Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the results of a research carried out in a virtual faculty of education in a private university in Colombia. It consists of the characterisation of students' abilities for reading and writing comprehension for academic literacy. This study verifies the effectiveness of an e-learning platform implementation for all the programs incorporated in such faculty. The university established a methodological procedure for text mining in order to identify specific keywords in different text typologies for specialised areas. This platform allows professors and students to develop an expertise in disciplines using text mining as an interdisciplinary strategy to build the knowledge and improve the quality in their professional context.
