Abstract :
Self-regulated learning is an active field of research in pedagogy. Self-regulation techniques are being tested at several educational levels, including university degrees. One of the main problems found by the educators is that they need to monitor all their students constantly and thoroughly. This cannot be done properly if the number of students is not small, which happens specially at university levels. They need tools to address this problem and to be able to monitor their learning progress. We are developing a tool for self-regulated learners, to provide them support for their learning process using embedded learning strategies and tools to enable planning, monitoring and evaluation of their own learning process. Its functionalities have been extended in order to enable both the educators and the learners to monitor in depth their learning progress in order to improve their self-regulation skills. In this paper we present the monitoring system designed for this tool.
