Este trabalho teve como objetivo a elaboração de uma sequência didática em nível de Ensino Médio sobre Leis de Newton, para ser utilizada com o método de ensino Peer Instruction. (Instrução pelos Colegas). Esta sequência didática foi aplicada em quatro turmas (totalizando 118 alunos) da primeira série do Ensino Médio Técnico de uma escola pública de Novo Hamburgo – RS. A concepção de todo o material elaborado foi alicerçada na Teoria da Aprendizagem Significativa de David Paul Ausubel. As aulas foram estruturadas em sete encontros de uma hora e quarenta minutos cada um, sendo que em seis deles foi empregado o método Peer Instruction para a aprendizagem conceitual do conteúdo, intercalando-se questões envolvendo cálculos e o último encontro foi destinado à avaliação de todas as etapas do processo. A análise dos dados revela que as turmas obtiveram ganhos significativos de aprendizagem. Observou-se que as discussões entre os colegas foram proveitosas, propiciando a participação dos alunos como protagonistas do seu próprio processo de ensino-aprendizagem e levaram a um aumento do percentual de acertos das questões conceituais propostas. O retorno dado pelos alunos demonstra que a dinâmica da aula os motiva a trabalhar e os mantêm envolvidos com o trabalho por mais tempo. Conclui-se que esta sistemática pode se estender a outros conteúdos da Física, aumentando a interação entre os alunos e a reflexão crítica sobre os fenômenos que estão sendo abordados. Para a aplicação desta proposta foram elaboradas: tarefas prévias, os momentos da sequência didática e um banco de questões conceituais. / This work aimed to develop a high school level didactical sequence about Newton’s Laws of motion, suitable for use with Peer Instruction teaching method. This didactical sequence was implemented in four first grade classes (totaling 118 students) of a public technical High School in Novo Hamburgo (Brazil). The conception of all material was based on David Paul Ausubel’s Meaningful Learning Theory. The classes were organized in seven meetings of one hour and forty minutes each. The Peer Instruction method was used for conceptual learning during six of these meetings, interspersing questions involving calculations. The last meeting was dedicated to evaluate all the stages of the process. The performance analysis of the data reveals that the students obtained significant learning gains. The discussions among the students were useful, allowing the participation of students as protagonists of their own teaching-learning process and led to an increase in the percentage of correct answers to the proposed conceptual questions. The feedback given by the students demonstrates that the dynamics of the class motivates them to work and keeps them involved with the work. We can conclude that this systematics can be extended to other contents of Physics, stimulating the interaction between the students and the reflection on the phenomena that are being approached. For the application of this proposal were elaborated: previous tasks, a didactical sequence in moments and a bank of conceptual questions.

The aim of this thesis is to explore thinking processes of pupils when solving problems of geometric manipulative environment Parquets. I elaborated this environment Parquets and stated characteristic tasks. I have also described, in what mental schemes of mathematical concepts solving tasks may contribute. I made use of pupil's life experiences with the game Ubongo in the presentation of the environment for them. The diploma thesis is presenting the ideas of the constructivist approach to teaching mathematics. Necessary relevant theoretical concepts are defined in the theoretical part. The experiment with third grade, who attended the Math's club is the basis of this diploma thesis. Video recordings were transcribed in the form of a written report and these were analyzed in the aim of diagnosing and describing phenomena that are related to discussions of pupils, their cooperation within the group and the development of mathematical experience, knowledge, skills and abilities of the student, but also the personality and social competences. In the analysis I also pay attention to the role of the experimenter, who was also in the role of a teacher. In conclusion, I made recommendations that could improve the lesson.

