Esta dissertação relata a experiência de um estudo realizado com alunas do Ensino Médio de uma escola pública do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, cuja finalidade foi promover o processo de ensino-aprendizagem com atividades relacionadas ao campo científico, por meio de um grupo de pesquisa em ciências e com o apoio de um Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem (AVA) para realização dessas atividades. Com essa iniciativa, procurou-se disseminar ações de pesquisa entre as estudantes, oportunizando debates e estimulando a produção de pensamentos através dos conteúdos trabalhados. A pesquisa consistiu em dez encontros presenciais, que ocorreram nas dependências da própria escola, utilizando-se da modalidade da pesquisa-ação como método de investigação e da Análise Textual Discursiva (ATD) para analisar os dados. O estudo evidenciou que, por meio dessas atividades e discussões, as alunas puderam compreender a importância e as contribuições da ciência e da pesquisa para a construção do conhecimento científico, bem como a melhoria das ações na comunidade onde vivem. Além disso, esse contato com a pesquisa científica pôde modificar o modo como elas veem o mundo a sua volta, o que poderá refletir na formação de cada uma enquanto cidadã. / This dissertation reports the experience of a study carried out with high school students of a public school in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, whose purpose was to promote the teaching-learning process with activities related to the scientific area, through a research group in sciences and with the support of a Virtual Learning Environment to carry out these activities. With this initiative, we sought to disseminate research actions among the students, providing debates and stimulating the production of thoughts through the subjects worked. The research consisted of ten face-to-face meetings that took place inside the school itself, using the research-action modality as an investigation method and the Discursive Textual Analysis to analyze the data. The study evidenced that, through these activities and discussions, the students were able to understand the importance and contributions of science and research to the development of scientific knowledge, and improvement of actions in the community where they live. In addition, this contact with scientific research could change the way they see the world around them, which could reflect in the formation of each one as a citizen.

A busca do conhecimento para melhoria da assistência de enfermagem nos serviços de saúde faz-se rotineiramente e a adoção de novas tecnologias educacionais vem colaborar, de forma relevante, para educação permanente dos profissionais. Inúmeros assuntos pertinentes ao cuidado podem ser aprendidos e discutidos em ambientes virtuais, como, por exemplo, os eventos adversos. O presente estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver um ambiente virtual de aprendizagem (AVA) sobre gerenciamento em eventos adversos para educação permanente de enfermeiros, abordando as temáticas: úlcera por pressão, erros de medicação, flebite, queda e perda de sonda nasogastroenteral. O referencial pedagógico foi fundamentado nos estudos de Gagné (1980) que considera que o processo de aprendizagem é baseado na teoria de processamento de informação e constitui-se em oito fases (fase de motivação, de apreensão, de aquisição, de retenção, de rememoração, de generalização, de desempenho e de feedback). A metodologia, uma pesquisa aplicada, utilizou o Modelo de desenvolvimento de programas de Instrução Auxiliada pelo Computador (Computer Assisted Instruction - CAI) proposto por Price (1991), composto de três estágios: 1. planejamento inicial; 2. planejamento e desenvolvimento do conteúdo instrucional; 3. avaliação e revisão. No estágio 1 foi caracterizado o público alvo, escolhido o tema abordado, bem como definidos os objetivos educacionais, os recursos disponíveis, o design instrucional e as técnicas de modelagem. O desenvolvimento do conteúdo (estágio 2) foi realizado em Módulos, estes constituídos das seguintes estruturas: Identificação do Módulo, Objetivos de Aprendizagem, Conteúdos, Exercícios, Referências e Textos de Apoio. A avaliação técnica e revisão do conteúdo inserido no AVA desenvolvido (estágio 3) será realizado por especialistas da área de informática e enfermagem em estudo futuro. O AVA foi desenvolvido na linguagem HTML (Hyper Text Makep Language) utilizando o programa Microsoft Office Word 2003®. Os exercícios de avaliação inseridos em cada módulo foram criados pela autora deste estudo com a utilização do programa Hot Potatoes versão 6.0 para Windows. Conclui-se que a metodologia adotada na construção do AVA foi adequada para o alcance do objetivo proposto. Como metas futuras, a autora desse estudo avaliará o produto desenvolvido e verificará a possibilidade de seu uso nos serviços de enfermagem, contribuindo com a educação permanente dos enfermeiros. O AVA sobre gerenciamento em eventos adversos nos serviços de enfermagem está disponível para acesso no endereço eletrônico: <http://www.eerp.usp.br/nepien/eventosadversos>. / The