description The lack of autonomy of university students is a current problem in higher education, being considered a skill that students must acquire. To meet the objectives of higher education, students, especially those enrolled in bachelor’s degree programmes, must be assisted in achieving a greater capacity for self-regulation, for which teachers must find an effective balance between guidance and self-regulated learning. We worked with 39 undergraduate students of the Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education programme at the University of Salamanca (Spain) who were enrolled in a subject about school organisation, in the context of a hybrid learning mode due to the COVID-19 crisis. The pre-service teachers measured their progress weekly and self-assessed their performance in implementing the subject group work using a digitised rating scale through a questionnaire. The results showed that the students who best self-regulated their learning were more realistic in their self-assessment of their work, although they were not the highest achievers in some cases in terms of the final assessment of the assignment. In addition, the students valued the experience as positive, noting particularly that using the digital questionnaire to reflect on the quality of their work had helped them to improve the final assignment. Based on the results, teachers in the university where the study was implemented are considering continuing this practice and even applying it to other subjects, such as the Final Degree Project, where students have a more autonomous role in their learning and where good self-regulation can have very positive results.
