REFERENTS FOR LEARNING REGULATING FROM THE SELF-REGULATED LEARNING PERSPECTIVE

The concept of self-regulated learning has emerged during the last years generating an investigation line which tries to join the knowlege and investigation on cognitive, affective-motivational and learning environment variables. This construct, althought being under a process of definition and explanation, can provide a good theoretical basis for the understanding and evaluation of students' learning process. In this way, we try to underline the main features which in the near future will lead us to the elaboration of resources for its evaluation. Thus, in this work we present its main characteristics, components, current investigation lines and instruments near its evaluation. All in all, we try to help students development, in educational centres, of what traditionally has been called "learning to learn".
