Abstract
The massive spread of COVID 19 has disrupted the entire system of human life, including the education system. The policy decided by the Indonesian government regarding the learning process must be based online and the university's quick response by taking the initiative to use virtual classroom-based learning. However, with virtual classroom-based learning, independence is the main keyword for the success of student learning processes. The implementation of the virtual classroom-based learning process is based on constructivism theory. Student's initial knowledge becomes important in constructivist classes in achieving learning goals. This research is pre-experimental research with one shoot case study design. Determination of the research sample by purposive sampling technique with a sample size of 33 students of mathematics teacher candidates at Majalengka University. The statistical analysis used was Anova one path. The results showed that the scale of self-regulated learning for mathematics teacher candidates differed significantly based on initial knowledge categories (high, medium, and low). This study concludes that initial knowledge is an important part of student success in virtual classroom-based learning.

Summary
The COVID-19 pandemic destroyed all social life, making billions of people live in their homes in global 'lock down', to reduce the spread of deadly diseases. The COVID19 pandemic has changed the lives of students at various levels of education (Daniel, 2020). Various methods were used to decide the spread of the COVID-19 Pandemic, one of which was the Indonesian government issued a policy for each level of education to carry out the learning process at home. It is a challenge for lecturers to organize online-based learning and the goals of face-to-face learning must be well achieved. The majority of literature that studies distance learning explains the success of students in achieving learning goals (Merchant et al, 2014; Schmid et al, 2009). When going to make decisions related to technology integration in the learning process lecturers must think carefully and precisely the learning material that follows the needs of students
