FLORES K., Eduardo. Finding the “virtual” professor. Results of a Research/Action Project. RMIE [online]. 2006, vol.11, n.28, pp.91-128. ISSN 1405-6666.
This article presents the results of an action research project carried out from 1999 to 2002, to determine if differences existed between the work of a classroom teacher and a teacher who taught a course “on line” (virtual teacher). Changes were made in three online courses offered during seven academic semesters, and the effects on teaching work were recorded. The results suggest that important differences exist between the two types of work, specifically the form of communicating with students (letter writing) and the relation with other teachers and specialists (holographic teaching). These differences are described, along with the implications for future research and teaching mediated by technology.
