Summary

This chapter lays out the theoretical underpinning of self-regulated learning and the overlap between self-regulated learning and science and engineering practices. Examples of the cognitive processes of a self-regulated learner are explained as they attempt a learning task and travel through the cycle of forethought, performance, and self-reflection. Self-regulated learning cycles from both a naive and a skilled learner are explained. Examples of teacher support for each phase of self-regulated learning are described within the context of science and engineering practices.
