How Does Prior Knowledge Influence Learning Engagement? The Mediating Roles of Cognitive Load and Help-Seeking

Abstract: Research on learning engagement and cognitive load theory have proceeded in parallel with little cross-over of ideas. The aim of this research was to test an integrative model that examines how prior knowledge influences learning engagement via cognitive load and help-seeking strategies. A sample of 356 students from two middle schools in the north of China participated in the study. Analyses using structural equation modeling revealed that prior knowledge was positively associated with learning engagement, an… Show more

“…In other words, the scaffold afforded by the ASR-based application facilitated the regulation of learners' vocabulary use, which could gradually lead to the internalization of the regulation so that learners became able to self-regulate their vocabulary choice even when such scaffold was released. In fact, this echoes the premise of self-regulated education that the provision of adequate learning scaffolds is always salient in the course of self-regulated learning (Jong, 2019b;Dong et al, 2020). Moreover, the ASRbased practice created an avenue for students to employ the newly learned words in pre-class self-study and hence consolidated their retention for later use.…”

“…That is, proponents of the cognitive load theory have argued that students' prior knowledge helps to decrease cognitive load and thereby leading to good learning performance (e.g. ; Dong, Jong, & King, 2020;van Riesen, Gijlers, Anjewierden, & de Jong, 2019;Yeh et al, 2012). When it comes to practical work in science, science-related student pre-conceptions (background knowledge and experiences) are reported to exhibit a substantial impact on the possible learning from practical work (Hofstein, Navon, Kipnis, & Mamlok-Naaman, 2005).…”

“…Igualmente, otros estudios examinan las variables psicoeducativas relacionadas con la CLA tales como el academic engagement (Durón-Ramos et al, 2020) o el compromiso organizacional y su relación con la eficacia docente y la autoestima colectiva y su influjo en los resultados académicos (Chung, 2019) o el e-learning engagement (Gao et al, 2021); la motivación de logro y para el aprendizaje como variables claves para la consecución de resultados y mejoras en las competencias (Lai et al, 2018;Rodríguez et al, 2019); las atribuciones y las estrategias de afrontamiento ante las dificultades en el aprendizaje de competencias u otros (Morales, 2018;Song et al, 2020); los estilos de aprendizaje dentro de modelos diversos que median en los resultados en las competencias a partir de los cambios que se introducen en las metodologías docentes y en los sistemas de evaluación (Gutiérrez, 2018); la inteligencia emocional como papel mediador en el compromiso con la mejora de competencias (Merino et al, 2018); la autorregulación en la lectura y la teoría de la autorregulación incluyendo la automotivación como factores nucleares en el despliegue de las competencias (Cheng y Lin, 2020;Li et al, 2018;Qi, 2021;Suárez et al, 2019); las habilidades emocionales inter e intrapersonales de los estudiantes que juegan un papel relevante mediando en la pericia con las competencias (Almerich et al, 2018;Morales, 2018); el pensamiento crítico y creativo que introduce flexibilidad y eficiencia en el dominio de competencias (Almerich et al, 2018); el uso de los social media como arma poderosísima y cada vez más esencial en la conquista del dominio de las competencias genéricas y específicas incluyendo todo el campo de la competencia digital y la digital literacy pasando de un uso de las herramientas para el ocio a un uso cada vez más educativo (García-Martín y García, 2013); los resultados académicos (Doménech et al, 2017;Karagiannopoulou et al, 2018); la orientación a metas académicas, las actitudes y la ansiedad ante la lectura (Nootens et al, 2019;Zhou, 2017); el papel de los conocimientos previos (Dong et al, 2020); el clima y la mentalidad académica (Kearney et al, 2020); la autoeficacia creativa (He et al, 2020); la autoeficacia y aceptación de la tecnología móvil en un modelo estructural complejo (Levy et al, 2020); incluyendo el papel crec...…”
