What is it about?

Online learning has become even more critical after Covid-19. Therefore, it is essential for online institutions to provide a more collaborative and interactive learning environment and promote productive online communities. This paper uses multiple regression analysis to determine if students' self- and co-regulation influence the Community of Inquiry presences (teaching, cognitive, and social). The results showed that self-regulation had the highest influence on teaching and cognitive presence, while co-regulation influenced social presence.

Why is it important?

Teachers who encourage student self- and co-regulation may enhance their online teaching and cognitive and social presence when studying online. The research’s findings may be valuable to teachers, enabling them to provide a more collaborative and interactive online learning environment and promote productive online communities.

Perspectives

I envision that this article will contribute to the body of knowledge regarding the dynamics of shared metacognition within the CoI framework. It was a great pleasure writing it with my co-author, and I hope the reader finds it thought-provoking.
