TY - JOUR AB - Purpose– The purpose of this paper is to present two classes of distance learning experiments, with feedbacks. The experiments are based on constructivism theory.Design/methodology/approach– The paper adopts an experimental approach. Experiments are made with students. The assessments come from an analysis of questionnaires.Findings– The results show technical evaluations and pedagogical evaluations of the e‐learning platform.Research limitations/implications– There are functional improvements of the developed platform.Practical implications– There are technical improvements of the developed platform.Originality/value– This paper presents a student centered pedagogical approach supported by distant e‐learning platform.
