In the first diagnosis phase, the need for the implementation of a virtual classroom in that subject was determined. Information was collected by means of a questionnaire validated through expert opinions before being applied. In the second phase, a feasibility study determined the legal and institutional support framework of the project. In the third phase, taking into account the results of diagnostic and feasibility phases, a proposal was designed meeting the objectives of the program using multimedia strategies. The design and development of the proposal will result in: a) four trained teachers competent to assume the facilitator and/or tutor role at distance, b) a screening test to obtain general and specific information about the students and c) a subject updated program, educational guides as well as the design of a virtual classroom. %K Distance Education %K Introduction to Computers %K Students %K Virtual Classroom %U http://bibmed.ucla.edu.ve/db/psm_ucla/edocs/SAC04S1/SAC04S06.pdf
