Designed to promote students' learning self-regulation, "Testas' (Mis)adventures" is an intervention
project consisting of five narrative books and one manual with the theoretical framework and working
guidelines for teachers and parents. Testas' narratives introduce an embedded self-regulated learning
model, which provides an opportunity to discuss a learning strategies repertoire. The ability of students to
relate to Testas' study problems, enables them to understand the leading role of learning strategies in the
achievement of academic goals. Some educational advantages of this tool are highlighted and discussed.
