope with knowledge explosionNeed to acquire and practice new skillsNeed to adjust behavior.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 8
…..to that…2011 – not much change in teaching and learning style.

Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 99
What to change ?
What is the constrain?What stops the flow of students learning???
What is the teacher doing during lesson?Most teachers are working hard most of the time.
What are the students doing?
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 10 Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 10
What to change?What is the problem?
Teachers are supposed meet national standards and in the same time every students’ need.
Can one teacher do that during lessons?
Teachers attention is the constrain!!!!
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 11
Can we elevate the teaching
resource in class?
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Focus on students' performance.
It is common knowledge that learning is improved by teaching.
SRL with TOC tools is focused on student's thinking and executive behavior.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 12
What to change to?
If we aim at “no child is left behind” Then we have to promote every
students’ knowledge of skills for LLL
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 12
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 13
What to change to? SRL with TOC
Self Regulated Learning
A set of processes
by which the student is
raising his motivation, actions and self-monitoring
to meet learning goals.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 1414
From the need to research…
If the vision is to preparer students for LLL.
And if SRL with TOC tools gives them what is needed..
What happens when students got the opportunity ???

Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 15
Aim of research
Investigating 9th graders' yearlong SRL related to outcomes - achievement in
genetics.
“Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler”. Albert Einstein.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 16
Research questions
(1) Changes over time in SRL of experimental group as compared with that of control students, learning in
the traditional mode? (2) What are the changes over time in experimental
group students' achievement regarding knowledge of genetics as compared with control group students?
(4) What correlations emerged between experimental group students' self-reported and enacted SRL?
(5) What correlations emerged between SRL and achievement?
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 17
What have we done?What was special ?
A long term yearly design An authentic context of a regular junior-high school Heterogeneous classrooms Students learning independently The national curriculum.
Holistic study aimed at a deeper view of a complex dynamic phenomenon of
SRL using TOC tools.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 18
Instruments. Data were collected via :
LASSI questionnaire - self-reported SRL (Learning And Study Strategies Inventory, Weinstein,(1996(alpha=.91).
Yearly, Weekly and Post-Exam reports measured enacted SRL
Science knowledge tests measured students' knowledge of genetics.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 19
How did we start our journey?First step …
Utopia - up to the sky “if you can dream it you can do it” Disney
Creating motivation thorough the AT tool : Students were asked to verbalize their
AT in life.
Why not? Because….My ambitious target is: __________________________________________

SRL spiral & content construction
•SRL involves thinking and rethinking
•Student is checking the process as well as the outcomes of learning

Knowledge construction Helix
An helix of on going improvement -connections between doing and outcomes.
Changes in body of knowledge are recognized to activate proper strategy.

Socially The benefits and limitations of team work
Team work – when, how
Peer mediation.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 38
Learning Activities
The students who managed their knowledge were involved by choice in different activities:
Reading,
Answering question,
Concept maps,
Cause-effect chart,
Main ideas,
Discussions.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 39
Time management .
According to students report they were engaged in learning (hands on task) 90% of lesson time.
Monitoring effectiveness of time management raised awareness
to that invisible resource.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 40
Pace of learning progress during year
Most students did not stick to teaches plan. Each student developed own pace.
Pace of progress isn’t necessarily an indication of quality of the body of knowledge.
Personalized learning strategy is contributes to knowledge construction
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 41
Changes in SRL Students' enacted SRL
Reports indicated that students of experiment group:
(a) enacted a spiral regulation process
(b) had difficulties to phrase a goal
(c) selected mostly familiar activities
(d) identified explicit gaps but not implicit or indirectly visible gaps, (e.g., gaps in knowledge).
All these hindered monitoring.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 42
Knowledge construction of Genetics.
Students of experiment group scored higher that the control group.
Findings reflect the impact of active involvement in learning on achievement.
Student self analyze of test strategy and teacher-test corrections, promotes awareness and ability to monitor learning.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 43
Pearson Correlations Between Self-Reported SRL and Achievement
Pretest correlation in both groups was insg.
At CG-T low interaction between academic achievement and self-testimony SRL, In posttest.
At EG-SRL increased interaction over time as students’ experiences with SRL
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 44
Pearson Correlations Between Self-Reported and Enacted SRL
A sig. positive correlation emerged at the end of the year, between self-reported (Lassi) and enacted SRL (protocols)
Once students practice SRL, they improve self-awareness as users of learning strategies.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 45
Enacted SRL-Knowledge Construction Reciprocal Influences in EG-SRL
An empirical path diagram summarizing nexus of relationships among science grades and SRL levels.
The correlation between academic achievement and enacted SRL
was stronger and more sig.
than with self-reported SRL.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 46
Conclusions
Given the opportunity, every student, regardless to starting point can regulate learning and improve achievements.
A shift from learning in a teacher-controlled traditional environment to learning in student-controlled environment, required a deep transformation of learning conceptions.
Independent SRL increased students' active
involvement.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 47
Conclusions
Students' achievement in science increased sig. over the year at all levels measured
A long-term students' practice enabled them improve performance, and to "recover" from decreased motivation or self-efficacy.
It enabled researchers a deeper understanding of this dynamic phenomenon- what to keep and what to change in training.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 48
Conclusions
Experiences in SRL and achievement are interacting. Schools should provide students opportunities for
experiencing independent SRL and its components should be explicitly and intentionally taught and trained on.
Teachers should get a systematic training to become a mentor for developing self-regulated learners
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 49
Outcomes for Students: Testimonial after experiencing SRL during a year
"That learning style helps me understand materials better. I fell that we are trusted…. I enjoy more coming to school. I am independent and get to decide about my pace. My grades got higher. Every student should have the opportunity to experience that".
Outcomes: Students' testimonial
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 50
"That method is very beneficial for learning. It helped me being responsible and organized. That will help me even in university. When to ask teacher for help and even if I have to stay a while after lesson. I understood how to learn and even liked it" (Dana).
A training program for teachers to become a learning coach trough SRL with TOC tools.
The goal:
Shift the role of teachers from a channel of information to a mentor.
Discover smart methods to become a "learning coach" for students' L.L.L
A training program for teachers
The Training for teachers provides a unique full program that teachers can study and easily implement in their classes at all ages.
Teachers will acquire TOC tools and practice SRL elements & processes to become a learning coach.
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 53
Outcomes for Teachers after being trained for SRL with TOC tools, to become a learning
coach .
"That training made me realize the importance of a dynamic class. I demand my students to sit quite thinking that this is the best way to learn, mostly listening to me. I am so wrong! Peer learning with my colleagues during training, exchanging ideas, getting to know them and yet keeping the boundaries made learning very beneficial. I will start implementing SRL with TOC tool in my class
step by step" (Hagit)
Dr. Reiter,2011, SRL T.P. 54
Teachers' Testimonials
"I understand now that it is not enough to teach students content. It is very important to let the acquire and practice tools and skills and raise awareness when to use what" (Rachel)
