“Learning to learn<\/em>” \u2013 the ability to monitor and productively adapt one\u2019s learning process \u2013 is a key competence formulated by the European Parliament (2006) and increasingly a central focus of education. Prior research has shown that self-regulated learning (SRL) leads to better learning performance but students often experience difficulties to adequately self-regulate their learning. Instructional scaffolds are a successful method to help learners and consequently improve learning outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning analytics and machine learning offer an approach to better understand SRL-processes during learning. Yet, current approaches lack validity or require extensive analysis after the learning process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This research collaboration will research how to advance support given to students by: i) improving unobtrusive data collection and machine learning techniques to gain better measurement and understanding of SRL-processes and ii) using these new insights to facilitate student\u2019s SRL by providing personalized scaffolds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will reach this goal by investigating and improving trace data in exploratory studies (exploratory study 1 and study 2) and using the insight gained from these studies to develop and test personalized scaffolds based on individual learning processes in laboratory (experimental study 3 and study 4) and a subsequent field study (field study 5). Our joint expertise in the fields of self-regulated learning and learning analytics provide superior opportunities to develop and test more powerful adaptive educational technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
