Resumo: This study aims to analyze the potential of the Schoology digital platform for offering online courses, from the point of view of students in an open course. The research is justified by the need to understand the use of different virtual learning environments. This is a qualitative research, with data obtained from the application of questionnaires. Participated in the research six students from a Distance Biological Sciences course. Most participants found the Moodle platform to be easy to use. As in the case of Moodle, most students found the environment, tools, and communication in Schoology easy to use. However, one student found it difficult to use Schoology (environment) and the tools. When asked about the greatest difficulty in the course, time was mentioned by five students. We conclude that students recognize the use of Schoology as a suitable tool for offering online courses. We also observed the need to invest in research that seeks to understand how virtual learning environments influence the success/failure of students.

La investigación se justifica por la necesidad de comprender el uso de diferentes entornos virtuales de aprendizaje. Se trata de una investigación cualitativa, con datos obtenidos de la aplicación de cuestionarios. Participaron de la investigación seis alumnos de un curso de Ciencias Biológicas a Distancia. La mayoría de los participantes encontraron la plataforma Moodle fácil de usar. Sin embargo, a un alumno le resultó difícil usar Schoology (entorno) y las herramientas. Cuando se les preguntó acerca de la mayor dificultad en el curso, el tiempo fue citado por cinco alumnos. Concluimos que los alumnos reconocen el uso de Schoology como una herramienta adecuada para ofrecer cursos en línea. También observamos la necesidad de invertir en investigaciones que busquen comprender cómo los entornos virtuales de aprendizaje influyen en el éxito/fracaso de los alumnos.Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar o potencial da plataforma digital Schoology para a oferta de cursos online, na visão de alunos de um curso livre.
