This short article, presenting partial research results, aims to analyze the relationship between student participation frequency on the Moodle platform and their learning outcomes. The study was conducted with 27 students enrolled in course 551104 of the Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics at the National Open and Distance University (UNAD). Using a quantitative approach and a descriptive-correlational methodology, the study examined a sample of 27 students from course 551104, analyzing their frequency of access to the platform, content viewing, interaction with the instructor, and academic results obtained throughout the five modules that comprise an academic semester, thus demonstrating autonomous learning. This research revealed a direct and significant relationship between the analyzed variables, allowing for the proposal of mechanisms to strengthen student engagement and consistency in learning within virtual environments.
