Resumo

This contribution presents a distance learning model based on the traditional educational model that joins synchronous and asynchronous communication components. We also analyze the integration of the proposed model to teach a subject whose educational methodology is based on the resolution of practical exercises in a laboratory. This adaptation process is divided in two phases and in this paper we explain the tele-education tools used in both phases and how to take advantage of the specific characteristics of each toot to improve the learning. Finally, the results obtained during first implantation stage are exposed and we show the changes that will take place in order to reach the second phase.
