Introduction
The global crisis caused by the Covid -19 pandemic, which began globally in the first quarter of
2020, generated many changes in the various activities of the world's population, one of the
hardest hit being those related to education.
As the World Bank (2020) states, on that date most countries closed their schools, generating a
strong impact on the educational processes of children and young people, which were aggravated
by social distancing policies. The aforementioned impact, related to the closure of schools, was
presented with the interruption of learning, the increase in inequality in learning and the reduction
of attachment to school (World Bank, 2020).
This is how UNESCO mentions “the pandemic has forced us to massively leave aside teaching
and learning in traditional environments with physical interactions” (United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization). Culture [UNESCO], 2020, p. 7); so many institutions,
including higher education organizations, found it necessary to migrate from face-to-face
educational processes to those supported by ICTs , such as educational platforms or also called
Virtual Learning Environments (EVA, in Spanish).
For his part, Cáceres-Correa (2020) indicates that, although the distance modality has been
criticized and is not the best of options, under conditions of inequality, as happens in Latin
America, it became a viable option in pandemic conditions.
So, for the inconvenience of continue developing, of shape in person, the educational process,
educational organizations showed their interest in the distance modality, which had already been
presented with the support of technology, and specifically the internet (Quintana Avello, 2020).
Thus, this forced change, caused by the health emergency, pushed traditional education towards
what Hodges et al. (2020) called “emergency remote education” and Ruiz Mendoza et al. (2021)
moved to an unscheduled phase, under conditions of insufficient technological infrastructure.
In Latin America, technology-assisted distance education in higher education institutions has
been gaining ground, so much so that it has become a training alternative for those who, due to
distance, time and employment issues, cannot access the traditional education system, to
overcome these impediments and obtain education ( Areth Estévez et al., 2015). This migration
was further accelerated by the health emergency caused by Covid 19. In this way, distance
education assisted by ICTs, such as EVAs , become a modality that promotes flexibility in the
teaching-learning process, bidirectional communication and teamwork (Nagua Suing , 2018).
Now, distance education can be defined, as cited by Pregowska (2021), as that in which teachers
and students are physically separated and instructions are given using various types of
technology, which can be synchronous or asynchronous. For his part, Moore (1977) define as a
set of methodologies instructional in the that the teaching HE develops

apart from learning, so that communication between teacher and student is facilitated in print,
electronic, mechanical or other form.
Similarly, Saykih (2018) cites that distance education is a form of education that involves a
physical separation between the teacher and the student, presented around planned and structured
learning experiences, for which communication channels are used. various ways that promote
student-facilitator interaction, as well as interaction between students and the educational
resource.
In view of the above and according to Ruiz Ortiz and Pichs Herrera (2020), distance education
revolves around two basic factors: physical distancing and communication. In addition to a strong
institutional base, self-learning, correct instructional design, support technologies and the active
participation of teachers and students ( Simonson , 2002).
Therefore, even within a virtual environment, distance education retains certain characteristics
and/or dimensions that must be reflected, namely, time, location, space, technology, interaction,
learning model and student control ( Piccoli et al., 2001). These dimensions of distance education
are characteristics of this modality that must be observable and perceived by the participants in
the teaching-learning process, such as teachers and students.
It is then that, under the previously seen context, the importance of carrying out a study that
identifies the assessment that one of the participants in the educational process has of the
dimensions of distance education is seen. Given the relevance of this topic, this article seeks to
identify the assessment that the undergraduate professor has in relation to the dimensions that
distance education must meet in a higher education institution.
Materials and methods
This research was carried out with a mixed approach. Its scope is descriptive with a concurrent
design (QUAN-CUALI). The study population is 43 teachers from which a convenience sample
of 30 teachers (70%) was obtained for the quantitative phase, while A convenient nested sample
(5) is taken for the qualitative phase. All participants develop their courses through the virtual
environment Moodle. The technique for obtaining data in the quantitative phase is the survey,
using the questionnaire as an instrument, while in the qualitative phase the interview technique is
used with the use of the semi-structured interview guide. For the analysis of the results, the SPSS
26 and MAXQDA programs are used for the analysis of quantitative and qualitative data,
respectively.
Results and discussion
The results obtained from the sociodemographic information section of the questionnaire
(quantitative phase), which was administered to the 30 teachers, are summarized as follows:
76.7% of participants are men, 80.0% of participants are between 20 and 50 years old, 66.7%
reside in the capital city of Guatemala and finally, 30.0% have obtained a bachelor's degree,
while 66.7% have a master's degree.

Note. On 4th the 6 dimensions, the level of compliance, from the perspective of teacher, is
valued as high (above of the 70% of the respondents). In so much that only in 2 dimensions,
The high rating is expressed by between 56% and 60% of the teachers in the study.
The dimensions with the highest compliance are location (96.7%), space (93.3%) and technology
(86.7%), which reflects that the teacher's perception is that the level of teaching-learning
management in the synchronous modality is adequate, as well as the availability of education at
any time; likewise, the level of ubiquity that is managed is high. Similarly, it is reflected that the
teaching resources that the modality uses are well managed and the level of communication
between teachers and students is adequate.
Other outstanding dimension, although not with similar weighting, is the temporality considered
high level by 73.3% of teachers. However, the results of the other 2 dimensions, from the
quantitative approach, such as interaction (56.7%) and student control (60.0%), show that the
teacher does not value with so much relevance, from your practice teacher. Furthermore, the
qualitative results complement the information as follows:
The analysis of “temporality”, and specifically of asynchronous activity, shows difference of
opinions. Thus, 7 mentions refer to the fact that teachers do not have control over the educational
process in this modality because they are not authorized to make changes to the content design.
On the other hand, only one mention refers to the fact that the management of the process is
partially controlled by the teacher. Only 5 mentions affirm that the teacher does have control.

