Abstract:The aim of this educational design research is to support Dutch vocational students in Caregiving in becoming self-regulated learners, aligning with the reflective practice professional role. Through document analysis and interviews with students, supervisors, and practical trainers, the current state of the training programme was examined. Findings revealed that students received some support in self-regulated learning (SRL), including feedback exchange. However, text-based SRL interventions lacking social interaction proved inadequate in developing students as reflective practice professionals. Supervisors were identified as crucial in co-regulating students' SRL processes, but faced challenges due to limited time and needed skills. To address this, a structured approach was developed, incorporating daily stand-up and closing sessions between students and supervisors. Stand-up sessions involved goalsetting and group discussions to facilitate feedback exchange (i.e., SRL forethought phase), while closing sessions focused on self-reflection on actions, functioning, and feedback (i.e., SRL self-reflection phase). A manual was created to assist supervisors in effectively implementing this approach. Overall, the study emphasized the importance of social interaction and the role of supervisors in fostering students' development as reflective practice professionals. The structured approach and manual provided a solution to support supervisors in co-regulating students' learning processes. The findings contribute to enhancing the training programme and promoting SRL in caregiving education.
