Esta pesquisa aborda a motivação para aprender música em ambientes de aprendizagem virtual sob uma perspectiva teórica sociocognitiva da motivação. Tem como objetivo geral investigar os processos motivacionais de estudantes em interações online, em aulas de violão a distância, no curso de Licenciatura em Música da Universidade do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (UERN), com base na Teoria da Autodeterminação (RYAN; DECI, 2004; DECI; RYAN, 2008a). E como objetivos específicos analisar as percepções de satisfação das necessidades de autonomia, competência e pertencimento dos estudantes nas interações online; identificar a qualidade motivacional dos estudantes para aprender violão em interações online; discutir influências socioambientais sobre a motivação de estudantes; verificar as manifestações das necessidades psicológicas básicas em interações síncronas e assíncronas e destacar as ferramentas de interações online que auxiliaram no processo educacional a distância. A metodologia utilizada neste estudo foi a pesquisa-ação integral (MORIN A., 2004). Os dados analisados foram coletados por meio de observação participante, entrevistas semiestruturadas, filmagens das interações realizadas nas videoconferências e registros de diálogos em fóruns síncronos e assíncronos. Os resultados apontaram que a principal motivação dos estudantes não era a intrínseca. Em vez disso, a motivação foi considerada complexa, multifacetada e sensível a determinadas situações. As interações síncronas e assíncronas, da forma complexa e complementar proposta nesse estudo, puderam suprir as necessidades psicológicas básicas dos estudantes, bem como possibilitar uma alternativa viável e efetiva para a formação musical desses estudantes. / This research approaches the motivation in learning music in virtual learning environments under the sociocognitive theoretical perspective of motivation. The research aims, as general objective, to investigate the students’ motivational processes in online interaction in guitar classes through distance education in the Degree in Music at the State University of Rio Grande of Norte (UERN), based on the Self-Determination Theory (RYAN; DECI, 2004; RYAN; DECI, 2006). The specific objectives sought to analyze the perceptions satisfaction of the needs for autonomy, competence and belonging of students in online interaction; to identify the quality motivational of the students in those online interactions; to discuss the environmental influences on the students’ motivation, to verify the manifestations of basic psychological needs for synchronous and asynchronous interactions, and to highlight the tools that helped the online interactions in a distance education process. The methodology used on this study was the educational action-research (MORIN, 2004). The analyzed data were collected through participant observation, semi structured interviews, footage of the interactions made in videoconferencing and conversation records in synchronous and asynchronous forums. The results show that the major motivation of the students was not intrinsic. Instead, the motivation was considered complex, multifaceted and sensitive in determined situations. The synchronous and asynchronous interactions, in the complex and complementary way proposed in this study, could provision the basic psychological needs of the students, as well as, enable a viable and effective alternative to the musical education of these students.

Social media has become a prime tool in communicating during crises. Ongoing COVID-19 pandemic illustrates this trend strongly with the Canadian government conveying messaging through many platforms. In this thesis, we aimed to explore how Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and Health Canada (HC) communicate with Canadians through social media, namely Twitter. Based on insights from social media practices drawn from work by Wendling et al. (2013); Lin et al. (2016) and from social mediated crisis communication theory of Austin et al. (2012), we sought to find what type of social media strategies adopted to execute crisis communication during COVID-19 pandemic. We also aimed at understanding to what extent these reflect the theoretical framework of the present study. To undertake this research, we opted for a mix of quantitative and qualitative analysis enabled by thematic analysis to identify categories of meaning and their trend. We found that social media strategies adopted by PHAC and HC have many aspects in common with the theoretical framework, yet they offer many nuances in practices driven mainly by the length of the crisis and the uncertainty it has caused. This thesis brings theory into practice by researching an ongoing crisis, gauging social media use practices against messaging strategies. It also calls on the need for updating theories and good practices in light of the outcomes of the COVID-19 crisis.

