Background and Purpose: Students' ability to self-regulate their learning and to learn effectively are predictors of success. In developing and initiating Self-Regulated Learning (SRL), teachers play a significant role. Hence, this study aims at exploring teacher management of SRL in the ESL writing classroom using ePortfolio. Methodology: This study adopts an interpretive paradigm with action research as its methodological approach. The data collection methods consisted of observation, documents, and interview. A total of one teacher and 16 of her students participated in this study. The data were analyzed thematically. Findings: In using the ePortfolio, the teacher had managed to assist learners SRL development by employing several strategies. It was identified that the teacher used strategies such as setting the learning goals, sharing the criteria of success, questioning techniques, giving feedback, as well as allowing self-assessment activity to take place. These strategies were believed to promote the constructs of independent learning, autonomous learning, and assistance from a more capable peers particularly in learning ESL writing via ePortfolio. Also, a shift in a teacher's role from being authoritative in the classroom to a facilitative role is deemed necessary in developing SRL among ESL writing students. Contributions: The results from this study offer new insights into pedagogical strategies that could be considered for promoting SRL in language teaching and learning. An outcome of this research could serve as a guide for teachers in planning their pedagogical approach and to decide on suitable strategies to be employed for different types of learners. Also, the sharing of the teacher practices in this study would provide rooms for other researchers to further explore other possible strategies and ways for strengthening any weaknesses found in the practice.
