Abstract

Distance Education (DE) offers students flexibility and personalization in accessing knowledge, eliminating geographical and temporal barriers. However, this teaching modality presents challenges, including student motivation, validation of remote learning, and accessibility of educational content available in virtual learning environments (VLE). These challenges direct the attention of educational managers. This article presents a literature review that proposes essential strategies to address these challenges and ensure inclusion in education. The importance of engaging and motivating students, providing individualized support, removing accessibility barriers, and developing effective pedagogical strategies are highlighted as approaches to improve the quality of DE.
