The research question focuses on what students perceive as influencing learning in an evidence-informed leadership setting. Data were gathered through focus groups at the end of one semester with 12 students, and reflexive thematic analysis was used to interpret responses. Reported influences include course design and learning activities, instructor behaviours, peer interactions, project work, and student agency. Results describe the course as a valuable social learning space and suggest improvements for leadership learning in kinesiology and related higher-education

The research question driving this study was: What do students feel influences learning in this evidence-informed leadership course? We collected and analyzed 12 students’perspectives on their learning experiences over one semester by conducting focus groups at the end of term. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to interpret and analyze responses. The influences on student learning shared by participants in this research included course design and learning activities, instructor behaviours, peers, project work, and student agency. The course was described as a valuable social learning space. Findings may be applied to improve leadership learning in kinesiology and similar disciplines in higher education.  \nL’objectif de cette étude était d’explorer et d’évaluer l’apprentissage dans un cours de leadership au niveau du premier cycle dans une faculté de kinésiologie. La question de recherche qui a motivé cette étude était la suivante : selon les étudiants et les étudiantes, qu’est-ce qui influence l’apprentissagedans ce cours de leadership fondé sur des données probantes? Nous avons recueilli et analysé les perspectives de 12 étudiants et étudiantes sur leurs expériences d’apprentissage au cours d’un semestre en organisant des groupes de discussion à la fin du semestre. Nous avons utilisé l’analyse thématique réflective pour interpréter et analyser les réponses. Les influences sur l’apprentissage des étudiants et des étudiantes, telles que partagées par les participants et les participantes à cette recherche, comprennent : la conception du cours et les activités d’apprentissage, le comportement desenseignants et des enseignantes, les pairs, le travail sur un projet et l’agence des étudiants et des étudiantes. Le cours a été décrit comme étant un espace d’apprentissage social utile. Les résultatspeuvent être appliqués pour améliorer l’apprentissage du leadership en kinésiologie ainsi que dansd’autres disciplines semblables dans l’enseignement supérieur.  \nKeywords  \nstudent agency, instructor behaviours, social learning spaces, transformational leadership, projectbased learning, undergraduate kinesiology students; agence des étudiants et des étudiantes, comportement des enseignants et des enseignantes, espaces d’apprentissage social, leadership transformationnel, apprentissage basé sur un projet, étudiants et étudiantes en kinésiologie au niveau du premier cycle  \nThis research paper/Rapport de recherche is available in The Canadian Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning:  \n[https://doi.org/10.5206/cjsotl-rcacea.2020.2.10734](https://doi.org/10.5206/cjsotl-rcacea.2020.2.10734)  \nContext  \nThe origin of this research project was our shared interest in how leadership learning is facilitated.
