La Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Educación, la Ciencia y la Cultura (UNESCO), desde 1948, destaca la importancia del aprendizaje de una segunda lengua debido a las potencialidades que supone a nivel profesional, académico, social, cultural e incluso personal. Entendiendo que se avanza a una sociedad tecnológica, los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje rompen los esquemas tradicionales e incorporan entornos virtuales de aprendizaje que permiten la aplicación de tecnologías. Al aprender una lengua extranjera, se tiende a “traspasar” de alguna manera el conocimiento sobre las estructuras y rasgos de la lengua materna. A esta influencia de la lengua materna sobre la lengua extranjera se llama “transferencia” que en muchas ocasiones obstaculiza la producción en esta segunda lengua. El propósito de ésta investigación es describir una estrategia empleada para el aprovechamiento del entorno virtual en el aprendizaje de los módulos de inglés con el uso de la plataforma Moodle para los 114 estudiantes de Ciencias de la Salud y Ciencias de la Ingeniería, considerados parte de la generación “Y”, a través de un estudio de caso único, factual e intrínseco, teniendo un nivel descriptivo, heurístico e inductivo. Los resultados de la investigación determinaron que con el uso del entorno virtual a través de una estrategia el aprendizaje de una segunda lengua presenta mayores oportunidades ya que docente y alumnos pueden estar separados con respecto a la sincronía y esto no es obstáculo para que el aprendizaje se lleve a cabo con éxito, esta herramienta de apoyo ayuda a sellar el conocimiento adquirido para luego perfeccionarlo con la práctica.   Palabras clave: Entorno virtual de aprendizaje, Inglés, Proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, TIC   ABSTRACT   The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has highlighted since 1948 the importance of learning a second language because of its professional, social, cultural, academic, and even personal potentials. Understanding that it moves towards a technological society, the processes of teaching and learning break the traditional schemes and incorporate new virtual learning environments that allow the implementation of technologies. By learning a foreign language, it tends to “pass” in somehow the knowledge about the structures and features of the mother tongue into the foreign language. This influence of the mother tongue on the foreign language is called “transfer” which often impedes production in the second language. The purpose of this research is to create a virtual learning environment in the English modules using Moodle for 114 UNEMI students of Health and Engineering Sciences, who are considered part of the generation “Y” through a single, factual and intrinsic case study, with a descriptive, heuristic and inductive level. The results of this research determined that the use of ICT tools when learning a second language presents greater opportunities for the teacher and students because they both can be separated with respect to the synchrony and this is not an obstacle, so learning is conducted with success; this support tool helps the acquired knowledge to become perfect with practice.   Key words: Virtual Learning Environment, English, teaching-learning process, ICT   Recibido: febrero de 2015Aprobado: abril de 2015

This study aimed to: develop and evaluate a Virtual Learning Environment in the theme administering medications in a professional nursing course in Curitiba/PR, Brazil. The program's elaboration was divided in three phases: 1- Virtual Learning Environment development Guide. Phase 2, corresponded to implementation and assessment of its use. Phase 3, learning Evaluation. The program evaluations demonstrate that it is in accordance to the educational goals intended to develop and implement an educational technology. The assessment on learning showed that the students answered correctly 85% of the questions discussed. The possibility of elaborating new educational technologies can be helpful in the teaching/learning process, as well as in the development of future nursing professionals.

Este estudo explora a influência das Tecnologias da Informação e da Comunicação (TIC) no curso de Licenciatura em Pedagogia da Universidade Aberta do Brasil (UAB) da Universidade Federal de Alagoas (UFAL) na formação de ensino superior a distância, bem como descreve sua trajetória e o impacto para o aluno na inserção das TIC. Analisamos o processo de adaptação do sujeito no uso das TIC no curso de Pedagogia da UAB/UFAL no período de setembro de 2007 a março de 2012. Para dar conta dos nossos propósitos, foram aplicados questionários fechados com os alunos do curso dos polos de Maceió, Maragogi, Olho d’Água das Flores e Santana do Ipanema, em Alagoas, do sistema UAB. Com os resultados constatou-se que as tecnologias básicas como os computadores e seus periféricos, o Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem (AVA), denominado Moodle e internet, influenciaram no primeiro e segundo período do curso de Pedagogia, gerando angústias e desafios. Nos primeiros momentos diante das máquinas, nas TIC que dão apoio à Educação à distância (EAD), surgiram inseguranças, receios e falta de estímulo para dar continuidade ao curso. Mas, para aqueles que permaneceram, observamos avanços tanto no curso como no uso das ferramentas. Palavras-chave: Ambiente virtual de aprendizagem. Dificuldades do aluno da EAD. Ensino-aprendizagem.  ABSTRACT This study explores the influence of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) at the Pedagogy Graduation Course of Universidade Aberta do Brasil (Brazil Open University) (UAB) from Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL) on distance higher education, as well, it describes its way and impact on the students at the ICT insertion. We analyzed the subject’s adaptation process to the usage of the ICT at the Pedagogy Course of the UAB/UFAL in the period from September 2007 to March 2012. To achieve our purposes, closed questionnaires were applied to the students from the Maceió, Maragogí, Olho D’água das Flores and Santana do Ipanema centers in Alagoas, from UAB system. With the results, it was noticed that the basic technologies like the computer and its hardware, the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) named Moodle and internet influenced at the first and the second period of the pedagogy course, generating anxieties and challenges. At the first moments, in front of the machines, at the ICT which gives support to the Distance Education (EAD), insecurities, fears and lack of stimulus have appeared. But, to those who remained, we observed improvement on the course as well on the use of its tools. Keywords: Virtual Learning Environment. Student’s difficulty on the EAD. Teaching-learning.

A virtual learning environment is conceived as an interaction space that ease the realization of mediated activities by technology, in this case the internet; besides using multimedia materials, learning objects, social networks, among others; which have changed imminently the traditional education. In this article an instrument is proposed in a checklist format, to evaluate any platform that has interaction spaces such as a Virtual Learning Environment, in this case responding to four spaces or general indicators: information Space, Mediation / Interaction Space, Instructional Design Space and Exhibition Space. Criteria are used according to the interactions and activities carried out by the consultant and virtual student. These, in turn, come up from the analysis and interaction of the advisers achieved in the discussion forums and portfolio activities through collaborative work. It was situated as a qualitative research, with a descriptive nature since it is not limited to data collection only, but also it refers and analyzes the interaction of the advisers achieved in the discussion forums and portfolio activities through the collaborative work of the workshop course "Virtual Learning Environments" developed in a virtual learning environment.
