The data were studied from a mixed methodology approach with a parallel convergent design. The results highlight the interactivity of the participants in knowledge networks, together with the adoption of search strategies for selecting relevant information, they are crucial to facilitate the connection of learning. It is intended that this study provides instructional guidelines on the implementation of virtual learning environments.
