| Abstract: | Professionals' self-regulated learning process can be hindered by the fact that they often do not recognise informal workplace learning. This thesis explores two important self-regulated learning strategies. In particular, it investigates whether a learning diary can sustain professionals’ awareness of how and when, and reflective prompts about informal learning activities can improve their strategic planning. Results show no improvement in both awareness of how and when and strategic planning. Different elements that could have affected the results were discussed. On the methodological side, the study overlooked long-loop self-regulated learning, and participants' learning needs and goals, emphasising day-to-day learning instead. In this type of learning, characterized by limited time, professionals prioritize performance over learning opportunities and planning. Other methodological aspects, such as the type of prompts, measurement methods and frequency for specific variables, might have played a role in the results. By considering these aspects, a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of the learning diary on awareness of how and when and reflective prompts on strategic planning might be achieved. |
