| Abstract: | The categorization for task difficulty resulted in 86 learning sessions where learners perceived the collaborative task as more difficult after completing the task and 166 learning sessions where learners perceived the collaborative task as less difficult after completing the task. Task understanding draws on learners' task perceptions, including subjective factors of the individual student (e.g. prior knowledge) as well as external factors of the assigned task, such as task complexity. Winne & Hadwin ([67]) define these as students' perceptions of task understanding and perceptions of task difficulty, which are a part of internal metacognitive conditions that determine how students approach tasks. The categorization for task understanding resulted in 98 learning sessions where students' task understanding was lower after completing the task and 176 learning sessions where students' task understanding was higher after completing the learning task.
