| Abstract | |
The objective is to contribute to the development of theoretical and methodological bases for the practice of distance dialogue, from a dialogical conception of Education. We have developed a methodology to offer a distance course Metodologia do Ensino de Química Via Telemática (MEQVT) , in which part of its content dealt with the training of tutors for the virtual dialogue. We have created a communication software, the Tutor em Rede, and implemented it to offer a tutoring through the internet. We have observed students´ performance over three semesters, whose activities and interactions held with high school students formed our database. For research purposes, we have observed a student of MEQVT during the tutoring training, from where we have selected a sample of interaction episodes between that tutor and students to perform our analysis. We have taken sociocultural studies developed by Vygotsky, Bakhtin, Wertsch, Wells, as the theoretical basis to investigate the dialogical interaction as an alternative to the distance dialogue. From this study, we suggest that the dialogical learning is an interesting proposal for the processes of problem and meaning construction, but that its achievement in tutoring services, depends on the creation of strategies to share the both processes. One of the strategies adopted by the subject of our study was a game of questions and answers. This game proved to be efficient for the reconstructing the students\' questions, in that the tutor dealed the engagement of students to dialogue, through the establishment of empathy, the sharing of the construction of ideas and the prevalence of the function of the dialogical speech. Finally, we consider to support the dialogical learning concept for distance activities that exceeds the paradigm of \"transmission\" by one of mediation, of interaction. (AU) | |
