Resumen

This article aimed to briefly report a self-study methodology experience performed in the International Dental Degree Program (IDDP) in a University in Canada. This approach fostered students` self-regulated learning. Due to Covid-19 pandemic the on-site dentistry school classes were discontinued. Students from the IDDP were allowed to go to on-site only to perform pre-clinical activities (supervised by one faculty member at a time). As the 2020 class of the IDDP program was small (2 students), the director of the IDDP Program and faculty members considered that self-study would be an appropriate idea.  We noticed that students were successful in self-regulating their learning. Some of the examples for that were: students used note-taking sheets, monitored their comprehension of class lecture material, asked questions etc. The experience with IDDP students showed that the self-study opportunity was a favorable learning environment for the teaching of pre-clinical disciplines.
