Produção de material didático na educação à distância (EAD): o desafio da inovação frente às exigências da demanda Universidade Federal do Ceará- Universidade Aberta do Brasil – UFC/UAB

Abstract

This paper aims to present the dynamics of the production of teaching materials for distance undergraduate courses at UFC / UAB, produced in the academic core of Instituto Universidade Virtual. The theoretical assumptions we were based upon to walk the paths that served asfoundation were found in Levy (2000) on cyber culture. Kenski (2007), on the other hand, forwards us to new information and communication technologies.Fillatro (2008) discusses the instructional design which is the basis for producing the material. The development of the research took place in three stages: a) reading material related to the theme; b) research with members of the working group, and c) direct contact with the actual production of educational material since the initial moment. In other words, the receiving of the content until the final version, ie, the class ready, which is offered in the nine undergraduate courses in blended mode.
