24. AERO's Supporting Self-Regulated Learning (2024)

In this episode of 'Educate to Self-Regulate', Shy and Rory unpack some key implications of Australian Education Research Organisation (AERO)'s latest practice guide on Supporting Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) 🧠📚

The article is a fantastic prompt to support conversations about teaching SRL in schools. T& L leaders may consider setting it as professional reading with a thinking routine like ‘Connect-Extend-Challenge’ and then meeting in a literacy circle to discuss.

The boys’ takeaways include:

1. Teach and Model SRL: Explicitly teach different techniques including concept mapping, summarising and self-testing. Scaffold learning tasks by setting and revisiting goals.

2. Encourage Self-Evaluation: Help students assess their work and reflect on learning strategies. Celebrate progress and effort, not just outcomes.

3. Address Misconceptions: Educate students on effective study habits like spaced practice and active recall.

4. Create a Supportive Environment: Engage families and foster a classroom culture that values effort and continuous improvement.
