INNOVATIVE SELF-MONITORING 2
Tweets, Texts, and Tablets: The Emergence of Technology-Based Self-Monitoring
“Children who exhibit challenging behaviours at school are considered at increased risk of
academic failure, delinquency, dropping out, gang membership, and adult incarceration”
(Dunlap, 2006, p.14). Behavioral difficulties are becoming more and more prevalent, violent, and
destructive. Learners worldwide do not own the proper and precise self-regulation expertise to
improve in a positive manner. To ensure management and motivate students to own their
education, self-monitoring has become a vital and effective strategy. Despite the traditional use
of pen and paper to keep track of self-regulation, the remarkable innovation of technology has
brought about a fundamental revolution in this technique according to the article.
Self-monitoring is a low-intensity, secondary prevention strategy generated to improve
students' self-management skills and support their academic, behavioral, and social development.
