Sources of Self-Efficacy:

1. Mastery Experience: Showing students that they can master a task such as an exam would increase their self-efficacy and prove to them that if they did it once then they can do it again. 2. Vicarious Experience: When students see something done in front of them, they would be more confident that they can do it themselves since they have already seen it being done and so they are familiar with how it should be done. 3. Social and Verbal Persuasion: Receiving praise from others plays a big role in re-enforcing the students belief in their ability to do something. The more they are told how good of a job they are doing the higher their self-efficacy would get. 4. Physiological and Affective States: When students are physical tired or if they are in a bad emotional state, their confidence level drops and they are less likely to believe in their ability to achieve the set task. 5. Invitational Construct The way we think about and talk to ourselves affects our self-efficacy. If a person keeps telling themself they cant do something then they will not be able to do it.

Self-Regulated Learning (SRL):

1. It is the process of taking control of and evaluating one's own learning and behaviour. 2. It is the ability of learners to control the factors or conditions affecting their learning. 3. Self-regulated learners believe that opportunities to take on challenging tasks, practice their learning, develop a deep understanding of subject matter, and exert effort will only help them achieve more academic success. 4. Self-Regulated learners hold incremental beliefs about intelligence and attribute their successes or failures to factors within their control. 5. Both motivation and control are essential for a Self-Regulated Learner as they are what drive him/her to face difficulties and achieve their goals. 6. Self-Regulated learning should be used in three different phases of learning: a. During the initial learning. b. When troubleshooting a problem encountered during learning. c. When learners are trying to teach others.
