students in their learning, within the subject Project I of the Licentiate in Technologies and
Information (LTEI) of the Virtual University System of the University of Guadalajara (

A content analysis of the types of interaction in the messages of the forums is done, according
to the classification of Hirumi (2002). The course in which the research was conducted is
nested in a Virtual Learning Environment (AVA) Moodle. A solid open source-learning
platform responds to the requirements of its academic model.

dynamics of the Project I of the Licentiate in Technologies and Information (LTEI) of the
System of Virtual University of the University of Guadalajara (UDGVirtual).

the forums of irregular form, since some published more messages than others did and the
participations varied in each forum.
