Notwithstanding, many contemporary online programs have been blindly implemented with neither knowledge-driven aims nor an online learning-purposely designed methodology. The present study aimed to characterize, contrast, and consolidate stakeholders’ perceptions about elements associated with effective online learning, as well as the role of 21st-century skills in online learning programs. The study used a mixed methods research design, with data collection instruments that include 3 extensive questionnaires, backed up with documentary analysis. Results comprised a set of particular elements to be incorporated in contemporary online programs, alongside an exploration of the roles that online stakeholders acquire as they partake. Moreover, a characterization of the necessary 21st-century skills in online learning environments has been presented. %I Universidad de La Sabana %T Technologically mediated course design for contemporary university learners: accounting for stakeholders’ voices %~ Intellectum
