Essay: Imagine that you are struggling to learn a concept in math. Provide brief descriptions of how you would address the first two components of self-regulation to work towards improving your learning.
Student Answer: If I don't understand a math concept, I need to break the concept into parts. I might need to plan ways to learn that concept--get extra help, watch videos, do all the practice problems--and then as I'm completing those tasks, check them off. I would circle which method works best for me and what is not working, and adjust my plan as I go. Finally, as I'm working on the concept, I need to reflect on how it went. As I reflect, I would notice when my "ah-ha" moment hit, think about the strategies that worked, and plan for future concepts. |
