Abstract

This article articulates different production contributions concerning Distance Education (DE), thus seeking to collaborate in the construction of the theoretical and epistemological reference related to this modality and its potential for collaborative knowledge building - a major challenge and a cardinal goal of distance education. It brings the contributions of many discussions that took place in the research group such as Knowledge, Cognitive Analysis, Ontology and Socialization (FACED/UFBA), with the sharing of experiences of knowledge workers who act as researchers, as well as a wide range of authors who offered their work to the distance education epistemic community.
