This book shows how principles of self-regulated learning are being
implemented in secondary classrooms. The 14 chapters are
theoretically driven and supported by empirical research and
address all common high school content areas. The book comprises 29
lesson plans in English language arts, natural and physical
sciences, social studies, mathematics, foreign language, art,
music, health, and physical education. Additionally, the chapters
address students with special needs, technology, and homework. Each
chapter begins with one or more lesson plans written by master
teachers, followed by narratives explaining how the lesson plans
were implemented. The chapters conclude with an analysis written by
expert researchers of the self-regulated learning elements in the
lessons. Each lesson and each analysis incorporate relevant
educational standards for that area. Different types of high
schools in several states serve as venues. This powerful new book
edited by Maria K. DiBenedetto provides a unique and invaluable
resource for both secondary teachers and researchers committed to
supporting adolescents in the development of academic
self-regulation. Each chapter is jointly written by teachers who
provide a wealth of materials, including lesson plans, and
researchers who situate these lesson plans and academic
self-regulation goals within the larger work on self-regulation.
The topics covered are far broader than any other book I have seen
in terms of developing academic self-regulation, covering over a
dozen content areas, including literacy, mathematics, social
studies, the sciences, and the arts. Teachers and scholars alike
will find this book a must read. Karen Harris, EdD, Arizona State
University A practical and magnificent blend of educational
research and application. This book goes beyond presenting the
findings of research on self regulation by connecting detailed
strategies that align with the standards to the research.
DiBenedetto et al. clearly illustrate how to develop self regulated
learners in the classroom. A refreshing must read for all secondary
educators and educational researchers seeking to be well grounded
in education research and practical application techniques. Heather
Brookman, PhD, Fusion Academy- Park Avenue Self-regulated learning
is a research-based process by which teachers help students realize
their own role in the learning process. Connecting Self-Regulated
Learning and Performance with Instruction Across High School
Content Areas consists of model teachers' lessons and analyses by
prominent educational psychologists in the field of self-regulated
learning. The book provides teachers with the tools needed to
increase students' awareness of learning and inspires all educators
to use self-regulated learning to promote engagement, motivation,
and achievement in their students. The book also provides
administrators with the principles needed to infuse evidenced based
self-regulated learning into their curriculum and instruction. I
highly recommend the book! Marty Richburg, Northside High School
