ZADUSKI, Jeong Cir Deborah; LIMA, Ana Virginia Isiano  and  SCHLUNZEN JUNIOR, Klaus. Ecosystems of learning in the digital age: considerations about a teacher training in the inclusive education perspective. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.60, pp.269-287.  Epub Feb 04, 2020. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.19.060.ds12.

This paper was designed as an invitation to reflect on the possibilities of a learning proposal where the core is not only the learner, or his formal learning environment, but, the whole ecosystem that permeates training processes, with special emphasis on fostering inclusion in distance education. To do so, we share an excerpt of two doctoral theses in development, whose articulating axis is a teacher training developed in partnership between two universities (one in the state of São Paulo and one in Florida, USA), grounded on the Constructionist, Contextualized and Significant Approach (SCHLÜNZEN, 2015). With a qualitative nature and a research-action type, the study aims to foster discussions about the possibilities of distance education as a space of engagement and inclusion. Initial results have demonstrated some of the tangible benefits that are possible when working internationally and collaboratively grounded on the CCS Approach aiming to build online learning environments. Although it is still a process under development, we believe that the study is important because it fosters discussions about the promotion of learning ecosystems grounded on collaborative work, respect and inclusion.

Keywords : Inclusion; Distance education; CCS Approach.