The present thesis explores how interaction is initiated in multi-party meetings in Adobe Connect, 7.0, with a particular focus on how co-presence and mutual availability are established through the preambles of 18 meetings held in Spanish without a moderator. Taking Conversation Analysis (CA) as a methodological point of departure, this thesis comprises four different studies, each of them analyzing a particular phenomenon within the interaction of the preambles in a multimodal environment that allows simultaneous interaction through video, voice and text-chat. The first study (Artículo I) shows how participants solve jointly the issue of availability in a technological environment where being online is not necessarily understood as being available for communicating. The second study (Artículo II) focuses on the beginning of the audiovisual interaction; in particular on how participants check the right functioning of the audiovisual mode. The third study (Artículo III) explores silences within the interaction of the preamble. It shows that the length of gaps and lapses become a significant aspect the preambles and how they are connected to the issue of availability.  Finally, the four study introduces the notion of modal alignment, an interactional phenomenon that systematically appears in the beginnings of the encounters, which seems to be used and understood  as a strategy for the establishment of mutual availability and negotiation of the participation framework. As a whole, this research shows how participants, in order to establish mutual co-presence and availability, adapt to a particular technology in terms of participation management, deploying strategies and conveying successive actions which, as it is the case of the activation of their respective webcams, seem to be understood as predictable within the intricate process of establishing mutual availability before the meeting starts.

This dissertation aims at the analysis of online interactions that influence the effectiveness of collaborative learning among participants of the forums on the environment and indexed-ProInfo Pilot Course Management Courses at the Open University of Brazil in Maceió-Alagoas. The methodology adopted to conduct the research was a qualitative type, in a case study approach and research techniques with systematic observation in the forums of course, the use of interviews and questionnaires to the working of the samples, and bibliographical studies based on Dillenbourg (1996), Mercado (2006, Silva (2006), Vygotsky (1979/1996), Yin (2005) among others. The type of sampling of the research was by events in the forums of the course, ie, the selection board was held in the presence of online collaborative interactions among students from four disciplines offered in the initial semesters of the course. For data analysis we selected four major samples, ie the selection of four forums with the presence of potential online collaborative interactions among students. Through analysis of the interview with the academic advisor of the four first semesters of the course was possible to rescue some clippings structuring the course, as functions of the major players in the forums of course, that is, the teacher and tutor students. For the analysis of questionnaires sent via conventional email and webmail e-Proinfo environment for teachers and students from selected samples of 11 teachers 0% returned the questionnaires, while 14% of the 85 students returned the survey instrument. For the analysis of selected forums, there are minimum collaborative online interactions between students, minimum collaborative online interactions of teachers to students and the presence of potential collaborative online interactions of students to teachers. Given the focus of the interactive process as a mechanism conducive to participation and the formalization of collaborative learning in data analysis was possible to identify possible indicators for the construction of collaborative learning in the forums of course investigated and possibly a contribution in courses offered in Education Online / A presente dissertação objetiva a análise de interações online que influenciam na efetivação da aprendizagem colaborativa entre os participantes dos fóruns indexados no ambiente e-ProInfo do Curso Piloto de Administração a Distância do Sistema Universidade Aberta do Brasil em Maceió-Alagoas. A metodologia adotada para execução da pesquisa foi do tipo qualitativa, numa abordagem de estudo de caso e tendo como técnicas de pesquisa a observação sistemática nos fóruns do curso, a aplicação de entrevista e de questionários aos atuantes das amostras, e estudos bibliográficos fundamentados em Dillenbourg (1996), Mercado (2006, Silva (2006), Vygotsky (1979/1996), Yin (2005) dentre outros. O tipo de amostragem da pesquisa foi por eventos nos fóruns do curso, ou seja, a seleção dos fóruns foi realizada na presença de interações online colaborativas entre os discentes das disciplinas ofertadas nos quatro semestres iniciais do curso. Para análise de dados foram selecionadas quatro amostras principais, ou seja, a