Abstract

As the nexus between personalized learning and technology-mediated learning, self-regulated learning is a topic of great research interest and a range of issues are still open for investigation. There is a substantial interest in the instructional tools supporting SRL in digital learning environment. In this chapter, the authors present an empirical evidence of self-regulated learning experiences dwelled in a blended learning environment in higher education. In this particular context, the experiences obtained from two intervention groups who engaged in the same blended learning course were examined. The purpose is to provide an insight regarding the current trajectories of learning in terms of student-centered approach with relation to emerging pedagogical practice. Results show that pedagogical approach does not guarantee a pleasingly improved learning; rather, there is a need for additional mechanism that might raise students' interest. Subsequently, imperative implications for educators, researchers, and curriculum developers are forwarded.
