A Practical Approach to Supporting Science and Engineering Students with Self-Regulated Learning

A Practical Approach to Supporting Science and Engineering Students with Self-Regulated Learning by Erin E. Peters-Burton is published by Cambridge University Press and will be available on November 16, 2023. This 200-page book offers insights into the challenges of teaching science and engineering practices, emphasizing the importance of skill-based learning over mere content knowledge. It provides educators with strategies to create effective learning environments that promote student goal setting, monitoring, and reflection on their performance.
Readers will find practical guidance on how to support effective learning behaviors and track student progress in science and engineering practices. The book also outlines methods for preservice teacher instruction and inservice teacher professional development, focusing on self-regulated learning. Additionally, it includes educational research designs from qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods traditions, exploring the engagement of students and teachers with these practices.
Official synopsis Publisher
Science and engineering practices tend to be more difficult to teach and monitor for student progress than content knowledge, because practices are skill based. This book presents tangible ways for teacher educators and teachers to design learning environments that involve student goal setting, monitoring, and reflection on their performance of science and engineering practices. It models ways teachers can support effective learning behaviors and monitor student progress in science and engineering practices. It also presents practical ways to set up preservice teacher instruction and inservice teacher professional development that address both self-regulated learning and science and engineering practices. Educational research designs are presented from qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods traditions that investigate student and teacher engagement with science and engineering practices through self-regulated learning.
