Los principios rectores del espacio europeo de educación superior virtual

Abstract

European higher education is, since 1999, in a process of relevant changes due to the setting up of the European Higher Education Space. In addition to the convergence of structures and the implementing of the European credit that shape the formal structure we have to add the changes in the teaching and learning methodologies through new technologies. This means changes in the role of teachers and students as well as in the education texts. This article offers a revision of the principles that historically have guided university distance education and that must lead the implementing of a Virtual European Higher Education Space.
