Paper Abstract:	In order to cope successfully with life-long learning it is necessary to be able to learn autonomously, effectively and efficiently, and to be aware of one’s motivations and needs. This entails becoming self-regulated learners. Based on a wide analysis of the literature, we worked out a methodological framework to devise practical activities implementing the control abilities generally accepted as the basis of self-regulation (control of cognition, behaviour, motivation and volition) and at the same time the key processes of the socio-cognitive approach (self-observation, self-evaluation, self-reaction), together with favourable context conditions. We experimented our methodological framework in a teacher preparation course aiming to foster abilities of self-regulated learning along with knowledge acquisition on ICT. This paper presents: our methodological framework, examples of the activities we worked out to implement it, considerations on the role of ICT to help structure a favourable environments, and comments on the obtained results.
