OBANDO-CORREAL, Nadia Lucía; PALECHOR-OCAMPO, Andrés Oswaldo  and  ARANA-HERNANDEZ, Diana Marcela. Teaching Presence and Construction of Knowledge in a b-Learning University Course. Pedagogía y Saberes [online]. 2018, n.48, pp.27-41. ISSN 0121-2494.

This article presents the results of a research that analyzes teaching presence (TP) in a b-learning university course. The study brings together a structural and a content analysis in order to identify the real exercise of the TP and the contribution of each participant to the construction of knowledge. The results show that those who access the platform frequently to check the forum and make contributions in different dimensions and moments are efficient TP carriers which would not be a teacher-exclusive characteristic. As such, the role of effective interactions in learning processes and the collaborative construction of knowledge are seen as the support that gives sense to educational actions in asynchronous networks.

Keywords : teaching presence; asynchronous learning networks; education influence; structural analysis; content analysis.
