The aim of the present study is to reveal the self-regulated learning levels of pre-service teacher and to determine whether these levels change in terms of their gender and class. The sample of the study consists of Aksaray University Educational Sciences Department students who received online education due to the COVID-19 global epidemic in the 2020-2021 academic year. The data of the study were collected with the “Self-Regulation in Self-Paced Open and Distance Learning Environments Scale.” The first result of the study revealed that the self-regulated learning levels of the participants were close to medium. The self-regulation scores of male students receiving online education at university were also found to be significantly higher than the scores of female students. The final result obtained from the research is the existence of a significant difference between grade level and self-regulated learning skills.
