Studying the effectiveness of using electronic content of mathematics course on self-regulatory learning and academic achievement

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of using the electronic content of mathematics course on self-Regulatory learning and academic achievement of students studying at the 9th grade.Methods: The method used in this study was semi-experimental, using pre-test and post-test with a control group. Moreover, the statistical population of this study was comprised of the students studying at Parvin Etesami school of Aligudarz city in the academic year of 2018-2019. The sample size included 40 students who were selected by available sampling method from the third grade of junior high school. 20 people were selected as the experimental group and 20 people were selected as the control group. The experimental group was exposed to ten one-hour sessions of electronic teaching of the course of mathematics. Before conducting this study and after the end of the group teaching sessions, the Beaufort self-regulation questionnaire and the researcher-made questionnaire were administered on the students to determine the score of academic achievement in mathematics.Findings: The results showed that as compared to the students in the control group who did not receive this program, teaching the experimental group that received this program by using the electronic content had a significant impact leading to an increase in the self-regulation learning and academic achievement of the students in the experimental group in the course of mathematics (F=14/114, P
