Abstract—Nowadays, undergraduate students have to
change from on-site classroom learning to online learning; hence,
building self-managerial skills is essential to their success in
online learning. The goal of this study was to investigate the
impact of various factors on undergraduate students’
self-managerial skills in online learning. A questionnaire was
designed and distributed directly to respondents via the online
system, and 1,057 valid responses were collected and evaluated.
In this study, the data were analyzed using exploratory factor
analysis (EFA) and multiple regression techniques. The current
findings revealed that self-appraisal (SA), planning skills (PSSP),
organizing skills (PSSO), evaluating skills (PSSE), and
interpersonal skills (IPS) had effects on self-managerial skills
(SMS) of undergraduate students in Thailand. This study has a
benefit for professors or lecturers who must design and build
modern online classroom through an online learning
management system that enhances the competency of
undergraduate students’ self-management skills and prepares
them for future careers.
