THE ROLE OF SELF-REGULATED LEARNING IN EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY: STRATEGIES FOR OPTIMAL STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT

Abstract

In the ever-evolving landscape of educational psychology, the concept of self-regulated learning (SRL) has emerged as a cornerstone for understanding how students engage with and shape their learning processes. As scholars and educators endeavour to enhance student achievement and foster lifelong learning, it is imperative to unravel the intricate dynamics of SRL and its multifaceted impact on educational outcomes. This paper aims to explore the pivotal role of selfregulated learning in educational psychology and delve into a comprehensive analysis of the strategies that promote optimal student achievement. Drawing upon a rich array of authors’ perspectives, empirical research, and practical applications, this compilation seeks to deepen understanding of how students' metacognition, motivation, and cognitive strategies intertwine to drive successful learning experiences.
