THE EFFECT OF USING E-PORTFOLIOS ON THE SELF-REGULATION SKILLS OF STUDENTS: A META-ANALYSIS STUDY

Abstract

The change of self-regulation skills, one of the variables determining success in education, with measurement and evaluation techniques in the education process has been the subject of many studies. However, each research result leads to different results due to the planned situation and limitations. For this reason, e-portfolios used in the education process were examined with a meta-analysis study to evaluate whether they were effective on students' self-regulation skills from a more general point of view. The research is limited to published academic studies written in Turkish and English between 2000 and 2023. When the criteria determined in the research were examined, only 19 studies were found by these criteria. Theoretically, when the effect sizes in each study were examined, a meta-analysis was carried out with the random effects model. The analyzes of the research were made with the CMA version 3 program. As a result of the research, it was concluded that using e-portfolios greatly and significantly affect students' self-regulation skills.
