The present paper aims to draw attention to a model of streamlining academic learning. The model is based on a holistic approach to learning, taking into account the following directions: a) boosting the student's motivation for undertaking responsibility and engagement in the learning process; b) training and development of cognitive and metacognitive abilities; c) learning through situated parctice and cooperation. The motivational dimension is deeply involved in the learning activity, success being engendered not by constraints, but by the stimulation and maintenance of the intrinsic motivation, of the mindset, of the responsible attitude. The proposed model is intended to be a starting point in the direction of developing students' competence to learn autonomously, with the training (meta) cognitive skills and motivational-attitudinal support at the core of this approach