search for knowledge to improve nursing care in health services occurs on a routinely basis and the adoption of new educational technologies collaborates, in a relevant way, for professionals\' permanent education. Countless subjects pertaining to care can be learned and discussed in virtual environments, such as adverse events. The present study aimed to develop a virtual learning environment (VLE) on management in adverse events for nurses\' permanent education, addressing the themes: pressure ulcer, medication errors, phlebitis, fall and loss of nasogastroenteral feeding. The pedagogical framework was grounded in Gagné\'s (1980) studies, which considers that the learning process is based on the theory of information processing and consists of eight phases (phase of motivation, apprehension, acquisition, retention, remembering, generalization, performance and feedback). This applied research used the Model of development of Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) programs proposed by Price (1991), consisting of three stages: 1. initial planning; 2. planning and development of instruction content; 3. assessment and review. At stage 1, target public was characterized, theme approached was chosen, and the educational objects, available resources, instructional design and modeling techniques were defined. The content development (stage 2) was carried out in Modules, comprised of the following structures: Identification of the Module, Learning objectives, Contents, Exercises, References and Support Texts. The technical assessment and review of the content inserted in the developed virtual learning environment (stage 3) will be carried out by informatics and nursing experts in a future study. The VLE was developed in HTML (Hypertext Makeup Language) using the program Microsoft Office Word 2003®. The evaluation exercises inserted in each module were created by the study author using the program Hot Potatoes version 6.0 for Windows. It is concluded that the methodology used in the construction of the VLE was appropriate for achieving the proposed objectives. As future aims, the author will assess the developed product and verify the possibility of using it in nursing services, contributing for nurses\' permanent education. The VLE on management in adverse events in nursing services is available at the URL: <http://www.eerp.usp.br/nepien/eventosadversos>.

As a growing number of users who use the Internet via computer or mobile phone, there is a growing demand for new knowledge through virtual learning environments (VLE). This software can collaborate in the teaching-learning process, but barriers still exist for those who want to study or teach through technology. This research makes a study on the use of virtual learning environment Moodle, which offered advantages and disadvantages. According to research data, the results obtained with the use of the environment revealed the lack of trained teachers, and hence no interaction of these with their students. This delay hinders the optimal use of the environment which could contribute greatly to the construction of knowledge. This difficulty occurred since the early deployment of the environment in PUC / SP, Campus Sorocaba. Research shows, however, its implementation can be further adjusted and improved if there are incentives for those who deposited the environment and specific training for teachers that will encourage students to use it. Certification of use of the environment for curriculum, reading and questionnaire prior to classes to make better use of questioning and learning processes encourage students to make use of this new virtual learning environment / Nas últimas décadas, o desenvolvimento acelerado da tecnologia provocou um descompasso entre o ensino-aprendizagem e a metodologia de acesso a esses novos recursos. À medida que cresce o número de usuários que usam a Internet por meio de computador ou celular, cresce a procura por novos conhecimentos através dos ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem (AVA). Estes softwares podem colaborar no processo de ensino-aprendizagem, mas ainda existem barreiras para quem estuda ou quer ensinar por meio da tecnologia. Esta pesquisa faz um estudo sobre a utilização do ambiente virtual de aprendizagem MOODLE, o qual ofereceu vantagens e desvantagens. Segundo dados pesquisados, os resultados obtidos com o uso do ambiente revelaram a falta de treinamento dos professores e a consequente não interação desses com os seus alunos. Essa defasagem dificulta o uso otimizado do ambiente, que poderia contribuir muito para a construção de conhecimento. Tal dificuldade se deu desde o início da implantação do ambiente na PUC/SP, no campus Sorocaba. A pesquisa mostra que, no entanto, sua implementação ainda pode ser ajustada e melhorada se houver incentivos para quem depositou o ambiente e treinamentos específicos para os docentes que incitarão os alunos a usá-lo. A certificação do uso do ambiente para fins de currículo, leitura e questionário anterior às aulas para um melhor aproveitamento e questionamento dos processos de aprendizagem estimularão os alunos a fazerem uso desse novo ambiente virtual de aprendizagem

