This Targeted Research project is working to develop, refine, and test technical and pedagogical interventions to support students' Self Regulated Learning (SRL) learning processes in digital library settings, including the use of tools built into the library as well as pedagogical scaffolds that educators implement. Students must possess self-regulatory knowledge and skills, including selecting, incorporating, and evaluating resources, to take full advantage of the powerful affordances of digital libraries. Indeed, well-developed, individual knowledge and skill in student SRL are key to the efficacy of digital libraries in promoting learning. Moreover, there is good empirical evidence that SRL ability can be taught and that doing so leads to improved conceptual understanding. Based on these core propositions, this project is synthesizing knowledge from the fields of educational psychology, education, and SRL research to teach SRL specifically aimed at an NSDL Pathways collection and an analogous humanities-focused portal. The project team is identifying the key SRL processes associated with learning, followed by developing interventions that foster these processes to help educators and students realize the potential of two digital libraries. The two content domains selected are computational science ("CSERD") and history ("DocSouth"). The analysis is beginning with developing SRL mechanisms for the NSDL CSERD Pathway in both classroom and laboratory settings. This is being done at the level of skill expected of successful high school and college students. The findings from this stage are then being used to test the efficacy of these SRL tools in student use of DocSouth library (history projects). This project is investigating how and why students learn with digital libraries rather than simply whether they show gains from pre-test to post-test.

这个有针对性的研究项目正在努力开发，完善和测试技术和教学干预措施，以支持学生在数字图书馆环境中的自我调节学习（SRL）学习过程，包括使用图书馆内置的工具以及教育工作者实施的教学支架。学生必须具备自我调节的知识和技能，包括选择，整合和评估资源，以充分利用数字图书馆的强大功能。事实上，良好的发展，个人的知识和技能，在学生自主学习的数字图书馆在促进学习的功效的关键。此外，有很好的经验证据表明，SRL能力可以教，这样做会导致改善概念理解。基于这些核心主张，该项目正在综合教育心理学，教育和SRL研究领域的知识，以教授专门针对NSDL Pathways集合和类似的以人文为重点的门户网站的SRL。项目团队正在确定与学习相关的关键SRL过程，然后制定促进这些过程的干预措施，以帮助教育工作者和学生实现两个数字图书馆的潜力。选择的两个内容领域是计算科学（“CSERD”）和历史（“DocSouth”）。分析开始于在课堂和实验室环境中为NSDL CSERD途径开发SRL机制。这是在成功的高中生和大学生所期望的技能水平上进行的。从这一阶段的调查结果，然后被用来测试这些SRL工具在学生使用DocSouth图书馆（历史项目）的功效。这个项目正在调查学生如何以及为什么使用数字图书馆学习，而不仅仅是他们是否从前测试到后测试中获得了收益。
