Applications of SelfRegulated Learning across Diverse Disciplines

Through its research-to-practice focus, this book honors the professional contributions of Professor Barry J. Zimmerman as illustrated by the recent self-regulation applications of a highly respected group of national and international scholars. This book will serve as a valuable resource for those interested in empowering and enabling learners to successfully manage and self direct their lives, education, and careers. In particular, K12 educators, college instructors, coaches, musicians, health care providers, and researchers will gain invaluable insight into the nature of self regulation as well as how they can readily apply self regulation principles into their teaching, instruction, or mentoring. Emergent trends in education and psychology circles, such as linking selfregulated learning assessment and interventions as well as the use of technology to enhance student learning and self regulation, are additional themes addressed in the book. The kaleidoscope of selfregulation issues addressed in this book along with the wide range of promising intervention applications should also prove to be particularly appealing to graduate students as they pursue their future research activities and seek to optimize their individual growth and development.
