THE ROLE OF THE TEACHER IN DISTANCE EDUCATION. THE TUTORIAL FUNCTION -…

- - - - Teaching is a unique professional field, it not only consists of the transmission of knowledge to a group of young people, but also entails the enormous responsibility and satisfaction of touching lives. ... What it means to be a teacher does not correspond to a way of earning money, it corresponds to an attitude or way of life.
        The priority of the remote modality must go through ensuring that the student is motivated and learns, reducing the gap imposed by the custom of the physical. Knowing that some find it harder than others to concentrate and adapt to this new environment.
        For this reason, in the following note we will present some points on the role that teachers should take regarding distance education:
        
        Active lessons: repeating the terms exposed on a slide is not functional, since the student's attention falls. Seeking to carry out active lessons that measure what has been learned during the class and outside of it is what is needed. More interventions, more essays and more reflective or practical work!
        
        Conversation with the student: a good teacher must stimulate the student without neglecting humane treatment. Each person is a world, so talking about the feeling of the room and what can be done together to improve will come in handy.
        
        Patience: sometimes there is a tendency to judge students unnecessarily without knowing their conditions or limitations. You have to be patient and not assume things. Let the student go at their own pace!

        Tutoring has as its purpose in secondary education to foster bonds of dialogue, reflection and action in the group, in order to strengthen the interrelation with students regarding academic performance, relationships of coexistence and the visualization of their life project.

        Tutoring is a support strategy for students to enhance their comprehensive training with a humanistic and responsible vision that allows: Facilitating the student's adaptation to the school environment. Improve your study and work skills. Reduce failure rates and school backwardness.

        It develops around the student. It is this one who decides the pace of learning, the depth or the direction of the orientations, clarifications or reinforcements that you need.
        
        It is not essential for learning to occur.
        
        It acts as a potential mechanism of intermediation between the materials and systems of didactic communication and the students.
        
        Does not control the basic aspects of design and planning of the course, although it can influence them through its mediating activity.
        
        Carry out the evaluation in accordance with previously established procedures.
        
        Guides in aspects that are not strictly didactic (administrative, relationship with the educational institution, support in the face of the difficulties posed by the study...)
- - - - What is the graduation profile?
        The graduation profile allows the establishment of a goal, which organizes that the expected learning is achieved progressively, guiding all the curricular activities involved, and also guides all the evaluation processes included in the study plan.
        
        The Pedagogue is socially and culturally linked to the educational function. Fact that harms your job expansion to other fields. In addition, there is a powerful labor intrusion, given that other profiles not linked to education hold jobs typical of Pedagogy professionals.
        It is because of this situation described that it is necessary to clarify the potential and labor development of Pedagogy and the Pedagogue, and even more so because of the importance of education in society as it is the main engine that promotes change.
        But not only in the educational field, Pedagogy extends to the business world, due to the importance of training and qualification of workers.
        
        In this line, Labor Pedagogy is the normative science that encompasses the study of the problems that work poses to education. Hence the need to include this curricular subject within the Pedagogy study plans, to meet the challenges demanded by the labor market regarding training in business organizations, and thus prepare students to intervene in this field. professionally.