A educação superior no Brasil exige que as instituições de ensino procurem melhorar suas práticas educacionais, com o objetivo de aumentar a qualidade de seus cursos. Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido um protocolo para avaliação do uso de Ambientes Virtuais de Aprendizagem em Instituições de Ensino Superior, com base em uma pesquisa sobre a utilização de ferramentas e recursos de AVA. Para tratamento dos dados do diagnóstico de utilização, são propostas duas metodologias multicritério de apoio à decisão, AHP para obtenção dos pesos dos critérios e Promethee para classificação dos cursos em grupos. Fez-se também uma comparação da aplicação deste protocolo em dois cenários distintos (cenário 1, com o mesmo valor de peso para todos os critérios e o cenário 2, com valores de pesos atribuídos segundo uma das possibilidades encontradas na literatura), de modo a propor alternativas que contribuam para aprimorar as práticas educacionais. / Higher education in Brazil requires that educational institutions seeking to improve their educational practices, in order to increase the quality of their courses. In this work we developed a protocol for evaluating the use of Virtual Learning Environments in Higher Education Institutions. For treatment of data from diagnostic use of two methodologies are proposed multicriteria decision support; AHP to obtain the weights of the criteria for classification of PROMETHEE and courses in groups. There was also a comparison of the implementation of this protocol in two different scenarios (scenario 1, with the same weight for all criteria and scenario 2, with values of weights assigned according to the possibilities found in the literature), in order to propose alternatives that contribute to improve educational practices.

Le développement des technologies d’information et de communication et leur introduction dans le système d’enseignement supérieur en Russie et en France vise à contribuer à l’amélioration de la qualité de la formation universitaire. Les établissements supérieurs français et russes mènent des recherches dans le domaine de l’enseignement en ligne dans toutes les filières. Dans ce contexte, la formation des compétences socioculturelles des étudiants-linguistes dans un environnement francophone d’apprentissage Moodle conduit à la confrontation à des problématiques actuelles et importantes pour les sciences de l’éducation. L’objectif de notre recherche est de faire ressortir et expliquer la spécificité de la formation des compétences socioculturelles dans un environnement Moodle. Cet objectif nous a amené à préciser les composantes des compétences socioculturelles à partir de l’analyse des modèles de ces compétences représentées dans des ouvrages russes et francophones. La nécessité de développer toutes les composantes en même temps et utiliser pleinement le potentiel de l’environnement virtuel ont justifié l’élaboration de l’approche intégrative incluant les idées des chercheurs français dans ce domaine. Pour appliquer l’approche intégrative, nous avons procédé à l’analyse des caractéristiques de l’environnement Moodle en utilisant les paramètres psychodiagnostics élaborés par les pédagogues russes et en liant ces caractéristiques aux composantes des compétences socioculturelles. Après avoir construit le cadre théorique de la recherche, nous avons appliqué la méthodologie de l’expérience pédagogique pour argumenter l’efficacité de la formation des compétences socioculturelles dans un environnement francophone d’apprentissage Moodle. Pour cet objectif, un cours virtuel Portrait socioculturel de la France a été créé, mis en place et introduit dans le parcours de formation des étudiants-linguistes à l’Université d’Etat de Tomsk. Ces résultats obtenus sont importants pour la formation des étudiants surtout dans les conditions de l’éloignement géographique. Outre le cours virtuel dans Moodle, nous avons explicité des conseils pour les étudiants et des recommandations pour les enseignants-tuteurs concernant le travail dans un environnement francophone d’apprentissage. / The development of information and communication technologies and introduction in the system of Higher Education in Russia and in France contribute to the improvement of the quality of university education. Universities in France and Russia conduct researches in the field of online education in all disciplines. In this context, the formation of the sociocultural competency of students-linguists in a French-speaking learning environment Moodle becomes important problematic for education sciences. The objectif of our research is to highlight and explain the specificity of the formation of sociocultural competency in the virtual environment Moodle. This objective has led us to specify the components of the sociocultural competency by analyzing the models of this competency represented in Russian and French research. The necessity to develop all the components at the same time and make full use of the potential of the virtual environment led us to develop the integrative approach based on the ideas of the french researchers