Multimodal Data in SRL/SSRL Research – the How and Why in Data Collection and Making It Meaningful?
One of the main challenges in studying self-regulated learning (SRL) and socially shared regulation (SSRL) is the accurate measurement and analysis of cognitive, metacognitive, socioemotional and behavioral processes in collaborative learning. The collection of extensive data from multiple modalities and sources, known as multichannel and multimodal data, offers a unique opportunity to address this challenge and more deeply explore the processes of SSRL. In this workshop I will introduce a) our progress using different data modalities in understanding learning process, b) explain our conceptual framework guiding empirically evidencing SSRL during learning and collaboration episodes, and c) demonstrate examples from our research in our multimodal data collection.
