Abstract

This Research Full Paper presents a collection of evidences about the association between self-regulation variables and programming learning. Researchers have been investigating this thematic and despite the apparent benefits, it is necessary to summarize the published evidence and provide a new collection of them, which this study seeks to contribute. An observational investigation was performed in two countries with fifty-nine students, who had their SRL and programming learning metrics collected and correlated. Moreover, a systematic literature review was also conducted, and the existing evidence summarized. The results support an association between metacognitive and motivational regulatory strategies with programming learning but do not support for cognitive strategies. Our analysis shows a need for more studies to provide a solid body of knowledge on this thematic.
