This article by Morten Flate Paulsen on their Teory of Cooperative Freedom, gives a brief introduction on various theories in distance education and the influences that led him to develop his theory.
This theory argues two main pillars, the Cooperation between those involved with the use of CMC and Freedom, where the student can choose your route without being subjected to a rigid curriculum.
It also shows the six dimensions of the Hexagon of Cooperative Freedom (time, space, pace, medium, access, and curriculum) that educators should take into account in developing programs.

I will review the annotated bibliography from Pedro.
The annotated bibliography from Pedro, is one reflexion from the three papers.
Start by noting the importance of using Web2.0 tools, for the publication of the work, it allows to be accessible to all his colleagues, thereby promoting collaboration and transparency, because they are accessible to all, stressing also the potential of social networks , for the interaction that allow.
I think Pedro should have done a reflection for each of the papers individually, and not one reflexion for all.
Pedro forgot to insert the names of the authors in their annotated bibliography, and I think maybe important insert the date of the papers.
I´ll review the Learning Object made by Joaquim
Joaquim made one interesting poster using glogster, to explain the significance of transparency in online learning, which promotes cooperation and improves quality, making variations in color, to highlight some important concepts.
In my opinion, maybe Joaquim could have given more interactivity to the poster by inserting some videos or images. I would suggest for example, insert some of the LO made by Joaquim in this Master Degree, or even some of those made in this unit by different colleagues.
