| Summary: | Using affinity networks as its basis, this study proposes a management model of distance learning (DL) professional training courses as a space conducive to knowledge diffusion, on the basis of the technological profile of course participants. The proposed model uses individual metrics of each actor in the network, the technological profile (TP) of the participants and a diagram of activities used for the actions taken during the pedagogical management of a distance learning course. This is an instrumental case study whose research method is strongly influenced by netnography. The data were collected from participants in two editions of a Brazilian support programme for municipal education leaders. The proposed model defines collective and individual management strategies and contributes to the management of education focusing on the success of the learning process in a virtual learning environment by incorporating the TP of subjects involved in distance learning courses. |