The thesis deals with social communication in economic education with special focus on actual level of students' communication abilities within selected institutions. The special attention is paid to the aspects and the competencies that are crucial to be developed. The work is divided into two parts and two related research problems. The base of the thesis lies in the application of rhetorical and social communication aspects into economic subjects in which the influence of these aspects on the quality of presentation is researched with the help of experimental method and observation. The presentation is focused on economic topic that is presented by students to their colleagues. The evaluation is focused on final quality of presentation (evaluated with the help of selected aspects). Next key part of the thesis is aimed on the development of students' ability to give the arguments in economic subject with the help of active teaching methods. The influence of active teaching methods on students' knowledge is assessed. The students are divided into two groups; the first one is taught with the help of active teaching methods, the second one via classic frontal teaching method. The knowledge of the topic is evaluated by didactic test. The fundamental meaning of active teaching methods with focus on argumentation is highlighted because of its crucial importance for future students' acting in the labour market. The importance of differences between pretest and posttest is evaluated via Paired Two Sample t-test; the importance of differences between experimental and control group via Student's t-test. The main methods used in the work are experiment, observation, scaling, survey, didactic test and statistic interpretations such a Shapiro-Wilk test, F-test, Paired Two Sample t-test, Student's t-test. On the basis of the results there will be suggested integration of rhetorical and communication aspects and of the selected active teaching methods into teaching of economic subjects. The purpose of the work is to show the importance of communication aspects integration into teaching of economic subjects and to suggest the possibilities how to develop the communication aspects.

Actualmente en la ciudad de Chiclayo existe un alto déficit de espacios educativos, de cada 100 niños solo 85 estudian y solo el 71% de los centros educativos cuentan con los servicios básicos. El proyecto de Escuela pública en Chiclayo propone un espacio/ lugar donde se crean ambientes que inspiran el verdadero propósito de aprendizaje; donde el pensamiento convergente y divergente son herramientas de educación y se fomenta el razonamiento deductivo. Además, el proyecto contempla espacios destinados a la educación técnica y espacios complementarios a la comunidad y servicios. El concepto del proyecto refiere a una metodología de aprendizaje activa donde el alumno es el protagonista y cada ambiente está pensado para que la arquitectura sirva como facilitador del aprendizaje. Colores, planta libre y flexible, texturas, espacialidad, escalas, y una relación directa con el entorno y medio ambiente son los lineamientos del proyecto. En el diseño se consideran todos los espacios como espacios de aprendizaje “adentro y afuera” son áreas educativas donde el conocimiento se adquiere mediante experiencias. Además, se genera una conexión y dinamismo entre los ambientes mediante iluminación y ventilación natural. La flora nativa también forma parte del proyecto estableciendo sentido de pertenencia y generando recursos. Como parte del proyecto se proponen espacios de interacción y relación con la comunidad, se crea una alameda que parte el proyecto para darle unión al entorno. Espacios complementarios que generan una economía circular promueve responsabilidad y esfuerzo. Actividades complementarias que complementan tanto en conocimientos como en valores y habilidades para el desarrollo personal y profesional de cada alumno. / Currently in the city of Chiclayo there is a high deficit of educational spaces, only 85 out of every 100 children study and only 71% of the educational centers have basic services. The Chiclayo Public School project proposes a space/place where environments are created that inspire the true purpose of learning; where convergent and divergent thinking are educational tools and deductive reasoning is encouraged. In addition, the project contemplates spaces for technical education and complementary spaces for the community and services. The concept of the project refers to an active learning methodology where the student is the protagonist, and each environment is designed so that the architecture serves as a facilitator of learning. Colors, free and flexible floor plan, textures, spatiality, scales, and a direct relationship with the surroundings and environment are the guidelines of the project. The design considers all spaces as learning spaces "inside and outside"; they are educational areas where knowledge is acquired through experiences. In addition, connection and dynamism are generated between the environments through natural lighting and ventilation. Native flora is also part of the project, establishing a sense of belonging and generating resources. As part of the project, spaces for interaction and relationship with the community are proposed, a mall is created as part of the project to connect with the neighborhood. Complementary spaces that generate a circular economy promote responsibility and effort. Complementary activities to complement knowledge, values and skills for the personal and professional development of each student. / Tesis

Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur ett träningsprogram baserat på metoden Simultaneous Learning upplevs av lärare och elever. I bakgrundskapitlet beskrivs metoden som är skapad av Paul Harris och hur den förändrats över tid. Det finns endast lite tidigare forskning om metoden, på grund av att den är relativt ny, men den som hittats redogörs det för. Bakgrundskapitlet inkluderar också tidigare forskning om enskild musikundervisning och några viktiga problem som identifierats inom det området. Studien är en fallstudie där tre lärare, utan tidigare erfarenhet av Simultaneous Learning, fick delta i ett träningsprogram i metoden. Lärarna använde metoden i sin undervisning under 3-6 lektionstillfällen. Under datasamlingen intervjuades elever och lärare för att undersöka hur interventionen i form av träningsprogrammet upplevts. I resultatet framkommer att eleverna och lärarna upplevde skillnader, i form av till exempel nya moment i undervisningen såsom improvisation. De upplevde även att undervisningen efter träningsprogrammet påminde om den tidigare undervisningen. Det kan också lyftas fram att lärare upplevt att träningsprogrammet inom metoden gjorde det enklare att undervisa proaktivt. Ett sista relevant resultat var att elever uppskattade att momentet improvisation tillfördes i undervisningen. I diskussionen relateras studiens resultat till tidigare forskning samt till frågor kring hur olika perspektiv på lärande kan påverka synen på Simultaneous Learning som metod. Slutligen diskuteras hur Simultaneous Learning skulle kunna vidareutvecklas / The purpose of this study was to investigate how a training program based on Simultaneous Learning was perceived by teachers and students. In the background chapter the evolution of Simultaneous Learning, developed by Paul Harris, is traced. There is only little earlier research regarding the method since it is comparatively new. The research that was found is however presented. The background chapter also includes earlier research in the wider field of music-studio teaching, and the problems that have been identified within this style of teaching are presented. The study is a case-study where three teachers, with no prior experience with the method, participated in a training program and later proceeded to teach a selection of students with the method for between 3-6 lessons. To gather data semi-structured interviews with both the teachers and the students was conducted, to investigate how the intervention was perceived. Results show that both teachers and students noticed differences and similarities with their previous style of teaching. Some significant results include that teachers experienced that Simultaneous Learning was helpful in creating a pro-active teaching and students experienced the introduction of improvisation to the lesson as positive. In the discussion the results are related to earlier research and how different perspectives on the role of a teacher can affect how Simultaneous Learning is perceived as a valuable tool or not. Lastly, some suggestions on how the method could be further improved is suggested and discussed.

The thesis involves the usage and definition of folktale in theory and practice. The thesis consists of theoretic and practical parts. The theoretic part briefly deals with comparative law that used the folktale as one of the suitable material to study. It also compares different attitudes of defining and classifying folktales. Afterwards in the theoretic part there is introduced the influence of folktales on the pre-school and middle-school children. One part is devoted to narratology as a theory of narration and to particular kinds of folktales. The practical part introduces the preparation of worldwide folktale reading-book. It contains the way of selection of the literature, the structure of particular chapters of reading-book and creation of CD. Further there is the chapter Methods of active teaching, where the methods, responding to the trends of nowadays education, are introduced. The practical part ends with two chapters from the prepared reading-book, devoted to Italian and Greece folktales. The chapters fully correspond to the structure of the prepared reading-book. They also contain worksheets using some methods of active teaching.

