Abstract

Purpose: To explore self-regulated learning among nursing students and the relationship between the teaching methods used and self-regulated learning.

Methods: A quantitative cross-sectional survey is conducted with 208 nursing students using the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ).

Results: In relation to self-regulated learning, the results demonstrate that students had moderate scores in both motivation (4.43) and learning strategies (4.58). Men students showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) compared to women students regarding test anxiety included on motivation section. Generally, a preference for active teaching methods was observed. Additionally, results demonstrate that there was a moderate positive correlation between score of motivation and project-based learning (r =0,481; p ppp<0.001).

Conclusion: The findings will provide valuable insights for educators seeking to enhance their methods to foster self-regulated learning in their students. In this regard, prioritizing active teaching methods is strongly recommended within the context of nursing education.
