摘要:In this work, we report the main results of a survey about the speech produced by thirteen teachers of introductory courses of Portuguese through distance education in universities. It was used: a questionnaire that focused on the practice of distance education, emphasizing the development of educational activities and a comparison between both face-to-face and distance designs; activities that guided the practice of teachers and the interaction during a one-term on-line course. Based on the French semiotics, we analyzed data in search of information about the production of meaning in the text. In the search of similarities and differences, we compared the courses of themes and figures in order to verify the relationship established between them. The concepts reflected in these discourses are important because it not only link to the teacher's voice, but also to the school and, ultimately, to society itself. Among the main results, we realized that the discourse of a teacher does not have many differences, but the discourses of teachers and critics point out conflicting views, for example, if the adequacy of the contents and activities in the digital environment is important.