Thus understanding the degree of teachers’ knowledge about methodologies and the influence of initial and continuing formation in this process, moreover seeks to reveal what knowledge is involved in the teaching practices and from where it comes. It was used a case study through participant observation as a strategy of research and interviews as a means of data collection. The theoretical framework revisited the work of teachers and their practices from the perspectives of teachers’ knowledge and the main assumptions of active teaching based in authors like Tardif and Pimenta, besides theorists such as Piaget and Vygotsky in the review of the concepts of Piaget’s theory and Vygotskian socio-interactionism. In the analysis of the results it is possible to perceive the influences of experience as an important mark in the science/chemistry teaching besides the gaps in the early training of these teachers concerning to the active teaching aspects which demonstrate a misalignment between the proposals for the teaching of nature sciences, provided by LDB/96 and the training of these teachers. Finally the findings must be observed according to the process of scientific literacy indicating possibilities to make the teaching of Chemistry a factor in the formation of the student in his social context from a teaching based on the active construction of knowledge / Este estudo investiga a prática pedagógica de professores de Química do ensino médio e a relação dessas ações com o processo formador e as influências presentes na ação pedagógica da cada professor em seu exercício profissional buscando tipificar esses profissionais e relacionar tais práticas aos preceitos recomendados pelas orientações curriculares do ensino médio as quais prevêem condutas baseadas no ensino ativo/construtivista. Dessa forma busca perceber o grau de conhecimento dos professores sobre essas metodologias e a influência da formação inicial e continuada nesse processo, além disso, busca desvelar quais os saberes envolvidos nas práticas pedagógicas e de onde vem o conhecimento empregado na práxis da sala de aula. Utilizou-se o estudo de caso, através da observação-participante como estratégia de investigação e da entrevista como meio de coleta dos dados. O arcabouço teórico revisitou o trabalho do professor e suas práticas a partir da perspectiva dos saberes docentes e das principais premissas do ensino ativo fundamentado em autores como Tardif e Pimenta, além de teóricos como Piaget e Vygotsky na revisão dos conceitos da Teoria Psicogenética piagetiana e do Sócio-interacionismo vigotskiano. Na análise dos resultados é possível perceber as influências dos saberes de experiência como uma marca importante no ensino de ciências/química, além da existência de lacunas na formação inicial desses professores quanto aos aspectos do ensino ativo demonstrando um desalinhamento entre as propostas para o ensino de ciências da natureza, previstas pela LDB/96 e a formação desses professores. Por fim faz-se a reflexão dos achados à luz do processo de alfabetização científica indicando possibilidades para tornar o ensino de Química um fator de formação social do aluno em seu contexto a partir de um ensino pautado na construção ativa do conhecimento.

[ES] La presente tesis doctoral parte de la pregunta de investigación ¿es la Gamificación una metodología eficaz para el aprendizaje de historia de la educación española en la formación universitaria de futuros docentes? Cuatro ejes, explícitos en esta pregunta, son los que estructuran esta investigación educativa. El primero es la metodología de Gamificación, que fundamenta y conforma la investigación llevada a cabo. El segundo es la historia de la educación española, el contenido impartido a través de la experiencia gamificada. El tercero representa el contexto universitario en el que se desarrolla la investigación. Finalmente, el cuarto muestra la población con la que se hace el estudio de campo, alumnado de los grados de Magisterio de Infantil y Primaria. Este último eje tiene especial relevancia, ya que el desarrollo de investigación acción con futuros docentes se integra en la cartografía de la buena docencia universitaria (Paricio et al., 2019) y en la investigación desde el vínculo y la transferibilidad del conocimiento pedagógico durante el proceso. Los últimos estudios sobre Gamificación abogan por extraer resultados que evidencien el efecto de la Gamificación en variables más allá de la motivación. Además, enfatizan la necesidad de abordar la investigación desde un enfoque cualitativo y cuantitativo. La presente tesis atiende a estas premisas, por ello, con la finalidad de dar respuesta a la pregunta de investigación y comprobar las diferentes hipótesis, se acota un conjunto de variables cualitativas y cuantitativas. Las más significativas son metodología de