Blended learning (BL) is an effective strategy that combines traditional face-to-face classroom activities with online learning tools. Using digital notes in e-books is a useful feature. This study explores the sequential patterns of e-book note-taking for self-regulated learning (SRL) in a blended learning course. The results show differences in note-taking behavior between high-achieving and low-achieving blended learners. This research can assist educators in providing evidence-based educational feedback to enhance SRL and course achievement in BL.
Blended learning (BL) is regarded as an effective strategy for combining traditional face-to-face classroom activities with various types of online learning tools (e.g., e-books). An effective feature of e-books is the ability to use digital notes. When e-books are used in BL, the strategic adoption of note-taking provides benefits that influence the learners' progress for self-regulated learning (SRL) and course achievements. However, learners tend to be unsure about how note-taking is performed using online learning materials and lack knowledge of effective strategies for SRL. Furthermore, few studies have investigated blended learners' sequential patterns of e-book note-taking for SRL. Thus, in this paper, an exploratory study was conducted in an undergraduate course that implemented the BL design. The learning task for the blended learners in the present study was to study the learning material using BookRoll, an e-book system, during in-class and out-of-class learning sessions. Lag sequential analysis of the e-book learning behavior data was conducted to identify the blended learners' sequential behaviors of e-book note-taking for the cognitive strategy use of SRL. Moreover, the difference between higher-and lower-achievement blended learners in terms of their sequential behaviors of e-book note-taking for SRL was revealed. This study can help educators provide evidence-based educational feedback to learners regarding the identified sequential patterns of e-book note-taking that can be applied as effective strategies for promoting the cognitive strategy use of SRL and improvement of course achievement in BL.
