Formación en Tutorías Virtuales Estructura de planificación de curso

Abstract

The purpose of virtual education or e-Learning is to promote the development of independent study. In this environment the virtual tutor is a guide for the student learning alone and without the presence of the teacher. Training for tutors is a challenging experience that requires interest, discipline, responsibility, research and application of knowledge, cognitive readjustment, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and which generates waves of satisfaction. Therefore it is an Innovative Learning Model and a starting point for generating knowledge.This paper discloses the wonderful learning experience of spending twelve weeks on the Educational Portal of the Americas to train as a virtual tutor supported by the contents of the course: Quality Basic Education for the implementation of practices and simulations. The projection of the training course as a tutor trainee contemplates three ideas central to the appropriation of the philosophy of educational quality. Benefits provided to the academic development of participants in this process of training are reflexively interacting with professionals from various disciplines and various other Latin American contexts, and concludes with an evaluation of the course, generating interlearning e-Learning environments.
