Abstract

In spite of the growing global adoption of distance education, several specialists recognize the need for research in this field. In this work, this need is identified specifically in two central processes in online learning: the assessment of learning and the study of interactivity. A model based on a Cognitive Task Analysis technique is proposed as the basis for content development that is useful to carry out research to analyze online learning processes and the variables affecting them. The model has allowed the authors of this article to map domains and consequently to construct diagnostic, formative and summative assessments, and based on this mapping to build learning materials and to analyze learning interactions. Several effects arising in online environments, such as students’ skills, environmental features and instructional design can be identified, enabling courses to be built based on this model.
