The virtual higher education in Latin America and the Caribbean (Spanish) By ANUIES-unesco

Virtual higher education in the Bolivian universities is a recent innovative experiment, not yet evaluated, that occurs in very few universities, including:

- A regional university status above international organization that receives government subsidies of the 5 Andean countries (the Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar) - A private university (nonprofit) - Two public universities (which have significant international support: one of UNESCO and other cooperation from European Union countries).

Distance Learning

Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar (Spanish)

Distance Education
For over 15 years, the Headquarters of the UASB apply new educational technologies in academic programs that use distance education mode. The operating environment for this purpose is the Center for Distance Education (CEADIS), which supports the implementation of programs partially or entirely at a distance.

e-Learning

Wikipedia (Spanish)

Although many countries have more experience in what we call e. learning, in Bolivia there are several experiences in distance education. Most institutions work via moodle, ie platform, however the UNSXX has extensive experience in distance education through a distance education program for regular teachers.

In Bolivia many state-owned universities are conducting classes of Distance Education, among which are: Technical University of Oruro (http://www2.dpicuto.edu.bo/) and the Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar .

The new technology in Indian universities (Spanish)

The new technology will be essential part of the operation of Indian Universities recently opened in our country. The University Aymara Tupac Katari (Warisata - La Paz), the University Casimiro Huanca Quechua (Chimore - Cochabamba) and the University Bolivian Guarani and Lowland Villages (Machareti - Chuquisaca) Internet service will also be networked and digitally between them, thanks to technical initiatives of the staff of New Technologies of Information and Communication from the Ministry of Education.

Furthermore, another link was also made via the Internet between the Minister Aguilar and Mr. Andoni Mujika, representative of the University of Mondragon (Basque Country - Spain). In the opportunity this university has committed to cooperate fully in the implementation of the Bolivian Indian Universities, as the Basque university has advanced experience of a trilingual education model -Euskera, Castilian, English- and heavy use of new information technologies and communication.
