It is a systematic process where the student learning is not only monitored by the teacher but it is also involved the student decisions about their own abilities. It is a process where the monitor and the student working together, improve their knowledge and discover new strategies to achieve the goals.
In this definition, there are the following four key elements:

2) The teacher involved the student decisions about their own abilities
3) The monitor and the student improve their knowledge and discover new strategies

1) Systematic process: To work according to a fixed objective methodically in a period of time, it is also associated with a critical thinking which is very significant for students in general.
2) The teacher involved the student decisions about their own abilities: Students feel free to assess themselves in the process of learning according their own abilities and they also became involve in decision making in activities that affect themselves and their peers.
3) The monitor and the student improve their knowledge and discover new strategies: The teacher and the student working together within the learning process are able to recognize their shortcomings and errors through critical thinking and then they are able to design a new plan to achieve a particular aim.
4) The monitor and the student achieve the goals: The result of a motivated team work between the teacher and the students is the aim or the desired answer they were expecting.
