Some Fun Facts about Myself

My name is Aidan Lewis, currently 20 years of age, born and raised in Canberra, and am in my last semester of my undergraduate bachelor of science in psychology degree at the University of Canberra. In the near future, I hope to be accepted into honours and write a thesis on educational psychology.

After my honours, I wish to become an academic and be employed by a university, researching educational psychology whilst also teaching it.

My Book Chapter

The topic I will be exploring is Self-regulated learning. I am interested in exploring this topic due to concurrent studies of similarity that I am undergoing for an internship, which is on the efficacy of problem-based learning in a range of academic scenarios and the predictors of academic success; which one seems to be self-regulated learning.

My Plan

The topics I will discuss include:

• The definition of self-regulated learning
• How self-regulated learning be fostered
• What is the efficacy of the implementation of self-regulated learning in a number of academic scenarios
• What impacts self-regulated learning have on educational outcomes
