Panadero compares six influential models of self-regulated learning: those developed by Zimmerman, Boekaerts, Winne and Hadwin, Pintrich, Efklides, and Hadwin, Järvelä, and Miller.
The review shows that self-regulation is not a single study skill but an interacting set of cognitive, metacognitive, behavioural, motivational, and emotional processes. Although the models use different terminology and levels of analysis, they commonly describe cyclical activity in which learners interpret a task, set goals, select and monitor strategies, and adapt in light of feedback. The paper traces how the field has expanded from individual regulation toward co-regulation and socially shared regulation in collaborative learning. It also identifies directions for research, including integrating models, improving measurement, studying emotion and motivation, and examining regulation in groups and technology-rich settings.
For educators, the comparison supports designing tasks that make goals and standards clear, prompt planning and monitoring, provide usable feedback, and gradually help learners assume control of their learning.
Panadero and Järvelä review evidence for socially shared regulation of learning, distinguishing it from individual self-regulation and co-regulation led or supported by another person.
Their narrative review identifies seventeen relevant articles, thirteen of which provide empirical evidence. Across these studies, group members jointly plan, monitor, control, and evaluate cognitive, metacognitive, motivational, and emotional aspects of collaborative work. The authors conclude that socially shared regulation is empirically distinguishable, although it can alternate and interact with self- and co-regulation as collaboration unfolds. Evidence also suggests positive relations with learning and group performance, but the field uses varied concepts, units of analysis, and methods.
The review therefore calls for clearer theoretical boundaries, process-sensitive measurement, and research that captures regulation dynamically rather than treating it as a stable individual trait or a single group-level event.
