Methodological Progress in Co-Regulation and Socially Shared Regulation of Learning Research: A Systematic Review

Abstract

Self-regulated learning (SRL), co-regulation (CoRL), and socially shared regulation of learning (SSRL) have been essential for successful learning and collaboration. However, it is challenging to objectively capture the “invisible” cognitive and emotional processes at the foundation of learning regulation. To better understand and support SSRL, the study reviewed 118 journals published between 2003 and 2020. Results highlighted the need for methodological development of reliable multilevel analysis methods to analyze multimodal data at different proximal levels.
