Researchers from Monash University and collaborators developed the FLoRA engine, a web-based system designed to unobtrusively collect fine-grained trace data from learners to detect and facilitate self-regulated learning (SRL) processes in real-time. The engine integrates with existing LMSs and employs a validated, combined theory-driven and data-driven approach for accurately mapping digital actions to SRL activities, providing adaptive, personalized scaffolding.
Key insights
- A combined theory-driven and data-driven validation methodology, triangulating trace data with think-aloud data, is effective for accurately extracting complex SRL processes from digital actions.
- Learners' initial plans are dynamic and often deviate due to the influence of pre-existing learning conditions and evolving contextual changes during task progression.
- While personalized scaffolds can induce SRL activities, their direct effect on overall learning performance is nuanced and context-dependent, warranting further investigation into the relationship between SRL engagement and direct outcomes.
