Comunidad virtual del aprendizaje: la comunicación educativa del siglo XXI

Resumen

The present degree work is built with the research methodology, systematic analysis of literature. This document addresses the Virtual Learning Communities (CVA), after understanding that educational communication faces a combined reality between pedagogical practices and the network society (connectivity and cyberculture). The CVA have been taking greater importance in education, due to the dynamics that technology development has brought. "Virtual communities appeared in the academic environment, among people eager to share their interests, beliefs and values with others" (Silvio, 2009, p. 3) because of this, they have cemented an environment of knowledge based on individual and collective thinking , especially in the construction of knowledge based on participation. Understanding that the Internet not only isolates young people and students, is one of the objectives of this research project. The CVA then, symbolize a means and an answer to an imminent need, to integrate new technologies to education in an assertive way.
