The OLSS is a reliable tool to assess and support students' motivation, self-control, digital literacy, and anxiety in online learning.
What it found
This study analyzed the Online Learning Strategies Scale (OLSS) among 520 university students to evaluate its reliability. The analysis confirmed that the scale successfully and consistently measures four critical dimensions of virtual study: motivation, self-control, internet literacy, and internet anxiety.
What it means for your work
Use the OLSS as a pre-course diagnostic tool to identify students' specific support needs before learning begins. Designers can then create targeted interventions, such as digital literacy tutorials or low-stakes introductory activities, to address low self-control or high anxiety.
