Abstract

This article presents an approach to the field of virtualization of Higher Education in Latin America, from the revision of its basis and the trends showed in educational agencies publications and regional key authors in the last ten years. This paper introduces an analytical model that recognizes important relationships and oppositions between concepts and practices inside the consulted bibliography: from the analysis of outcomes to the use of different prospective exercises. This work also offers a reflection on the convergence between a paradigm of management in educational innovation for institution strengthening and an ICT ecosystemic paradigm that offers other possible scenarios.
