Reinforcing Telepresence in Research Training with Learning Communities: Remote Collaboration between Student-Researchers

We propose to focus on the challenges raised by the fulfillment of graduate research work (that is to say, masters in Quebec or master 2 in Europe) and to problematize the perspective of collaboration between student-researchers in learning communities by shedding light on the multidimensional approach to the concept of distance proposed by Jacquinot (1993), and to then present the difficulties that pedagogical distance can induce and the way research has addressed the issue of creating presence as an attempt to reduce this distance.
