Faculty Book Club: Creating Self-Regulated Learners

Creating Self-Regulated Learners: Strategies to Strengthen Students’ Self-Awareness & Learning Skills written by Linda B. Nilson

Faculty members attending these sessions will learn techniques they can use to enhance their students’ self-regulation, and those techniques are differentiated for different points in a course. The author “distinguishes self-regulation from related constructs such as metacognition, deliberate practice, and emotional control based on the latest research and theory. . . . [She] defines self-regulation in temporal terms—namely, processes and beliefs that precede, accompany, and follow efforts to learn, which in turn affect subsequent cycles of learning. This temporal approach to self-regulated learning has important benefits for both students and teachers, such as producing increases in students’ achievement, depth and scope of reasoning, conscious focus on learning, and enhanced self-reflection.” (p. xxii)