Gamificación, competencias específicas, competencias transversales, motivación, rendimiento académico, rol docente y juego como recurso didáctico. Además, se utiliza un método mixto de investigación que combina un análisis cualitativo, ratificado con diferentes análisis cuantitativos para aportar validez ecológica a la investigación y mayor rigor a las conclusiones. Entre las conclusiones más relevantes destacan la satisfacción de los sujetos participantes hacia la experiencia gamificada, la mejora de las competencias específicas y el desarrollo de diferentes competencias transversales. Se logra también un incremento en la motivación y un buen rendimiento académico. Respecto al rol docente, la valoración es positiva, al igual que el juego como recurso didáctico. Los diferentes análisis también aportan conclusiones destacables relacionadas con el carácter ecléctico de la metodología, el éxito en la asistencia, la capacidad de atención, el grado de participación, la evaluación, la atención a la diversidad de alumnado o la percepción del propio proceso de aprendizaje. Además, esta investigación acción considera los últimos estudios en Gamificación e investigación educativa y responde a las demandas y retos que estos plantean. De este modo, trata de lograr la proyección internacional a la que se aspira con esta tesis doctoral y colabora en la creación de conocimiento empírico en el campo de la Gamificación. / [CA] La present tesi doctoral part de la pregunta d'investigació ¿és la Gamificació una metodologia eficaç per a l'aprenentatge d'història de l'educació espanyola en la formació universitària de futurs docents? Quatre eixos, explícits en aquesta pregunta, són els que estructuren aquesta investigació educativa. El primer és la metodologia de Gamificació, que fonamenta i conforma la investigació duta a terme. El segon és la història de l'educació espanyola, el contingut impartit a través de l'experiència gamificada. El tercer representa el context universitari en el qual es desenvolupa la investigació. Finalment, el quart mostra la població amb la qual es fa l'estudi de camp, alumnat dels graus de Magisteri d'Infantil i Primària. Aquest últim eix té especial rellevància, ja que el desenvolupament d'investigació acció amb futurs docents s'integra en la cartografia de la bona docència universitària (Paricio et al., 2019) i en la investigació des del vincle i la transferibilitat del coneixement pedagògic durant el procés. Els últims estudis sobre Gamificació advoquen per extraure resultats que evidencien l'efecte de la Gamificació en variables més enllà de la motivació. A més, emfatitzen la necessitat d'abordar la investigació des d'un enfocament qualitatiu i quantitatiu. La present tesi atén aquestes premisses, per això, amb la finalitat de donar resposta a la pregunta d'investigació i comprovar les diferents hipòtesis, es delimita un conjunt de variables qualitatives i quantitatives. Les més significatives són metodologia de Gamificació, competències específiques, competències transversals, motivació, rendiment acadèmic, rol docent i joc com a recurs didàctic. A més, s'utilitza un mètode mixt d'investigació que combina una anàlisi qualitativa, ratificat amb diferents anàlisis quantitatives per a aportar validesa ecològica a la investigació i major rigor a les conclusions. Entre les conclusions més rellevants destaquen la satisfacció dels subjectes participants cap a l'experiència gamificada, la millora de les competències específiques i el desenvolupament de diferents competències transversals. S'aconsegueix també un increment en la motivació i un bon rendiment acadèmic. Respecte al rol docent, la valoració és positiva, igual que el joc com a recurs didàctic. Les diferents anàlisis també aporten conclusions destacables relacionades amb el caràcter eclèctic de la metodologia, l'èxit en l'assistència, la capacitat d'atenció, el grau de participació, l'avaluació, l'atenció a la diversitat d'alumnat o la percepció del propi procés d'aprenentatge. A més, aquesta investigació acció considera els últims estudis en Gamificació i investigació educativa i respon a les demandes i reptes que aquests plantegen. D'aquesta manera, tracta d'aconseguir la projecció internacional a la qual s'aspira amb aquesta tesi doctoral i col·labora en la creació de coneixement empíric en el camp de la Gamificació. / [EN] The forthcoming doctoral thesis stems from the research question, is gamification an efficient method for learning the history of Spanish education in university training for future teachers? Four themes, which are explicit in the question itself, will give structure to this educational research. The first is the methodology of Gamification, which constitutes the grounds on which this investigation is based. The second is the history of Spanish education, the content delivered via a gamified experience. The