    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2010) Karsenti, Thierry; Lourdes Lira, María
    The goal of this research is to better understand the impact of the implementation of a compulsory Web-based course on prospective teachers’ motivational profile. Subjects were enrolled in a four-year teacher education program (n = 429) in the province of Quebec (Canada).Our starting hypothesis was that the distance education, Web-based course put in place, with its nature promoting self-determination, feelings of competence and affiliation, would have a positive impact on the motivation of the prospective teachers.The results presented are drawn from both quantitative and qualitative data analysis. They highlight how, after a few weeks, prospective teachers’ motivation is eventually favored by this technologically-rich teaching environment.
