Abstract (2. Language): 
Different theories try to explain why some students are more successful than the others. Phenomenologists (Mc Combs, 1989) study self concepts of the students and find such students prone to achieve more. Attributional Theorists (Dweck, 1986) focus on personal outcome such as effort or ability. Metacognitive theorists (Pressley, 1990) examine students' self regulated learning strategies whereas Constructivists (Paris & Byrnes,1989) believe supportive environments are important to be successful. In this paper, the metacognitive theory will be given more importance.
