Digital technology, insofar as it promotes interactivity, integration and media convergence, brought to the contemporary agenda the discussion on a new distance education. This new distance education rejects bureaucratized and inflexible projects that depersonalize course attendants and inhibit innovation and creativity. The proposal put forward in the text is a pedagogy that promotes authoring, based on strategies that view the student as the protagonist of the educational act, respecting the complexity of human beings and their totality and capacity to build significations and generate socially relevant knowledge. This article presents projects that are being developed by the Education and Culture Ministry Distance Education Secretariat, using authoring pedagogy. These projects seek to foster and translate numerous responses from individual and collective actors motivated to explore, analyze, contextualize, deepen, and expand their own view and experience with a given issue.

Abstrak Memasuki era 4.0, segala sektor dalam aktivitas kehidupan sudah mulai terdigitalisasi, begitupun yang terjadi dalam sektor pendidikan. Selain itu kondisi Pandemi COVID-19 mewajibkan aktivitas pembelajaran dilakukan di rumah. Hal tersebut tentunya menuntut peran teknologi digital untuk mendukung sistem pendidikan jarak jauh atau yang lebih dikenal PJJ. Namun dalam penerepan sistem pendidikan jarak jauh tentunya tidak mudah dan banyak hal yang menjadi kendala-kendala dalam sistem pembelajaran tersebut, hal ini disebabkan beberapa hal antara lain kesiapan guru dan siswa menghadapi proses pembelajaran yang berbeda dari sebelumnya dan juga model dari desain pembelajaran yang tentunya perlu di sesuaikan agar hasil dari pembelajaran dapat tetap maksimal. Tentunya banyak alternatif model pembelajaran dalam sistem pembelajaran jarak jauh, salah satu yang dapat diterapkan pada situasi saat ini ialah Model Flex blanded learning. Abstract Entering the 4.0 era, all sectors in life activities have begun to be digitized, as has happened in the education sector. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic condition requires learning activities to be carried out at home. This of course demands the role of digital technology to support the distance education system or better known as PJJ. However, in implementing the distance education system, it is certainly not easy and many things become obstacles in the learning system, this is due to several things, including the readiness of teachers and students to face a different learning process than before and also the model of learning design which of course needs to be implemented. adjusted so that the results of learning can remain maximal. Of course, there are many alternative learning models in distance learning systems, one of which can be applied to the current situation is the Flex blended learning model.

While effective distance education has been practiced and studied for centuries, it has been in just the last decade that networked digital technology has been employed. Technologies and teaching techniques continue to evolve, and the options continue to expand, emphasizing the need for information that will assist distance education planners and participants in making decisions that will result in optimal learning experiences.

Resumo: A busca por novos caminhos para o desenvolvimento dos indivíduos e da sociedade, como um todo, perpassam a Educação. É truísmo dizer que a educação a distância está transformando os processos de ensino mundo afora. A eliminação das restrições geográficas, em ambientes moldados e utilizados digitalmente, implica numa diversidade de perspectivas, perfis e demandas regionais que caracterizam os alunos dessa modalidade. A partir do panorama que se descortina, este estudo tem como objetivo tecer reflexões, com base na revisão de literatura, sobre o papel da educação a distância mediada por tecnologia digital no processo de inclusão social, sobre as demandas que esse processo provoca e as oportunidades que ele incita.Palavras-Chave: Educação a Distância.

It is truism to say that Distance Education is transforming teaching processes around the world. The elimination of geographical restrictions, in molded and digitally used environments, implies a diversity of perspectives, profiles and regional demands that characterize the students of this modality. Based on the literature review, this study aims to reflect on the role of distance education mediated by digital technology in the process of social inclusion, on the demands that this process causes and the opportunities that it incites.Keywords: Distance Learning.

Abstract The purpose of this article is to provide clinical supervisors with information pertaining to state-of-the-art clinic observation technology. We use a novel video-capture technology, the Landro Play Analyzer, to supervise clinical sessions as well as to train students to improve their clinical skills. We can observe four clinical sessions simultaneously from a central observation center. In addition, speech samples can be analyzed in real-time; saved on a CD, DVD, or flash/jump drive; viewed in slow motion; paused; and analyzed with Microsoft Excel. Procedures for applying the technology for clinical training and supervision will be discussed.
