RESUMO

This thesis studies conceptions of the learning valuation whenever long distance education courses are applied, since we have noticed the growing offering and supply of distance learning for education and training courses lately. Taking into account the development of information and communication technologies, we firmly believe that this subject is relevant in order that distance education courses may, as a matter of fact, contribute to overcome, as Nation, the great disparity of access to education we undergo. We have considered, as theoretical support, the principles of formative valuation, once one of its chief objectives is to offer reliable information so that the teacher and student are capable of rethinking and adjust whatever and wherever necessary the teaching and knowledge processes. The research and study done about the History of Distance Education as well as the means of communication employed by this path of teaching has aimed to understand the status in which it is placed presently, so that we may know and comprehend the probable conceptions which guide and direct the legislation in force about this theme. We have, also, analysed three dossier and records of college education institutions which offer long distance education and learning courses, attempting to identify the conception of learning gain valuation. As contibution, we were able to put in relief two aspects: the analysis of which instruments and tools of valuation may be used in long distance education courses, as well as a set of principles that might generate uncountable pedagogic practices which may enhance and benefit the knowledge and learning process construction. The review and criticism pointed to the legislation in force aim to create spaces and make room to productive debates which may contribute to the elaboration of a national education project.