seleção de quatro fóruns com presença potenciais de interações online colaborativas entre os discentes. Por meio da análise da entrevista com o coordenador pedagógico dos quatro semestres iniciais do curso foi possível resgatar alguns recortes estruturantes do curso, como funções dos principais atuantes nos fóruns do curso, isto é, do docente tutor e do discente. Em relação às análises dos questionários enviados via e-mail convencional e webmail do ambiente e-Proinfo aos docentes e discentes das amostras selecionadas, dos 11 docentes 0% retornaram os questionários enviados, enquanto dos 85 discentes 14% retornaram o instrumento de pesquisa. Em relação às análises dos fóruns selecionados, verificam-se mínimas interações online colaborativas entre discente, mínimas interações online colaborativas do docente aos discentes e a presença de interações online colaborativas potenciais dos discentes ao docente. Tendo em vista, a focalização do processo interativo como mecanismo propício à participação e a formalização da aprendizagem colaborativa nas análises de dados foi possível identificar possíveis indicadores para construção da aprendizagem colaborativa nos fóruns do curso investigado e possivelmente numa contribuição em cursos ofertados na Educação Online

Cette recherche a pour objet les interactions en ligne sur un réseau social numérique dédié à l’enseignement / apprentissage du français langue étrangère (FLE) et s’interroge sur la façon dont l’espace en ligne s’intègre au dispositif de formation pour fournir des contextes nouveaux pour les interactions sociales et l’apprentissage de la langue. La recherche repose sur une analyse écologique d’usages dans un contexte universitaire homoglotte d’apprentissage de la langue et une analyse des discours des différents acteurs pour mettre au jour leurs perceptions du dispositif et de ses affordances ainsi que leur appropriation de l’espace en ligne. Ce travail se veut contribuer à élaborer des outils pertinents pour l’analyse de la participation et à une meilleure compréhension de ce qui se construit dans les interactions sociales, pour les participants, dans le cadre d’une communication médiatisée en contexte pédagogique. L’analyse s’intéresse (1) aux activités participatives et à leurs formats conversationnels et énonciatifs, (2) à la pluralité des modes de participation et des modes relationnels d’engagement social qui s’installent sur le réseau socio-pédagogique, et (3) aux régimes spatiaux et attentionnels propres aux espaces numériques. L’étude montre que le réseau socio-pédagogique est peu utilisé et les usages observables profitent peu des propriétés d’ouverture, conversationnelles et sociales du réseau. Si un certain nombre d’affordances sont perçues par les participants, elles restent peu actualisées dans le cadre de notre étude. Face à ces usages limités, l’analyse tente de repérer dans les discours et les activités proposées, les freins et obstacles à des changements de pratiques. A partir de ce constat, la recherche propose des pistes didactiques tenant compte des enjeux sociaux et relationnels afin que le réseau socio-pédagogique puisse plus distinctement être perçu comme un espace médiateur d’activités sociales de littératie numérique. / This research aims at studying online interactions in a social network that is specific to teaching and learning French as a Foreign Language (FFL). It questions the way the virtual environment incorporates with the training device so to provide new contexts of interactions and language learning.The data used for this research belong to an academic and language learning context which enabled an ecological analysis of the uses.Furthermore a discourse analysis from various participants was undertaken to highlight their impressions of the device, the noticed affordances and their appropriation with the online environment. This study contributes at elaborating useful tools for the analysis of participation and a better understanding of social interactions in the case of a mediated communication in a pedagogical context.The analyses are based on (1) participative activities, their conversational and enunciative format, (2) the various participation modes and relationnal social commitment that flourishes in a socio-pedagogical network and (3) the spatial and attentionnal features that are specific to a virtual learning environment.The study shows that there are few uses of the socio-pedagogical network, and the various ones that have been noticed did not benefit from the network’s wide access, conversational and social design.As a certain number of affordances have been noted by the participants, few of them were used in the case of our study. Considering those limited uses, the analysis tries to spot the restraints and obstacles to these changing practices by taking into account the participant’s discourse and suggested activities. From this observation, the research suggests didactical guidelines that include this social and relational challenge - and to consider this socio-pedagogical network as an environment which mediates social activities and digital litteracy.
