TEACHING STRATEGIES FOR LEARNING FROM VIRTUAL CLASSROOMS CREATED ON THE MOODLE PLATFORM

The use of information and communication technologies in the creation of virtual learning environments, also called virtual classrooms, has determined new ways of teaching and learning, which differ significantly from the traditional ways used in the face-to-face mode. Among the most used technological systems for the creation of virtual classrooms is the MOODLE platform (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment), which offers multiple employment possibilities to ensure that the student can learn by himself, raise his prominence and their cognitive independence and creativity are favored.

However, having the platform installed and the required infrastructure is not a sufficient guarantee of effectiveness and quality in the learning process, since these tools only acquire didactic value when they are interpreted as mediating artifacts between the teacher and the student body. To achieve these endeavors, it is necessary for teachers to have sufficient preparation to be able to take full advantage of these technological potentialities and adapt them to the teaching-learning process, through the use of didactic strategies that promote student learning.

Precisely, this issue offers in its MONOGRAPHIC section, wide possibilities of presenting contributions that address good practices that in the didactic order allow to take advantage of the potential of the platform through research, innovations and experiences in relation to the aforementioned aspects.

We remind you that in this new stage of development of the journal, the section INVESTIGATION IN EDUCATION is added to its monographic section. This section will contain works that are detached from the subject of the journal and it is a possibility that is offered to the authors to publish the articles that have not found a place in the summoned topics; To be accepted for evaluation by experts, these works must comply with the structure regulated by the journal for this type of article.
