Zimmerman, Bonner, and Kovach first outline key principles of self-regulated learning (SRL), then present five-week curricula models, part of regular classroom assignments, that teachers can use to help students develop each five key study skills. These skills are time planning and management, text comprehension, classroom note-taking, test anticipation and preparation, and writing.
