The paper presents the results of a scientific initiation research (PIBIC) about academic culture and its process of hybridization with cyberculture. The study had the general purpose of verifying in what manners the mediations between learners and digital intellectual technologies favor or restrict the resignification of academic culture. In order to do so, the research sought to identify different academic practices of usage of the virtual learning environment (VLE) Moodle and to analyze the elements that constitute it. It is an ethnographic research, substantiated on intercultural perspective, according to Canclini e Martín-Barbero, linked to the Cultural Studies of Education. The results pointed that the VLE Moodle platform has not favored the hybridization of academic culture with cyberculture, mainly because of the episteme that rules teaching and learning in universities. It was found that the practices and elements analyzed on academic culture tend to reproduce the current teaching paradigm at the investigated institution.
