MACHADO, Leticia Rocha et al. Pedagogical strategies in distance education: A look from different contexts. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2021, vol.34, n.2, pp.183-199.  Epub Aug 03, 2022. ISSN 0871-9187.  https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.18550.

The goal of the present article is to present the mapping, creation and application of pedagogical strategies (PS) focused on Distance Education (DE) in different contexts. For that, extension courses were used in different areas, which dealt with socio-affective aspects of distance education, m-learning and digital inclusion of the elderly. The need of this investigation arises from the fact that the concept of pedagogical strategies is usually broad and often inaccurate. Although some studies do use the term, few authors discuss its meaning and application. Based on these, this article presents a definition of pedagogical strategies, as well as implementation situations in distance education. In this approach, PS can be considered as a set of actions put into practice by the teacher to achieve an education-aimed goal. The methodology used to carry out this research was a multiple case study of the qualitative type. Data collection was based on the development, application and evaluation of pedagogical strategies used in extension courses. From the analysis of the data, it was possible to map different strategies and verify the pertinence in their adequacy, according to the context and profile of each audience. Based on the studies we carried out, we can conclude that the pedagogical strategies need to be constantly evaluated, mainly due to the transformations that can occur with the inclusion of new digital technologies in the virtual context, in addition to the heterogeneous profile of the students.
