Abstract

In the rapidly changing digital era, schools face the challenge of developing self-regulated learning (SRL) skills, particularly problem-solving, which is crucial for lifelong learning. Literature often discusses learners’ difficulties in problem-solving and measuring SRL strategies. This study explores students’ challenges during the problem-solving process. A video-assisted SRL training program was developed, including a digital toolkit with materials like checklists, interactive videos, and problem-solving tasks. Analyzing 1,417 responses from 13–16-year-old students, the study revealed difficulties in time planning, problem identification, exploration, providing solutions, and solution evaluation. Interestingly, there were significant differences between students’ pre-questionnaire reports and their video prompt responses. These findings can inform the development of feedback-based technologies like chatbots and virtual assistants to enhance efficient problem-solving for learners.
