A self-regulated student is guided by task-oriented strategies, seeks to achieve his personal goals, and monitors his or her behavior in terms of his goals. This paper presents the results of a quantitative study whose purpose was to describe the components of self-regulated learning used by students in their online learning processes and to determine if there are significant differences in the way that these components are used. In this investigation, a questionnaire was applied to 306 students of online courses, and the data obtained were processed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA of one factor of repeated measures. The results showed that most of the factors and strategies of self-regulates learning are used in an acceptable way; in addition, significant differenceswere found of the motivational component and in the strategies of the behavioral and contextual component. The findings of the study provide instructional designers with information on the aspects that can be emphasizes to motivate students, which would contribute to the development of different types of skills and methods to self-regulate their learning, training that will allow them to advance more successfully through their education, regardless of the modality in which they work.
