Abstract

Students can monitor and regulate their motivation to learn - self-regulation of motivation (SRM) - and this process has a positive impact on achievement. In this paper, we analyze the SRM process with middle school students, through three studies. On the first, it will be evaluated determinants of SRM (e.g. expectancies, goals and values) and SRM strategies. In the second, we will analyze through two focus group teacher's perceptions about the most effective educational practices to promote SRM. From these, in the third study, will be designed a classroom program directed to the stimulation and development of strategies for SRM.