third represents the university context in which the research takes place. Lastly, the fourth shows the demographic of those involved in the field study, alumni from Primary and Nursery School Teaching university degrees. This last theme is particularly relevant, as developing action research with future teachers is an integral part of mapping out quality university teaching (Paricio et al., 2019) and of binding research and transferability of pedagogic knowledge during the process. The most recent studies on Gamification advocate for extracting results that underline the effects of Gamification in variables beyond motivation. Furthermore, they emphasize the need to approach the research from a qualitative and quantitative point of view. Thereupon, the present doctoral thesis handles these propositions with the aim to answer the research question and prove different hypotheses, narrowing down a group of qualitative and quantitative variables. The most significant are Gamification methodology, specific competences, transversal competences, motivation, academic performance, the role of the lecturer and games as a teaching resource. In addition, a mixed research method is used which combines qualitative analysis, reinforced by different quantitative analyses in order to provide ecological validity to the study and more rigour to the conclusions. Among the most relevant conclusions, the following stand out: the satisfaction of the participating subjects towards the gamified experience, progress in specific competences, and the development of different transversal competences. Regarding the lecturer's role, the assessment is positive, as well as games as a teaching resource. The different analyses also provide noteworthy conclusions related to the eclectic nature of the methodology, attendance success, attention capacity, degree of participation, assessment, attention to student diversity or the perception of the process of learning itself. In addition, this action research examines the latest Gamification and educational research and answers the demands and challenges that they posit. In so doing, it attempts to achieve the international outreach to which this doctoral thesis aspires, and it assists in the creation of empiric knowledge in the field of Gamification. / Edo Agustín, E.

Nowadays, with the high unemployment rates in Brazil in 2016-2017, and the need for continued formation and aca-demic education to maintain or to get a job, they make the University degree courses, espe-cially those that offered in the distance modalities, a great option for busy citizens and for people who needs flexible schedules to study. It is clear that the costs of this type of educa-tion are lower, because students don’t have transportation costs, nor a classroom at Universi-ties, so educational Institutions investing less in building infrastructure and virtual student can study at home. In this context, the growth of the distance modality is impressive, but we still have many challenges ahead, since many students of this modality are not “digital natives” and they tend to give up the courses because of technological problems and adjustment on the pedagogical model. According to data from the latest EAD Census BR 2015, there are 5,048,912 students enrolled in the modality, that is 1,180,296 more students registered than in 2014. The dropout rates are also high, they are ranging from 26% to 50%, however, Distance Education is already part of the educational context of the 21st century and this modality has recently been contributing to some of its strategies and digital tools iin face-to-face teaching, since the profile of students has also changed rapidly and, in the near future, they will be more familiar with technological devices, and with interactive activities,that will provide the inte-gration of modalities: blended learning. In time of changes, the institutional challenges are many: pedagogical, technological and even in the adjustment of business model. This study investigated the pedagogical approach and the structure of digital courses, tutor´s models and the impact of regulatory changes for the sector. The purpose of this study is to analyze two undergraduate courses: one from a private univer-sity and another from a public college institution, in order to of current legislation, identifying their respective methodologies and strategies, which guided the structuring of their courses, in order to Analyze the theoretical bases that support the diverse and varied practices in the area. Also check what tools are available in their Learning Management System – LMS and how they help the learning process in this new millennium. / Los cursos superiores de la modalidad por distancia han crecido en Brasil por diversas razones, entre ellas: costos más bajos, flexibilidad de los horarios