Abstract

 
 
 In the United States, educators have the opportunity to apply for National Board Certification (NBC), a rigorous process that awards them the highest recognition of teacher mastery and accomplishment in the nation. A core proposition of NBC, the management and monitoring of student learning, is strongly related to self-regulated learning (SRL) and the role of the teacher librarian (TL). This research investigates the differences and similarities between the application of SRL strategies in the teaching of two groups of TLs in the US: five with NBC and five without NBC. Using interviews and teaching observations, researchers found similar practice of SRL strategies by both groups in their teaching. However, in the interviews, the TLs with NBC were better able to articulate and provide context for how they teach students SRL strategies. These findings support research from other scholars regarding NBC (Johnson, 2009; Strong et al., 2007; Unrath, 2007).
