This text presents some understandings about the beginning of the Mathematics Degree at a distance from the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul. Such comprehensions arise from a master's research that characterized the initial movements of the constitution of this course. The analyses, based on five interviews produced throughout the Master's degree, were inspired by the delineations of Oral History, using its transcription and texturing resources, with official documents obtained at the institution. This methodology has been used in Math Education, especially by the Oral History of Math Education Group (GHOEM) and History of Math Education in Research (HEMEP). In this work, two movements stood out and were discussed as topics of two logbooks: (i) that of a story about the researched course and; (ii) the importance of previous actions (Installments and Short Courses) to its creation, understood as a continuity of actions.

Keywords : History of Mathematics Education; Oral History; Distance Education; Degree in Mathematics at a Distance; Open University of Brazil.
