Distance learning has become an attractive pathway for stakeholders in the field of higher education. It promotes affordability, convenience, and accessibility for many students who wish to pursue post-secondary education (Allen & Seaman, 2008; Travers, 2016). Therefore, many non-traditional students gravitate towards fully online programs at community colleges. A growing number of students enrolled in fully online courses at community colleges are second language (L2) learners who are not fully prepared for college level work and struggle in writing courses (Clausen, 2017; Fernandez, Peyton, & Schaetzel, 2017; Flynn, 2016; Kim & Diaz, 2013). A three-dimensional narrative inquiry was conducted to capture the temporal, spatial, and interactional factors that influence the learning experiences of L2 learners who have completed fully online composition courses in community colleges across Southeastern Florida. Six semi-structured interviews were audio recorded and transcribed. Delve Tools software was used to organize the data. The researcher was able to unearth four major themes and four subthemes relating to context, social encounters, and sequential experiences as well as narratives that reflected the participants' lived experiences. The findings of the study revealed that collaborative settings, continuous feedback, embedded tutors, instructional scaffolding, etc. contributed tremendously to L2 learners' language and writing development in fully online college courses. The findings also aligned with previous literature on integrating culturally sensitive pedagogy in learning environments. These findings may prove useful to community college online programs, faculty, and instructional designers to inform strategic goals to improve writing performance of L2 learners taking fully online composition classes.
