Abstract
This paper describes 14 Colombian web based “edu-communicational” projects. The aim is to analyze different types of platforms, different type of use and the elements that facilitate interaction with final users. The study sample is composed of three main categories of sites: formal education sites, informal education sites and other types of sites that contain some kind of educational content. The research establishes different variables aimed at discovering educommunicative tools. Both the theoretical framework and the conceptual approach to edu-communication, as well as the methodological proposal applied are retrieved from the works of De Oliveira (2009), Freire (2002), Barbas Coslado (2012), Pérez-Tornero (2004), Tejedor (2010), Said and Arcila (2011a) and O’Reilly (2009), among others. In conclusion, the article shows similarities and differences among the platforms that shape the online edu-communicational landscape in Colombia.
