Role of the tutor in e-learning .
The "b
-learning" and "e -learning" models are common and have greater
acceptance in the "distance learning " , where the last one (e
-learning) is a major challenge for both the student and the teacher , and that
takes place in a process of " learning and teaching " 100 % remotely.
While the student is perceived as the main role in any process of education, the teacher also plays a very important role. On the back of the teacher has the responsibility to investigate , design and create teaching materials to teach their students , but within the e -learning , the teacher must be a person who motivates and monitors all activities performed by the students, Moreover, the teacher is the one who must create a dynamic environment that encourages " participation and learning " of the group that he is responsibly of.
Jose
Andres Sobrino in its publication " Virtual Tutor" (2008 ) , highlights
the role that a virtual teacher should play as " ...should guide students
to become aware of the characteristics of distance learning and reflect
on the efforts and benefits of the modality to conduct a self-learning process .... "While the student is perceived as the main role in any process of education, the teacher also plays a very important role. On the back of the teacher has the responsibility to investigate , design and create teaching materials to teach their students , but within the e -learning , the teacher must be a person who motivates and monitors all activities performed by the students, Moreover, the teacher is the one who must create a dynamic environment that encourages " participation and learning " of the group that he is responsibly of.

Rol del tutor en la educación a distancia.
Dos de las modalidades con más demanda en la educación a
distancia son la modalidad b-learning y la modalidad e-learning, donde esta última
(e-learning) supone un mayor reto tanto para el estudiante como para el
docente, ya que se realiza en un proceso de aprendizaje y enseñanza 100% a
distancia.
Si bien el estudiante se percibe como el papel principal en
todo proceso de educación, también el docente juega un papel de gran peso.
Sobre el docente recae la responsabilidad en investigar, diseñar, crear un
material didáctico para enseñarlo a sus estudiantes, pero dentro del e-learning
el docente debe ser una persona que motiva y hace seguimiento a todas las
actividades realizadas por los estudiantes, por otra parte, el docente es quien
debe generar un ambiente dinámico y que propicie la participación y aprendizaje
del grupo que está bajo su responsabilidad.
José Andres Sobrino en su
publicación “Tutor Virtual” (2008), resalta el rol que debe desempeñar un
docente virtual como “…debe orientar al alumno para que tome conciencia de las
características del aprendizaje a distancia y reflexione sobre los esfuerzos y ventajas
de la modalidad para poder llevar a cabo un proceso de autoaprendizaje...”.
