RESUMO

The present dissertation has as its research object the tutorial process in the primary teacher distance education course administered by the Institute for the Improvement of Teachers (IAP), in a case study in the District of Chibuto, Gaza Province. The objective of the research is the analysis of the pedagogical relations established between tutor and course participants, and develop, from the study of this practice, improvements for future courses and pedagogical actions related to EAD (Distance Education). It is also an objective of this dissertation to suggest some innovations in the ways course participants are accompanied. The role of the tutor in accompanying course participants is vital for them not to feel isolated and to obtain good study results. In this research the qualitative approach was adopted and the main focus was on the information provided by the persons involved in the process, such as course participants, tutors and managers. A theoretical framework was chosen which comprises the fundamentals of Distance Education, Teaching- learning Theory and Pedagogy. The results of the research permit me to conclude that the poor interaction observed in the relations between tutors and course participants and between the latter themselves is influenced by various factors, such as: tutorial articulation scheme; tutors profile; course regulations; prescriptive character of the tutors manual; lack of financial conditions of the course participants. It is my opinion that opting for the use of the computer and internet (using solar panels as the energy source) could contribute to improve these relations, while at the same time reducing the distances the course participants have to travel to get to the Pedagogical Nucleus
