Abstract
The results of the study also suggest possible variations in the learning strategies that students with different levels of SDL ability applied for learning IT in an online course. Cognitive learning strategies of metacognitive self-regulation, elaboration, and critical thinking appear as substantial factors in learning IT for students with SDL ability above the average. For students with SDL ability below the average, strategies of peer learning, rehearsal, and help seeking appear as more important factors in learning IT than the cognitive strategies.
