Massive Open Online Course, Self-regulated Online learning, Confirmatory Factor Analysis,Abstract
The objective of this research is to use confirmatory factor analysis in the LISEL program to verify the factor structure of a collection of observed variables and to eliminate a few points in the assessment of the behavior factors that are irrelevant, and confirm the data with the model fit. The study includes two sample groups. In phase one, we used the original self-regulated online learning form with 42 questions and ran confirmatory factor analysis on the data from the group sample size of 1,999 participants on the LISREL application that generates a modified self-regulated online learning form that includes only 31 questions. In phase two, we use a modified self-regulate form as a survey and collect the data from a sample size of 10,000 participants. Model fit and survey results were closely matched, which suggests that learners have good self-regulation for online learning.
