Summary: The invention of ChatGPT and generative AI technologies poses challenges for educators, including concerns about students using these tools unethically or gaining academic merits without active participation. To navigate this shift, it is important to embrace AI as an educational trend and establish pedagogical principles for utilizing technologies like ChatGPT to promote self-regulation. Collaboration among stakeholders and incorporating goal setting, self-assessment and feedback, and personalization are essential for integrating AI chatbots in classrooms.

Summary: This study examined the impact of goal-setting on learning during search through a crowdsourced study. The researchers developed a tool called the Subgoal Manager (SM) to investigate the role of goal-setting. The results showed that participants achieved the best learning outcomes in the condition where they set their own subgoals.

Summary: This study examined the effects of mental contrasting and implementation intentions (MCII) as a self-regulated learning support on learners' motivation, self-regulated learning, engagement, performance, and goal attainment. Results showed that MCII had a positive impact on learners' sustained task value and persistence, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the duration for goal attainment.

Summary: This study found that embedding the learning protocol task in a mastery goal structure is more beneficial than embedding it in a performance goal structure, as it fosters metacognitive processes, learning outcomes, and learning efficiency. Consideration of contextual factors such as goal structure is crucial for understanding and optimizing the effects of learning protocols.

Summary: Research shows that failing a high and specific goal can have detrimental effects on an individual's affect, self-esteem, and motivation, which may be crucial for organizational long-term outcomes. Therefore, organizations should consider potential undesirable effects when using goal-setting interventions.

Summary: In recent decades, there has been a growing interest in studies on motivation related to second/foreign language learning. Research findings indicate that academic motivation plays a crucial role in students' success in their studies. One aspect of academic motivation is goal orientation, which explains why learners engage in achievement activities. Goal setting is considered an important cognitive interface that connects motivation to behavior. It serves as a motivating factor and promotes success in various fields. Achievement goal theory (AGT) and goal setting theory are two motivational theories that have been developed to explain motivation in the context of second/foreign language learning. This review aims to contribute to the existing literature on these theories and has pedagogical implications for English as a foreign language stakeholders.

Summary: Asynchronous online learning is popular for its flexibility in providing higher education access to learners regardless of distance and scheduling constraints. However, successful online learning requires students to adapt and intensify the self-regulated learning (SRL) skills they developed in face-to-face settings. Current literature lacks universally applicable instructional design interventions to foster learners' SRL skills across disciplines. This study investigates student perceptions of a reflective SRL intervention in an online biology course and recommends reflective prompts as a beneficial practice in online courses.

Summary: In the field of self-regulated learning ability for college students, the role of parents is often neglected when considering the physical distance between college and home. This study explores the relationships among perceived parental academic expectations, mastery goal orientation, self-reflection, and self-regulated learning ability of college students. The results indicate that mastery goal orientation partially mediates the relationship between perceived parental academic expectations and self-regulated learning, and self-reflection moderates this relationship.

Summary: This study found that self-set goals are preferred to promote positive behavioural spillover, while other interventions such as providing monetary rewards do not trigger spillover effects. Additionally, goal commitment was found to have a moderating effect on spillover effects during the process of goal-setting for electricity consumption.

Summary: Goal-conditioned reinforcement learning aims to control agents to reach desired goals, but current methods have limitations in sample efficiency and training data. This paper proposes integrating self-imitation learning with goal-conditioned RL to create a compatible framework. The introduced target action value function effectively combines these two training mechanisms and can learn a superior policy compared to existing approaches.

Summary: This research explores the factors influencing students' attitude toward self-regulated learning in a blended learning setting. The results indicate that perceived teacher support, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control have a positive impact on students' attitude toward self-regulated learning within the blended learning context. Additionally, attitude has a positive mediating effect on the relationships between perceived teacher support and self-regulated learning intention, as well as between major satisfaction and self-regulated learning intention. The findings have important implications for enhancing students' learning in the blended learning context.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate goal orientations and classroom goal structures and their relationship with strategies of self-regulated learning in students with and without learning disabilities and reading comprehension difficulties. The results showed that students with LD and RCD scored lower in mastery orientation and higher in performance avoidance. LD students reported lower scores of adaptive strategies than their peers. This study highlights the importance of goal orientations and classroom goal structures for students' self-regulated learning.

Summary: Sexual dysfunction is a common issue in females with inflammatory bowel disease, affecting intimacy, sexual activity, and satisfaction, as well as interpersonal relationships. Risk factors include surgical interventions, medications, mental illnesses, and comorbidities. Evaluation may involve questionnaires, mental health assessment, symptom inquiry, and physical examination. A multidisciplinary care team is recommended for optimal care and treatment, including specialists, therapists, and physicians. Management options include therapy and support, but further research is needed on the impact of disease activity and healthcare for sexual and gender minorities.
