Öğrenme sürecinde güçlüklerle karşılaşan uzaktan öğrenenlerin başvurdukları destek kaynaklarından biri de akranlarıdır. Bilgi ve deneyim sahibi öğrenenlerin arkadaşlarına çeşitli konularda yardım etmesiyle gerçekleşen akran desteği, öğrenme deneyimini olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. Akran desteğinin öğrenenler arası etkileşim ve iş birliğinden doğduğunu söylemek mümkündür. Teknolojinin gelişmesi, öğrenenlerin etkileşim kanallarını zenginleştirmektedir. Uzaktan öğrenenler, gerekli gördükleri konular hakkında kendi ürettikleri içerikleri YouTube üzerinden yayınlayarak akranlarına destek olmaktadırlar. Bu çalışmanın amacı, uzaktan öğrenenlerin YouTube videolarında hangi stratejileri kullanarak akranlarına destek olduklarını keşfetmektir. Durum çalışması olarak desenlenen araştırma kapsamında, uzaktan öğrenenler tarafından üretilmiş ve en az 30 bin izlenme sayısına ulaşmış 10 video içerik analizi yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonunda uzaktan öğrenenlerin videolarında akranlarına destek olurken şu stratejilerden yararlandıkları tespit edilmiştir: Kişisel deneyimlerle anlatma, çalışma yöntemi önerme, konuşma dili kullanma, teşvik etme ve uygulamalı anlatma.
