Subclaims¶

q2 i? In a redesigned video-based multimedia SRL skill training, learners' knowledge about behavioral and environmental regulation predicted biology exam performance, while cognitive and metacognitive knowledge showed nonsignificant, positive relations with exam performance. → Joep van der Graaf 2023

q2 i? In Study 2 (n = 62), knowledge demonstrated during a redesigned video-based multimedia version of behavioral and environmental regulation training again predicted biology exam performance. → Matthew L. Bernacki 2023

q2 · i? · review · r2

The introduction reports, citing Bernacki et al. (this issue), a study with university biology students of a redesigned video-based multimedia digital skill training addressing SRL, which showed beneficial effects on learning like the original design, with moderating effects studied to explain why. No effect sizes are printed.

"Specifically, learners’ knowledge about behavioral and environmental regulation demonstrated during the training predicted biology exam performance. Cognitive and metacognitive knowledge showed nonsignificant, positive relations with exam performance."

q2 · i? · associational · r1

Study 2 replicated Study 1 analyses with students who completed a multimedia redesign in which digital videos replaced textual content to save time. The article reports that "knowledge demonstrated during a redesigned video-based multimedia version of behavioral and environmental regulation again predicted biology exam performance."

"In Study 2 (n = 62), knowledge demonstrated during a redesigned video-based multimedia version of behavioral and environmental regulation again predicted biology exam performance."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Web-based SRL training combined with a learning diary (Group TD) produced statistically significant pre-post gains in SRL knowledge, the SRL overall score and self-efficacy, but not in mathematics scores, among prospective university students in an online preparation course — related
• Self-regulated learning improves achievement — a broader claim this one bears on
• Self Regulated Learning Predicts Achievement — a broader claim this one bears on
• Self-efficacy, but not self-reported strategy use, predicts subsequent exam grades in the university course — related
• Completing the Science of Learning to Learn training conferred an effect of about one-third of a letter grade (d ~ 0.3) on subsequent quizzes and exams in the original randomized study
• Declarative and conceptual levels of learning-skill mastery predicted biology exam performance, but application-level knowledge did not
• Behavioral and environmental regulation knowledge demonstrated during digital SRL training predicted biology midterm and final exam grades, while knowledge of SRL processes did not — possibly the same claim (merge candidate)
• Training activity scores in cognitive, metacognitive, and behavioral/environmental regulation each significantly related to subsequent exam performance after controlling for prior knowledge — related
