Event Details

This study provides a detailed picture of qualitatively different ways of conceptualizing online learning and academic success by the adult student population in the context of two higher education institutions.

Furthermore, it offers insights into the nature of these differences by showing their connection to the Self-Determination Theory and explaining the impact of the social context on how learning and success are experienced by adults.
