Online Resources

Hello Everyone,

After using the Walden University search engines, I came across two online journals below which relate to the topics we disucssed during week two in EDUC 6115.

1. Cognitive Process of Human Problem Solving: I found this article through EBSCOHost. It is a great online jounal because it discusses the cognitive structres of the brain in relation to problem solving.

2. Self-Regulated Learning: I found this online journal through ProQuest. I enjoyed reading this journal and found it helpful because the authors discuss not only the information processing theory, but also expand upon the area of self-regulated learning. The information helps the reader to go beyond the information processing theory to further understand cognitive, motivational, and contextual factors which influence the learning process as well.
