Effects of Elicited Reflections Combined with Tutor or Peer Feedback on Self-Regulated Learning and Learning Outcomes
van den Boom, Gerard; Paas, Fred; van Merrienboer, Jeroen J. G.
Learning and Instruction, v17 n5 p532-548 Oct 2007
This study investigated the effects of students' reflections, combined with suggestive feedback, on the development of self-regulated learning and learning outcomes. Suggestive feedback alerts students that further reflection is advisable, without being very directive. Forty-nine students participated in a regular web-based distance education course on work psychology. In two experimental conditions students were prompted to reflect on their learning process, and received feedback on their reflections, either from peer students or a tutor. These conditions were compared to a control condition in which students studied the regular course without reflection and feedback. In line with the hypothesis, results showed that reflection combined with feedback positively affected students' self-regulated learning. In addition, students in the condition with tutor feedback outperformed students in both other conditions on learning outcomes.
