    Because of the expanding COVID-19, it has become more important that students acquire learning skills by themselves and become self-regulated learners. Considering such circumstances with COVID-19, motivation for using ICT in education at schools is relatively higher than in earlier years. The current study has developed an "online-based learning skills improvement program" conducted in a public high school to support students' learning skills for studying by themselves. The participants were 33 10th-grade students who voluntarily participated in the program. The program included six sessions and gave concrete instructions on how to study more in-depth. As a result, students showed an orientation toward self-regulated learning, such as a proactive attitude toward analyzing their failure and utilizing it in subsequent learning. The current paper also discusses the factors and conditions of change in learners' behaviours.

  • The Role of Homework in Student Learning: A Review from a Psychological Perspective

    Homework can have both positive and negative effects on student learning. To overcome thenegative effects and facilitate the positive ones, it is important for teachers to understand theunderlying mechanisms of homework and how it relates to learning so that they can use the mosteffective methods of instruction and guidance. To provide a useful guide, this paper reviewedprevious research studies and considered the roles of homework and effective instructionalstrategies from three psychological perspectives: behavioral, information-processing, andsocial constructivism. From a behavioral perspective, homework can be viewed as increasing opportunities for the repeated practice of knowledge and skills, whereas the information processing perspective places greater importance on the capacity of homework to promote deeper understanding and metacognition. Viewed from a social constructivist perspective, homework can promote the establishment of connections in the learning that occurs in school, at home, and in the wider community. Studies have shown that each of these roles of homework can contribute to the facilitation of meaningful learning and the support of students toward becoming self-initiated learners. However, there are some crucial challenges that remain in applying this knowledge to the actual school setting. This paper's conclusion discusses possible directions for much-needed future research and suggests potential solutions.

  • Promoting Deep Understanding through Homework and Classroom Lesson Redesign:Focusing on High School Students' Mathematics Learning

    The importance of deep understanding is well-known in education. Especially when students learn complex and difficult contents such as high school mathematics, it is hard to completely understand the knowledge only during classroom lessons. In such cases, we need to promote deep understanding throughout a learning cycle including after-class review. The purpose of this research was to develop homework tasks that can promote understanding of the reasoning behind mathematical formulae and/or theorems, to extract an effective way of task designing, and to examine feasibility in a real educational setting. The authors implemented the practice in a high school and placed emphasis on i) clarifying the definition of deep understanding for each lesson, ii) linking classroom lessons and homework in terms of how to promote students' explanation, and iii) designing tasks/questionswhich can avoid rote memorization and/or copying. The analysis results of quantitative data suggest a positive effect from the intervention. However, for some students, the effectiveness and value of the intervention seemed not to be clear enough. The limitations of and future directions for this research are discussed.
