What is Self-Regulated Learning (SRL)

Handbook of Research on Equity in Computer Science in P-16 Education
Self-regulated learning is a theory described a process through which a student can plan, monitor and evaluate his or her learning processes by employing appropriate strategies. The theory through a number of theoretical frameworks defines activities that learners to enable them take control of their own learning ( Pintrich & Zusho, 2002 ; Zimmerman, 1986 )

Abstract
Self-regulated learning is attracting tremendous researches from various communities such as information communication technology. Recent studies have greatly contributed to the domain knowledge that the use self-regulatory skills enhance academic performance. Despite these developments in SRL, our understanding on the tools and instruments to measure SRL in online learning environments is limited as the use of traditional tools developed for face-to-face classroom settings are still used to measure SRL on e-learning systems. Modern learning management systems (LMS) allow storage of datasets on student activities. Subsequently, it is now possible to use Educational Data Mining to extract learner patterns which can be used to support SRL. This chapter discusses the current tools for measuring and promoting SRL on e-learning platforms and a conceptual model grounded on educational data mining for implementation as a solution to promoting SRL strategies.

Psychological learning process regulated by the student as an independent and responsible learner takes control of his/her actions. This can only happen when the student shows autonomy and self-control of the learning process through metacognition, strategic action, and motivation to learn towards self-regulation. For example, self-regulated learners are cognizant of their academic strengths and weaknesses, and they have a repertoire of strategies they appropriately apply to tackle the day-to-day challenges of academic tasks.
