Les principes de la recherche qualitative sont inté gré s dans le processus de cueillette etd’analyse de donné es . Les participantes ont mentionné que les plus grandsdéfis de l’apprentissage en ligne sont le manque d’interaction en vis à visainsi que la surcharge de travail. L’augmentation de la confiance et l’occasion de faire partie d’une collectivit é d’apprenants sont indiqué scomme des points forts de l’apprentissage en ligne . De plus, les participantes ont i ndiqué préférer l’apprentissage contextuel et expé rientiel ainsi que les milieux d’apprentissage qui favorisent la collaboration.
