We explore one of the most powerful and underrated concepts in education: Self-Regulated Learning. Backed by decades of research, Self-Regulated Learning goes beyond “study tips” and reveals how expert learners take charge of their thinking, motivation, and environment to master any subject.Drawing on foundational theories, cognitive models, and affective science, this video unpacks what Self-Regulated Learning is, why it matters, and how anyone can become their own best teacher.Along the way, we cover:• What self-regulated learning really means (it’s not just “trying harder”)• Why Self-Regulated Learning is considered a “gift that keeps giving” in the learning sciences• The difference between metacognition and self-regulation• 3 landmark models of Self-Regulated Learning• How learners manage motivation, emotions, and study environments• Practical strategies to plan, perform, and ponder more effectively (Luke's 3P Model)• Why great learners are like "choice architects" of their own learning environmentsWhether you’re a student, educator, or lifelong learner this episode will change how you think about learning.⏱️ Chapters:00:00 – Intro: The Gift That Keeps Giving01:07 – What Is Self-Regulated Learning?04:40 – The Definitions: Zimmerman, Pintrich, Winne05:00 – Model 1: Zimmerman’s Cyclical Model06:12 – Model 2: Pintrich’s MSLQ Framework08:00 – Model 3: Winne & Hadwin’s Cognitive Model09:20 – The 3 Ps: Planning, Performing, Pondering10:30 – Self-Regulated Learning vs. Metacognition: What's the Difference?11:05 – Monitoring & Regulating Affective States (Feelings, Emotions, and Motivation)12:45 – Monitoring & Regulating Your Learning Environment15:00 – Brain Science (Executive Functions)20:30 – Building the Teacher Within21:50 – Recap: Why Self-Regulated Learning Matters🎓 About MeI’m Dr. Luke Rowe, PhD in learning sciences.
