Resumen

The teaching attitude in the e-learning model is a system of positive or negative evaluations of feelings and favorable or unfavorable action tendencies regarding teaching through digital technologies. It is built by symbolic interactionism, relationships based on freedom and creativity; the connectivist theory explains that learning and knowledge occur through networks. This research seeks to understand the teaching attitude in e-learning from their own discourse and that of the students of a private university in Lima, Peru. The approach was qualitative; the data were collected with semi-structured in-depth interviews with students of the sixth cycle of Architecture; the design was hermeneutic phenomenological; the sample consisted of four teachers and six students; the analysis was carried out with Heidegger's interpretative method with the help of qualitative software. The results are illustrated with semantic networks; it was found, from the students' point of view, that the teaching attitude is based on their beliefs, feelings, knowledge and actions, and was positive; learning achievement was improved and the transition from face-to-face to virtual was smooth; from the teachers' perspective, their attitude was favorable with a positive and beneficial teaching.
