Teachers' self-efficacy in promoting self-regulated learning (TSE-SRL) is pivotal for self-regulated learning (SRL) practices. This study investigated the effects of mastery and vicarious experiences as sources of self-efficacy within a professional development (PD) program on TSE-SRL. Additionally, the moderating role of teachers' prior SRL experience, SRL mindsets and their own SRL skills was examined. The sample included fifty-four lower secondary school teachers who participated in a quasi-experimental PD program with an experimental group ( = 31) and a control group ( = 23). Both groups were exposed to mastery and vicarious experiences. However, while the experimental group focused on developing competencies for promoting SRL, the control group focused on teachers' competencies to promote social skills. Results from several regression models revealed that TSE-SRL was developed through the PD program for both groups, with a slightly higher improvement in the experimental group. Teachers' previous experience was the only variable moderating this effect. The study provides information about the importance of mastery and vicarious experiences for TSE-SRL and the design of PD programs to foster TSE-SRL.

Background: Conventional automated writing evaluation systems typically provide insufficient support for students with special needs, especially in tonal language acquisition such as Chinese, primarily because of rigid feedback mechanisms and limited customisation.
Objective: This research develops context-aware Hierarchical AI Tutor for Writing Enhancement(CHATWELL), an intelligent tutoring platform that incorporates optimised large language models to deliver instantaneous, customised, and multi-dimensional writing assistance for Chinese language learners, with special consideration for those with cognitive learning barriers.
Methods: CHATWELL employs a hierarchical AI framework with a four-tier feedback mechanism designed to accommodate diverse learning needs.

Background: Medical education has been experiencing a transition from time- to competency-based. Since their introduction by Olle ten Cate in 2005, entrustable professional activities are a part of this process. We implemented a set of EPAs for the first 3 years of training at our hospital, encompassed by informational materials for trainees and supervisors.

Background: Relationships and interactions with peers have been related consistently to a range of motivational outcomes at school. This collection of papers has important implications for and raises interesting questions about the role that classmates play in motivating each other to engage academically. This is especially important given that the 'how' and 'why' of social influence on academic motivation has rarely been addressed in a systematic fashion.

Background: The necessity for self-regulated, lifelong learners in the rapidly evolving field of medicine underscores the importance of effective study skills. Efforts to support students with these skills have had positive outcomes but are often limited in scope and accessibility, with a tendency to target groups facing immediate challenges.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the student perspective on study skills support at University College London Medical School through a student-staff partnership, with the goal of guiding future improvements.

Importance: The Learning and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI) is an instrument that measures self-regulated learning. However, it has not been validated for use in entry-level Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) learners.
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the LASSI in DPT learners.
