This study aims to measure the level of self-directed learning readiness of prospective science teacher students studying with blended learning. This study also investigates the relationship of self-directed learning readiness with students' perceptions of blended learning. This research uses a quantitative method involving 28 students of prospective science teachers in the mathematics faculty and natural sciences at Medan State University. Data were collected using a learning independence questionnaire, which was first validated by two learning experts. Measurement of learning independence is done after students undergo one semester of blended learning. In general, student learning independence is at a moderate level. Analysis based on gender shows that there are no statistically significant differences between men and women in learning independence. This study also revealed that differences in learning outcomes are influenced by the level of learning independence, especially in the "selfcontrol" aspect. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
