Why students' self-regulation is key towards the new normality?

Abstract:

The COVID19 pandemic caught everyone unprepared. The onsite education paradigm that seemed so stable was completely shaken. Here, we present the results of a study in which 620 university students adapted to online activities with a different degree of guidance in terms of deadlines. While results show a lack of self-regulations in both iterations, results show that students spend more time on activities with tighter deadlines and more strict instructions. In addition, a not inconsiderable number of students were affected by the lack of a personal computer or an adequate workspace what raises the need to consider those students during the design of assessment activities on such adverse conditions.
