This work focuses on digital technologies in education, with a focus on distance education (EAD) and interactivity between students and teachers. The general objective is to analyze the perception of interactivity in the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), considering the most used tools, the disciplines that contribute to learning and the understanding of the concept of interactivity. The methodology adopted consists of a bibliographic review and document analysis, based on data and case studies presented in the work "Digital Technologies in Education" (SOUSA; MOITA; CARVALHO, 2011). The results of the analysis indicate that the Forum stands out as the most interactive tool in the VLE, followed by Task, Chat and Questionnaire. It is concluded that distance education offers several possibilities for the use of materials and methodologies that stimulate creativity, but there needs to be greater awareness of the potential of technological tools in promoting collaborative learning.
