A virtual learning environment is conceived as an interaction space that ease the realization of mediated activities by technology, in this case the internet; besides using multimedia materials, learning objects, social networks, among others; which have changed imminently the traditional education. In this article an instrument is proposed in a checklist format, to evaluate any platform that has interaction spaces such as a Virtual Learning Environment, in this case responding to four spaces or general indicators: information Space, Mediation / Interaction Space, Instructional Design Space and Exhibition Space. Criteria are used according to the interactions and activities carried out by the consultant and virtual student. These, in turn, come up from the analysis and interaction of the advisers achieved in the discussion forums and portfolio activities through collaborative work. It was situated as a qualitative research, with a descriptive nature since it is not limited to data collection only, but also it refers and analyzes the interaction of the advisers achieved in the discussion forums and portfolio activities through the collaborative work of the workshop course "Virtual Learning Environments" developed in a virtual learning environment.

La Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala (Usac), como única universidad estatal, está obligada a desarrollar procesos que permitan la inclusión de grupos vulnerados en la educación superior. Es necesario monitorear constantemente dichos procesos; por lo que se desarrolló la investigación denominada “Inclusión educativa de estudiantes con discapacidad en la Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala: seguimiento y estudio de casos bajo la perspectiva interseccional”, durante el año 2017, con el aval del Instituto Universitario de la Mujer y el financiamiento de la Dirección General de Investigación de la Usac. El tipo de investigación fue no experimental, con un enfoque mixto de investigación, reflejado en las tendencias porcentuales de caracterización y en la valoración cualitativa de las experiencias de los estudiantes. Se utilizó el método interseccional para incorporar factores asociados a la exclusión social, como condición de discapacidad, sexo, pertenencia étnica, edad, grupo socioeconómico y orientación sexual. La muestra no probabilística, fue integrada por estudiantes con y sin discapacidad, así como por personal docente y administrativo. Los resultados evidencian la falta de un registro fidedigno de personas con discapacidad; sin embargo, los participantes brindaron información que cualitativamente puede considerarse útil para implementar acciones que permitan mejorar la inclusión por perspectiva de discapacidad con enfoque de derechos humanos. Así mismo, se busca compartir las experiencias de la comunidad universitaria de la Usac en relación con la accesibilidad en el ámbito universitario.
