Abstract

The dissemination of the web resources as cognitive tools at distance learning has been fostered a discussion about the aspects that support the educational proposals in virtual environments, the role of students and teachers as well as the pedagogical challenges faced by these actors in the new distance learning context on health. Taking as assumptions that the implementation and appropriation of the information and communication technologies depends on the interrelation between the individuals, socials and organizational characteristics, the aim of this work is to discuss some pedagogical challenges underlying the conception of virtual learning environments as the specification of its actors immerse in an interactive and inter rational process, pointing out some factors that could influence the success of the experiences in on-line learning for health professionals.
