Abstract

The emergence and dynamics of Elearning in the current scenarios of higher education, evidence of a major transformation occurred in the context of the information society: the use of ICT in the process of knowledge construction. This change has gone together, first, the improvement in the quality and formative offer, an offer that has sought to be more inclusive and representative of current social demands. And secondly, it is a modality that has tried to adapt to the current features of digital and digitized students (Prensky, 2006), whose role in the teaching process, tends to be more active than in traditional training models. This article focuses on this second dimension, analyzing how the Elearning tries to be an element of mediation between the current changes occurring in higher education and the emergence of new virtual students, more active and independent.
