EDUCAÇÃO A DISTÂNCIA NO ENSINO SUPERIOR: uma possibilidade concreta de inclusão social

Abstract

At this article we discuss the social inclusion and the Distance Superior Education. To do that, we start with some Distance Education definitions; then, we show a brief description of the Distance Education, its legal bases in Brazil and its indicators of quality; at least, we present some models used at the Distance Superior Education, emphasizing how a private University Institution which offers Distance Graduation Courses contributes to the social inclusion.
