Abstract

Distance education organized by means of virtual learning environments is a current reality in the expansion of the education of health professionals in Brazil. In this perspective, The University of Brasília has been using an innovative educational proposal. Therefore, the present case study describes the utilization of an electronic portfolio in the teaching and learning process of two undergraduate and one graduate classes. Data were collected based on direct observation of the classes and on the answers to a questionnaire completed by 270 students.  The results showed a significant level of satisfaction among the students regarding the instructional design in use, as well as the innovative character of the proposal. Therefore, the use of the portfolio was considered satisfactory in terms of supporting the teaching-learning process in distance education within the healthcare field.
