Abstract

With the aim of presentin a model for teachers development that could overcome the contradictions between an innovative theory and tradicional practices, we propose a "design" of a learning environment based on Piaget's interactionist and constructivist paradigm, supported by information science and comunication resources. This environment, which propotes the increasing formation of a virtual learning communities network is being tested in the development of multiplying teachers for tha Educational Technology Centers of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The partial results indicate that experiencing this new development practice vitalizes the learning processes and raises awareness and, as a consequence, increases the transformation process in educational practices.
