%X This experimental research aims at studying the effects of different modalities of tutor¡¯s online interventions (MiT) on the learning outcomes of one hundred students involved in a cooperative learning setting (in groups of three). These modalities were elaborated by considering the dimensions of intervention which participate in tutorial accompaniment i.e. on a pedagogical (P), socio-emotional (S) and organizational (O) level. In addition to these three MiT focusing in turn on the specific dimension, S, O or P, two further non-specific modes of intervention were inserted as reference modalities: one reactive MiT and one proactive MiT. Since the results have indicated a contrasting impact of the different modalities of interventions, we shall attempt to determine their specificity as well as to understand the idiosyncratic models of intervention of each tutor
