Abstract
For master’s degree students, self-regulated learning research is limited, even though the number of online learners has exploded in recent years, especially after the international COVID-19 pandemic. This study investigated the effect of a self-regulated learning guide to help students act somewhat more autonomously. To collect the data, a self-regulated learning guide along with a questionnaire and an achievement test was used. Forty master’s degree students (20 students in each group) participated in this study; they were distributed into two groups (A and B). Group A attended online classes with their instructor, while Group B students attended online classes and received the learning guide to help them pinpoint specific strategies in the given learning context. This paper presents the results obtained from the questionnaire distributed to the students and their end-of-course test results by comparing estimated with the actual performance scores. The study concluded that providing students with a learning guide helps them regulate their learning effectively.

Among the courses taught to master degree students is research methods; it is an introductory course that offers students the gears required to ask and answer queries and evaluate and build knowledge. e interest of such a course is to enable future graduates to understand better how to research so that they can more use the research methods to solve educational problems. e objective of this course is, on the one hand, to familiarize students with the use of online learning and, on the other hand, to help them to start learning research methods. e student will have to learn to find the solution of a problem using research type form and learn how to design research papers in a structured manner
Summary
Technology is developing rapidly at all levels of university student’s life. The latter is found in a situation of relative passivity that leaves little room for initiative [1]. E student has the role of the receiver during most of the online classes. Overall, he must acquire the teacher’s input and revise it to pass the exam. He must acquire the teacher’s input and revise it to pass the exam In this way, learning usually stops when one graduates from college. One of the significant functions of education is the development of learning skills in the student throughout one’s working life. Researchers have clearly shown that students who are self-regulated in their learning have the ability to self-determine strategies for learning to perform their tasks in an increasingly satisfying manner [3,4,5,6]
