Abstract

As the Covid-19 pandemic changes student methods in the learning process, students are asked to help themselves to regulate their studying process. One of the internal factors that could influence the positive experience in independent learning (self-regulated learning) is character strengths. This research aims to examine the relationship of Character strengths to Self-Regulated learning that could support the online learning process of high school students in Makassar city. This research was conducted using a Cross-Sectional Survey Design with the VIA Youth-96-character strengths scale and self-regulated learning scale as measurement tools. The sample in this research is 37 high school students who are currently studying online and live in Makassar (76% female, 24% Male; 73% from Public Schools, 27% from Private Schools). Bivariate Pearson’ Correlation Analysis using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27 shows six characters strength significantly correlated with Self-Regulated Learning, that is Perseverance (R=.79, p <.001), Love of learning (R=.70, p <.001), Leadership (R=.70, p <.001), Perspective (R=.61, p <.001), Vitality (R=.57, p <.001), and Curiosity (R=.52, p<.001). Thus, those six characters strengths are assumed as essential internal factors that can increase students’ Self-Regulated Learning. Based on that, it can be concluded that Perseverance, Love of learning, Leadership, Perspective, Vitality, and Curiosity can support high school students in Makassar City in designing self-regulated learning that can help them online learning processes during the pandemic.
