The inherent structure of the flipped classroom supports a learning environment that promotes students' self-regulated learning. In this article, we focus on how a learning management system (LMS), in this case BrightSpace D2L, plays a key role in supporting all aspects of the flipped classroom. We discuss how preclass assignments help students give their learning some forethought and plan accordingly; frequent formative assessments and feedback permit students to monitor their progress in the classroom; students control what study resources they choose to use; and students have ample opportunities to reflect regularly on their work. Further, we explore how learning logs (a form of reflective writing), with the LMS Journaling and Dropbox features, are used to keep track of students' journal entries as well as demonstrate how college instructors have used an LMS to motivate and encourage students to develop self-regulated learning. A qualitative analysis of students' writing is provided to illustrate gains in self-regulation.
