Empowering Self-Regulated Learning and Executive Function in Students
Students today face increasing challenges in managing their own learning, particularly in environments that demand greater autonomy and self-discipline. The trend toward fostering self-regulated learning (SRL) addresses these challenges by equipping students with the skills to set goals, monitor their progress, and adjust their learning strategies. Research by Zimmerman and Schunk (1998, 2011) highlights that SRL is essential for academic success, as it enables students to take control of their learning, leading to better outcomes and greater resilience in diverse educational settings.
Top schools across North America have recognized the importance of SRL and have implemented strategies to integrate it into their everyday teaching practices. These initiatives are designed to create more self-sufficient learners who can thrive in the classroom, higher education, and the world of work.
Our Solution
At Studyo, we offer a pragmatic approach to implementing self-regulated learning (SRL) in schools, designed to minimize teacher workload while maximizing student benefits. Our solution, developed under the guidance of Dr. Kelsey Losenno from McGill University, requires only a few minutes each day from teachers and provides a step-by-step plan to successfully integrate SRL into any classroom. This ensures that the process is both sustainable and scalable, empowering every school to help their students become more independent and effective learners.
Professional Development Workshops
Implementing Self-Regulated Learning starts with professional development for teachers and school staff. This critical phase provides teachers with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to get started. The workshops also enables the Studyo team to learn about your specific school and teachers’ needs so we can shape your plan to make students more self-directed and build their executive function skills.
Three workshops are initially offered, to be scheduled over the course of 3-6 months to ensure the ongoing development and reinforcement of SRL practices. With each workshop, participants are pre-surveyed in order to customize the workshop, building upon their prior knowledge and directly addressing their current needs.
Workshops are delivered by Dr. Kelsey Losenno who’s research is focused on self-regulated learning. The workshops are co-designed with Pure & Applied, a learning and development organization with expertise in evidence-based instructional design and K12 professional development.
