  1. Implementing Distance Learning Courses at Low Cost José M. da Silva

  2. “the unapologetic use of minimum levels of technology, carefully chosen with precise attention to their advantages and limitations, in support of well-defined instructional objectives (…) to get to know the easy-to-use technologies and make the very best use of them.” Marie (Mauri) Collins (1994) Technological Minimalism

  3. “Maybe the best term is not ‘minimalism,’ but ‘technological sufficientism’: to adopt enough technology to meet the established learning goals; not more than enough – but no less either. We must not underestimate the power of technology; the power to make things easier, and the power to make things more difficult. It is a double-edged knife: it cuts on both sides – and it can cut on the undesired side. From my observation and personal experience, I understand that the most powerful combination is that one which unites simple technology with pedagogical sophistication. And the most deadly combination to learning is that one which unites technological sophistication with pedagogical simplicity. Not even the combination of technological sophistication and pedagogical sophistication yields better results than the combination of technological simplicity and pedagogical sophistication.” Wilson Azevedo

  4. What it takes... ► Selecting the coordinator of the program. ► Selecting the IT professional. ► Acquiring or configuring the equipment (servers, computers, hosting, software). ► Selecting the LMS (Learning Management System). ► Deciding on the courses to be offered. ► Hiring the material designer (s). ► Creating course materials. ► Hiring and, if necessary, training teachers. ► Implementing the course (s). ► Selecting the coordinator of the program. ► Deciding on the courses to be offered. ► Hiring the material designer (s). ► Creating course materials. ► Hiring and, if necessary, training teachers. ► Implementing the course (s).
