ABSTRACT
This study sought to improve the performance of students with low motivation and grades in university-level mathematics. Objective and subjective data were collected simultaneously from e-learning and motivation tests, respectively, and were analyzed using machine learning. The results were, thereafter, provided as feedback to the learners, which enabled them to undertake self-regulated learning. To enhance and refine our previous study, we conducted Structural Equation Modeling to analyze the causality between factors that lead to motivation for self-regulated learning, adding new subjective data collected through the use of Motivation Scales of Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire. This is how we provided them with better feedback. The results of the evaluation experiment confirmed that the experimental group with feedback showed increase in the final exam scores and the subscale scores related to motivation.

Recommendations
Promoting self-regulated learning in web-based learning environments
Self-regulated learning with the Internet or hypermedia requires not only cognitive learning strategies, but also specific and general meta-cognitive strategies. The purposes of the Study2000 project, carried out at the TU Dresden, were to develop and ...
Self-regulated learning strategies predict learner behavior and goal attainment in Massive Open Online Courses
Individuals with strong self-regulated learning (SRL) skills, characterized by the ability to plan, manage and control their learning process, can learn faster and outperform those with weaker SRL skills. SRL is critical in learning environments that ...
Ontologies for Self-Regulated Learning
Proceedings of the 2005 conference on Towards Sustainable and Scalable Educational Innovations Informed by the Learning Sciences: Sharing Good Practices of Research, Experimentation and InnovationSelf-regulated learning is the key for students to be masters of their own learning processes. These self-initiated processes enable these students to become controllers of their learning experiences. The objective of this research is to maximize the ...
