Abstract

The present study aimed to determine the effectiveness of mobile learning based on social networks on self-regulated learning strategies, academic well-being and achievement motivation of sixth grade elementary students in Marvast. The research method was quasi-experimental with pre-test-post-test design with control group and the statistical population included all sixth-grade elementary students in the city. The sample size consisted of 30 students who were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly assigned to experimental (n = 15) and control (n = 15) groups. The research tools for data collection were Hermans Progress Motivation Questionnaire (1970), Petrinen et al.'s Standard Academic Welfare Questionnaire (2014) and Pintrich and Grout (1990) Self-Regulated Learning Strategies Questionnaire. Students were taught mobile learning based on social networks, via mobile phones and virtual networks, in regular sessions twice a week. The results of examining the hypotheses through covariance analysis (significance level 0.05) showed that the hypotheses are significant. The results showed that mobile learning based on social networks is effective on self-regulation learning strategies, academic well-being, and motivation to improve the sixth-grade students in Marvast. Mobile learning based on social networks is a new approach in education that should be used.
