Students who self-regulate are more likely to improve their academic performance, find value in their learning process, and continue to be effective lifelong learners. However, online students often struggle to self-regulate, which may contribute to lower academic performance. Likewise, less experienced online teachers who are in the process of implementing—or have implemented—a shift from in-person to distance learning may struggle to enable their students to employ effective self-regulation techniques. Supporting Self-Regulated Learning and Student Success in Online Courses examines current theoretical frameworks, research projects, and empirical studies related to the design, implementation, and evaluation of self-regulated learning models and interventions in online courses and discusses their implications. Covering key topics such as online course design, student retention, and learning support, this reference work is ideal for administrators, policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars, instructors, and students.
