| Summary: | This paper aims at presenting the communicational appropriations of Distance Education students of the Federal University of Piauí, given that this modality allows changes in their communicational/educational practices. The systematic problem recognizes that the communicational/educational process can be effected on the Internet, basically in digital environments. However, it seemed relevant the perception of "how" it is processed. It is this overlap that our research problem arises, which, strictly speaking, involves the "how" is given communication in distance education, and the circulation of this process in digital educational/social platforms. We applied a questionnaire for finding data on the lives of students, we also mapped practices on the internet before and after the distance education course as well as their personal characteristics, the flows and communication migrations. The authors that guided these studies involved the relationship established between the students and cyberculture, being endorsed, among others, by Citelli and Costa (2011), Bonin 2011) Lopes (2006), Maldonado (2011). Freire (1983) and Hall (2005). The results indicate that the subjects started to use the internet as a compulsory learning tool, reconfiguring the learning process and marking the establishment of a mediated education contract - MidEC.