temporality), there were 6 mentions arguing that there is saturation on the platform at certain
times of the academic cycle. There are 4 mentions in favor of educational availability.
The quantitative analysis of the dimension “temporality” shows that there is a variation in criteria,
because the results are distributed between high and medium levels, in relation to synchronous
activity; meanwhile, the qualitative analysis of asynchronous activity also presents a variety of
opinions.
The analysis of qualitative results that reflect the antagonism of criteria, comes to support the fact
that less than 75% of the teachers surveyed do not value this characteristic of the dimension
highly.
Regarding location, 96.7% of the survey participants rate compliance with this dimension as
high. The quantitative data is supported by the analysis of the data obtained from the interviews,
according to which the largest number of mentions (5) verify that this characteristic is met, while
2 mentions cite that ubiquity is limited, in the specific case of mobile phones or cell phones.
Along the same lines, 2 more mentions emphasize that ubiquity is true, as long as the location is
high. when using a laptop or desktop computer. The results also they make it look like that the
fulfillment of the dimension is depending on the level of connectivity the user has.
He analysis with approach mixed of the dimension "location", admits see that exists concurrence
of opinions in both phases of the study, so her assessment is confirmed.
In the “space” dimension, it is observed that 93.3% of the participants believe that their level is
high. These quantitative results do not coincide with those obtained in the interviews, and there is
a contradiction, because while this characteristic is corroborated by 5 mentions of teachers, who
express satisfaction with the variety of resources that the modality makes available, there are 3
antagonistic mentions, which show that more resources are lacking within the modality. platform
that technologically supports the distance modality.
The mixed analysis of the “space” shows that there is a contradiction in the evaluations of the
participants between the 2 phases of the study, so it is convenient to revalidate this characteristic
and thus confirm or not its compliance. Now in relation to the “technology” dimension, which
implies the group of tools used, in the distance education modality, in the delivery of the learning
material and which assists communication and management, between teacher and student, he
86.7% of the teachers value This dimension as high. With he approach qualitative is find 8
mentions that confirm the facilities of share material between users, However, one mention
clarifies that material management is present, but it is difficult to put into action.
The mixed analysis of “technology” shows that there is agreement of opinions in both phases of
the study, which supports the assessment of the dimension. The dimension of “interaction”
between students and between teacher and student is rated as high by 56.7% of teachers and as
medium by 30.0% of them. At the level of the semi-structured interviews, also HE reflects a
spot of view divided, of manner that HE have 7

6 mentions confirming the interaction between teacher and student, 6 mentions citing the
existence of an interaction only between students, 4 mentions antagonistic to the existence of this
characteristic between student and student, and finally, 3 mentions confirming the interaction
between teacher and student and student-student. The qualitative analysis with its variation of
criteria at the level of the assessment of the dimension supports the also divided values shown by
the quantitative analysis.
Finally, this study shows that the assessment that participants have regarding “student control”,
that is, the level of personalization that is present in distance education, is observed by teachers
with different points of view. Thus, 60.0% of the participants value the dimension with a high
level while 30.0% value it with a medium level. From the qualitative approach, the point of view
is different because the teachers express, through 9 mentions, that they confirm the existence of
this dimension. There were no contrary mentions.
The mixed analysis of the “student control” dimension reveals the existence of contradictions in
the points of view of the participants in the two phases of the study, so it is important to
revalidate this dimension to reaffirm its compliance.
In similar research, such as the study presented by Fernández Escárzaga et al. (2020) and That
of Villalobos Muñoz (2021) its results show that the teaching-learning process, through distance
education, was limited by the existence of a technological gap due to limited access to the
internet, which considerably reduced communication, however, the present study reflects contrary
results with the dimension of technology (delivery of learning material and communication).
On the other hand, the data obtained in the qualitative phase through the semi-structured
interview and analyzed with MAXQDA, are summarized as follows:

Note. It is noteworthy that, in temporality, there is a lack of control of the process; that ubiquity is
valued by several mentions; that this modality allows the satisfactory use of a variety of
resources; that at the level of technological support it allows sharing material between users; that,
at the level of interaction, the education to distance allows the interaction of teachers and students
with each other; and finally, teachers value the fact that there is delivery of personalized teaching.
Santos et al. (2020) indicates that teachers in their study perceive that distance education has
presented a lack of exchange of information and material with the student body, results which
partially coincide with those of the mixed analysis of the present study, at the level of the
interaction dimension (student-student and teacher-student).
Finally, Soler Morejón and Borjas Borjas (2019) comment that the teachers in their study, despite
the difficulties encountered in the distance education process, such as the lack of computers and
the Limitations of connectivity, either good, the lack of experience In this modality, it is
considered that the distance learning modality generates positive experiences. This study largely
agrees with the assessment given by the teachers in this study on the dimensions of temporality,
location and technology.
Conclusion
The assessment that the professor has on the dimensions to be fulfilled by distance education, in
the higher education institution under study, is high for 86.7% of participants, from the global
quantitative approach. However, from the mixed perspective, it is observed that: there are
contrary opinions regarding the fulfillment of: the synchrony and asynchrony of the modality, the
availability of distance education, the level of satisfaction due to the variety of available
resources and the personalization of the educational process, and finally, variation in the points of
view. about the interaction between students and between teacher-student. Is advisable extend
