Summary

Difficulty in employment for college students is a serious social problem in China. All qualification examinations, further education and jobs require written theory tests. Many students are affected by their examinations, additional studies, and employment due to poor academic performance and insufficient learning ability. College students majoring in physical education generally perform better in motor technical skills but often encounter difficulties in theoretical learning. According to the existing literature and many studies, self-regulated learning is an advanced form of metacognitive learning (Pintrich, 2004). It helps cultivate students\' independent learning ability and can improve their theoretical academic performance. This study attempts to use self-regulated learning in physical education theory classes to examine whether this method can enhance physical education students' theoretical academic performance.

Detailed description

In this study, the experimental group received a 12-week (John, 2017) self-regulated learning strategy based on a learning model teaching intervention designed for this study. In contrast, the control group discussed and studied traditional learning content for 12 weeks with the teacher, and the students in the experimental group learned the self-regulated learning strategy. A cluster-randomised controlled trial (CRCT) design was used, and the experimental and control groups were randomly assigned to two schools. After 12 weeks of learning, both groups were required to conduct a learning performance assessment.
