Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has catalysed the transition of teaching and learning in higher education into online mode, and this has posted great challenges for both teachers and students. While various emerging technologies have shown their potentials to facilitate student learning, self-regulated learning is still key to online learning success. Furthermore, self-regulated learning is an important skill that can benefit students’ lifelong learning and future career. This seminar will focus on discussing effective strategies and instructional design principles that teachers can adopt during different stages of learning to better support students’ planning, monitoring, and reflecting in online learning environments.
