The world witnessed a growing interest in inquiry-based learning in the past decade. Study and research path (SRP) is a model of such learning based on the anthropological theory of the didactic (ATD). This paper discusses the following research questions through [Formula: see text] maps of the SRPs of university freshmen using the notion of praxeology: (RQ1) how do students/pre-service teachers create SRPs in an online environment in terms of group work? (RQ2) How are the institutional conditions and constraints of each group characterized? In conclusions, the differences in media searches of the student groups lead to differences in final answers to the inquiry. Additionally, the media-milieu dialectic is closely related to the question–answer dialectic.
