26. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin Teacher’s Roll

27. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin Important considerations to be made before defining the teachers roll First: the systems of formation based on tools and technological resources must promote the active participation between participants (students) and training (professors) Second: the formation in line needs pedagogical models oriented to promote a process of learning that combines the flexibility, with a programming very a well structured planning Third: One is due to count on opened routes of communication and interchange, which will facilitate the creation of surroundings that promote the construction of the knowledge. Fourth: The virtual formation is not as simple as to limit to us to include all the material of a course in the Web, allowing to the student to accede to the same one through Internet. Most important and complicated simultaneously, it is to find a suitable combination and interactive application of the resources and tools that can be used in this new means.

28. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin Of all the previous, one must be conscious that time will be dedicated to the formation of the teacher in charge of the course Of the previous thing the importance is inferred of preparing to the train the person in charge to organize, to moderate and to direct debate groups, as much at level of group as at individual level, without forgetting the importance of developing its capacity to maintain the suitable level of enthusiasm and interest on the part of the group Additionally, the capacity of communication of the professor will be essential to ensure the success of a virtual course. This quality, along with its ability to manage and to organize all the resources available to reach and to organize a program of virtual formation will be what consequently assures the good yield the pupils and the success of the formative program.

29. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin Starting off of the previous thing we can emphasize the following characteristics or rolls of the online teacher “Facilitator”: the teacher must act as a guide, facilitating to the participants all the tools necessary to advance in their process of learning “Course Administrator” capacity to manage, to control and to organize, the participation in the different activities like conferences, forums, etc. To maintain updated all the technological resources of the course, materials, activities, etc

30. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin "expert of the basic resources and services of Internet" to know the systems for search information, resources available and possible uses and applications oriented to the formation process that is being carried out at every moment. "organizing and planning" it will have to count on the capacity to organize and to define clearly the objectives of the course, as well as the structure of the content, assigning the practical work and create more interactive activities. When speaking of planning one will be due to count on the capacity to assign and to calculate times to the different tasks that are defined

31. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin “technician”, but not in the strict sense of the word, but hoping that the facilitator has the capacity to be able to solve general and basic aspects and problems of technical type or use of the resources that can have assigned for the participant of the course. The technical problems have to be solved by a computer science technician who can offer support and support to the facilitator throughout the formative process. “socializing”, capacity to create favorable surroundings of learning, to animate, to motivate and, therefore to facilitate the interchange between all the participants of the course. An aspect which we must stand out is the formation through Internet is the capacity that a professor must have to express itself through the keyboard. Therefore an essential characteristic is the writing ability

32. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin Student’s Roll

33. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin The independent study involves the student in the decision making on the space and the time of the learning, the identification of its own necessities and the atmosphere self-instruction in which it does not count on the physical presence of the professor. In the non-actual models (at distance or virtual), the most distinguishing characteristic in terms of the student, is that this one must have greater responsibility than in the modality of traditional type. The student must form an affluent idea clear of the goals that persecutes with the independent study and choose the program, means, and the appropriate strategies of learning to obtain these proposed objectives.

34. Template Developed by Jose A. Fortin In general, the student in line must fulfill the following characteristics. Have self motivation and self discipline Able to communicate through writing Be willing to ask for help if encounters problems To fulfill the minimum requirements of the program To accept the critical thought and the decision making like integral part of the educative process. Be able to complete its tasks on time Have access to a computer and to an internet connection Be able to use the technology To plan well its time To be convinced that a learning of quality without attending a traditional classroom can be reached.
