Il arrive fréquemment que des organisations mettant au point une offre e-learning ou blended learning fassent l’impasse sur le dimensionnement des services tutoraux à offrir à leurs futurs apprenants à distance. Focalisés sur les aspects techniques de leurs dispositifs, elles consacrent toute leur énergie, leur temps et leurs moyens financiers à la mise au point de LMS et à la production des ressources multi-médiatisées de formation. Le résultat est presque toujours identique et se révèle bien en-deçà des objectifs visés : les apprenants, laissés à eux-mêmes et à l’injonction d’autonomie qui leur est faite, peinent à trouver la motivation, à mobiliser leurs compétences d’apprenant, à choisir les stratégies d’apprentissage adéquates.
