TLDR
This article present a conceptual framework for organizing and relating terms that pertain to select knowledge constructs, which is intended to clarify terms and the associations among them, and to articulate definitional statements for these knowledge terms.
Abstract
Terms used to designate knowledge constructs have proliferated in the literature and often seem to duplicate, subsume, or contradict one another. In this article, we present a conceptual framework for organizing and relating terms that pertain to select knowledge constructs. We begin with an examination of the literature. Based on that review, we build a framework that is intended to clarify terms, and the associations among them, and to articulate definitional statements for these knowledge terms. Finally, we consider the importance of this theoretical undertaking for future research in cognition and in learning.

The role of goal orientation in self-regulated learning.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general framework of mastery and performance goals is proposed to conceptualize the academic achievement goals that students may adopt in classroom settings and their role in facilitating or constraining self-regulated learning.

Feedback and Self-Regulated Learning: A Theoretical Synthesis

TL;DR: The authors synthesize a model of self-regulation based on contemporary educational and psychological literatures, and use that model as a structure for analyzing the cognitive processes involved in selfregulation, and for interpreting and integrating findings from disparate research traditions.

Beyond Cold Conceptual Change: The Role of Motivational Beliefs and Classroom Contextual Factors in the Process of Conceptual Change

TL;DR: The authors presented an analysis of a conceptual change model for describing student learning by applying research on student motivation to the process of conceptual change and discussed the role of classroom contextual factors as moderators of the relations between student motivation and conceptual change.

A social-cognitive approach to motivation and personality

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a research-based model that accounts for these patterns in terms of underlying psychological processes, and place the model in its broadest context and examine its implications for our understanding of motivational and personality processes.

The Architecture of Cognition

TL;DR: Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT*) as mentioned in this paper is a theory of the basic principles of operation built into the cognitive system and is the main focus of Anderson's theory of cognitive architecture.

Motivational processes affecting learning.

TL;DR: In this article, Dweck describes adaptive and maladaptive motivational patterns and presents a research-based model of motivational processes and argues that this approach has important implications for practice and the design of interventions to change maladaptative motivational processes, and observes that empirically based interventions may prevent current achievement discrepancies.

Laboratory Life: The Construction of Scientific Facts

TL;DR: The authors presents laboratory science in a deliberately skeptical way: as an anthropological approach to the culture of the scientist, drawing on recent work in literary criticism, the authors study how the social world of the laboratory produces papers and other "texts,"' and how the scientific vision of reality becomes that set of statements considered, for the time being, too expensive to change.

Toward a model of text comprehension and production.

TL;DR: The semantic structure of texts can be described both at the local microlevel and at a more global macrolevel, and a model for text comprehension based on this notion accounts for the formation of a coherent semantic text base in terms of a cyclical process constrained by limitations of working memory.