y calidad de los recursos tecnológi-cos. Actualmente, con el alto índice de desempleo en Brasil y la necesidad de capacitación continuada y formación académica, para el mantenimiento del empleo y la vuelta al mercado de trabajo, hacen de los cursos de graduación ofrecidos en las modalidades por distancia una óptima opción, para aquellos demasiado Ocupados y también para los dispuestos a gastar me-nos.En este contexto, es visible el crecimiento de esa modalidad por distancia y los números impresionan, todavía tenemos muchos desafíos por delante, ya que los estudiantes no son na-tivos digitales y tienden a evadirse ante los diversos problemas de orden tecnológico y ajuste al modelo pedagógico . En acuerdo con los datos del último censo EAD, en el año 2015, hay 5.048.912 de los alumnos matriculados en esa modalidad, es decir, 1.180.296 estudiantes re-gistrados, más que en 2014.Los índices de evasión también son altos: varían de 26% hasta 50%, sin embargo, la Educación por Distancia ya hace parte del contexto educativo del siglo XXI y recientemente, ven contribuyendo con algunas de sus estrategias y herramientas digita-les en la enseñanza presencial, ya que el perfil de los estudiantes también se ha modificado rápidamente y en el futuro próximo, esos presentarán una mayor familiaridad con los disposi-tivos tecnológicos, así como la preferencia por las actividades interactivas, favoreciendo la integración de las modalidades. Ante este escenario de cambios, los retos Institucionales son muchos: pedagógicos, tecnológicos y hasta en el ajuste de modelo de negocios. Esta tesis tiene como objetivo investigar las propuestas pedagógicas y tendencias para la estructuración de los cursos de contenido digital, modelos de tutoría e impactos de los cambios en la reglamentaci-ón para el sector. El objeto de este estudio está orientado al análisis de los cursos de gradua-ción: uno de Institución particular de enseñanza y otro de pública, bajo la luz de la legislación vigente, identificando sus respectivas metodologías y estrategias, que orientaron la estructura-ción de sus cursos, a fin de analizar las bases teóricas que sostienen a las diversas y variadas prácticas en el área. Comprobar, también, qué herramientas están disponibles en sus respecti-vos Ambientes Virtuales de Aprendizaje – AVA- y como ellas auxilian el aprendizaje de este nuevo milenio. / Os cursos superiores da modalidade a distância têm crescido no Brasil por diversas razões, dentre elas: custos mais baixos, flexibilidade de horários, qualidade dos recursos tecnológicos. Atualmente, com o alto índice de desemprego no Brasil, ocasionadas em parte pelos escânda-los políticos de 2016 e 2017, e a necessidade de capacitação continuada e formação acadêmi-ca, para manutenção do emprego ou retorno ao mercado de trabalho, fazem dos cursos de gra-duação ofertados nas modalidades a distância uma ótima opção, para aqueles demasiadamente ocupados e também para os dispostos a gastar menos. Neste contexto, é notório o crescimento da modalidade a distância e os números impressionam, mas temos ainda muitos desafios pela frente, já que muitos estudantes desta modalidade não são nativos digitais e tendem a evadir diante dos diversos problemas de ordem tecnológica e ajuste ao modelo pedagógico. De acor-do com os dados do último Censo EAD. BR 2015, existem 5.048.912 alunos matriculados na modalidade, ou seja, 1.180.296 estudantes registrados a mais do que em 2014. Os índices de evasão também são altos: variam de 26% a 50%, no entanto, a Educação a Distância já faz parte do contexto educacional do século XXI e esta modalidade, recentemente, vem contribu-indo com algumas de suas estratégias e ferramentas digitais no ensino presencial, uma vez que o perfil dos estudantes também têm se modificado rapidamente e, num futuro próximo, estes apresentarão maior familiaridade com os dispositivos tecnológicos, bem como preferência pe-las atividades interativas, favorecendo a integração das modalidades. Diante deste cenário de mudanças, os desafios Institucionais são muitos: pedagógicos, tecnológicos e até no ajuste de modelo de negócio. Esta tese tem como objetivo levantar as propostas pedagógicas e tendên-cias para a estruturação cursos, de conteúdo digital, modelos de tutoria e impactos das mu-danças na regulamentação para o setor. O objeto deste estudo está voltado à análise de dois cursos de graduação: um de Instituição particular de ensino e outro de pública, sob a luz da legislação vigente, identificando suas respectivas metodologias e estratégias, que orientaram a estruturação de seus cursos, a fim de analisar as bases teóricas que sustentam as diversas e variadas práticas na área. Verificar, também, que ferramentas estão disponíveis nos seus res-pectivos Ambientes Virtuais de Aprendizagem – AVAs e como elas auxiliam a aprendizagem deste novo milênio.
