While the number of students enrolled in online courses at American colleges and universities continues to increase, negative perceptions among instructors, administrators, and prospective students persist. Retention rates for online courses lag those of face-to-face courses; yet, when students have a positive experience with online learning and complete the course, they report an improved perception of quality of the modality. This dissertation steps into this gap between quantity and quality of online learning experiences by examining the perceptions of adult students enrolled in an online course that was intentionally designed to enhance their intrinsic motivation. Deci and Ryan's Self-Determination Theory guided the exploration of five participant perspectives in an online, graduate-level accounting course at a small liberal arts university in the Northeastern United States. An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPS) approach was used to gain an in-depth examination of the individual complexities of each student and their individual contexts. Through two cycles of inductive and deductive coding, emerging themes affirmed that the formative assessments and collaborative learning strategies employed in the course supported the students' intrinsic motivation to succeed. Conversely, the participants shared feeling demotivated by a lack of choice in collaborative work, heavy workloads, unclear grading schemes, delayed feedback, and personal conflicts with fellow learners. Finally, they shared how their own personal traits and characteristics impacted their motivation to succeed in the course above and beyond any aspect of the course design itself. The study concludes that SDT can inform the design of online learning experiences that support intrinsic motivation for students that come to the course with a high internal locus of control. Limitations and implications for future research are discussed.
