Teacher's habitus on virtual classrooms

By understanding indifference related to pedagogical action which contributes to inequalities reproduction in the education system, this paper seeks to capture, from semi-structured interviews, habitus traces of supervisor-teachers towards Pedagogy degree (distance education programs) at Brasilia University - UnB on the scope of Open System Brazilian University - OSBA. The methodological guidelines of Bourdieu (2007) were one of the guiding elements to interview analyses, mainly considering the heuristic use of habitus concept. It is concluded that its teacher's habitus involves volunteer efforts in search of a differentiated pedagogical action. However, it is ambiguous and complacent relative to limits of the distance education developed by OSBA. Furthermore, analysis data may provide elements to motivate political-pedagogical reorientation aimed to a new national model for distance education programs.
