Those students were in the Postdegree and Master in Educational Informatic; both careers depend on the Distance University’s Education Faculty, from Spain.The informatic tele-processing gives a new work’s dimension. The users can interchange information through communication nets, allowing them not only an independent treatment of information but also people’s communication.It’s analized an experience about almost two hundreds of students, who were distributed on almost 2.800.000 km2, all of them working with more actual and strong communication–tools, such as e-mail and Internet.
