Abstract

The dissertation presented here investigates the Aesthetics and Personal Image in its conceptual foundations, mediated by new technological actors in the network formation of Technologist in Aesthetics and Personal Image in the distance. The research thus had locus as a techie course in the distance and the historical assumptions of Personal Aesthetics and Image as wire guides the research object composition. The motivation for the choice of the proposed theme is justified by the lived experience of the researcher as a teacher at a basic level courses, technical and technological. The research methodology was created from the qualitative approach. As for the methodological procedures, we opted for the field research in light of the Actor-Network Theory. The work is organized into three chapters, the loom: the first wire, which presents the basic threads that underlie the construction of the research object and their meanings; Tessitura: A Trama Image and Meaning, which is the intertwining of the wire guides to the base wire for the formation of the plot, considering that tessitura some elements for data analysis, as sources that support or refute statements and declarations and Trama of meanings in the light of Latour's theory (2012), while theoretical framework that supports this research, were enlisted human and non-human actors who provided data for the construction and analysis relevant to the object. For data analysis was used as theoretical and methodological basis of the Collective Subject Discourse (CSD) methodology developed by Lefevre (2005) consisting of a set of processes and procedures resulting in speech synthesis, derived from individual speeches fragments gathered by similarity senses becoming significant matter. Constitutes as a methodological procedure for collecting information, the open interview technique with the teacher students of Technologist course Aesthetics and Personal Image in the distance the presence support pole / Manaus, criteria chosen for the sample universe, as well as interviews with tutors and pole coordinator, actors involved in the fabric that constitutes the investigated network. As a result, the study showed no discussion of the conceptual foundations of aesthetics and personal image in the training course technologist in the distance, limited access to technological mediators and their potential for human actors in the process of teaching and learning at the pole, descaracterizando thus the function of technological mediators for mere intermediaries factor that affects the development and quality of the offered course.
