The compare of self regulated learning strategies between computer-based and print-based learning students

Abstract

The present research was done to compare self regulated learning strategies (SRLS) between computer-based and print-based learning students. To do so, 53 participants as experimental group and 50 participants as control group from Payame Noor University were selected randomly. The experimental group was taught via computer and control group was taught via printed materials for 8 weeks. In order to gathering the data of self regulation learning strategies and its components, the (SRLS) questionnaire modified by Zimmerman and Pons (1986) were used. In present research the reliability of questionnaire computed via Chronbach's Alpha (α = 0.93). Research method was quasi experimental. Data analyzing was done by using univariate analysis of variance. Some of the most important results are: The rate of SRLS in computer-based group was higher than rate of SRLS in print-based group. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