in this area. To apply the integrative approach, we did the analysis of the characteristics of the environment Moodle by using psychodiagnostics criteria developed by Russian scientists and by linking these characteristics to the components of the sociocultural competency. We constructed the theoretical framework of research and next we applied it to argue the effectiveness of formation of sociocultural competency in a French-speaking learning environment Moodle. For this aim, a virtual course Portrait socio-cultural of the France was created, developed and introduced in the process of the formation of the students-linguists at the Tomsk State University. In addition to the virtual course in Moodle, we have developed student tips and recommendations for tutors working in a French-speaking learning environment Moodle

A presente pesquisa, de feição quantitativa, constitui uma investigação do tipo experimental-documental que teve por objetivo estudar o impacto da utilização da metodologia blended learning, ou Ensino Híbrido, em uma turma de estudantes do segundo ano do Ensino Médio do Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo - IFSP, Campus Jacareí na disciplina de Física. Para tanto, foi desenvolvido um Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem (AVA), utilizando-se o software MOODLE, que disponibilizou para os estudantes da turma investigada diferentes recursos e atividades que poderiam ser acessados por meio de um computador ligado à Internet. Dentre esses recursos e atividades podemos citar: textos, vídeos, simulações, lições, exercícios resolvidos, demonstrações de experimentos, listas de exercícios com feedback imediato e fóruns. A intenção foi a de avaliar se a integração entre o ensino presencial e o on-line, tornando a ação educativa mais personalizada, seria mais efetiva para a aprendizagem dos estudantes do que as práticas tradicionais de ensino ancoradas na metodologia expositiva. Para avaliar o impacto educacional da metodologia utilizada, comparamos o desempenho dos estudantes por meio da média final do primeiro bimestre do ano letivo de 2018 com os resultados obtidos pela mesma turma quando foram submetidos à metodologia tradicional de ensino durante o primeiro bimestre do ano anterior. Foi analisada também a interação dos estudantes com o AVA do MOODLE para verificar se os estudantes que mais interagiram com os recursos disponíveis foram aqueles que obtiveram melhor desempenho. Os dados foram tratados estatisticamente pelos testes t-student e coeficiente de Pearson e apontam para a existência de evidências significativas de contribuição da utilização da metodologia do Ensino Híbrido, não só no domínio cognitivo como também no afetivo, levando os estudantes a uma maior motivação e autonomia. / The present research, of quantitative nature, is an experimental-documentary research whose objective was to study the impact of the use of the blended learning methodology in a group of students of the second year of High School of the Federal Institute of Education Science and Technology of São Paulo - IFSP, Campus Jacareí in the discipline of Physics. For that, a Virtual Learning Environment (AVA) was developed, using the MOODLE software, which made available to the students of the investigated class different resources and activities that could be accessed through a computer connected to the Internet. Among these resources and activities we can mention: texts, videos, simulations, lessons, solved exercises, demonstrations of experiments, lists of exercises with immediate feedback and forums. The intention was to evaluate if the integration between classroom and online education, making the educational action more personalized, would be more effective for students\' learning than the traditional teaching practices anchored in the expository methodology. In order to evaluate the educational impact of the methodology used, we compared the students\' performance by means of the final average of the first two months of the 2018 school year with the results obtained by the same group when they were submitted to the traditional teaching methodology during the first two months of the previous year. We also analyzed the students\' interaction with the MOODLE AVA to verify if the students who interacted the most with the available resources were the ones that obtained the best performance. The data were treated statistically by the t-student and Pearson coefficient tests and point to the existence of significant evidence of contribution of the Hybrid Teaching methodology, not only in the cognitive domain but also in the affective domain, leading students to a higher motivation and autonomy.

This thesis explores the role of modularity for achieving a better adaptation of learning technology to pedagogical requirements. In order to examine the interrelations that occur between pedagogy and computer science, a theoretical framework rooted in both fields is applied. During the twentieth century, the focus of pedagogical research and practice has gone from behaviourism, via cognitivism, to learning theory based on constructivism. Changes in learning objectives and an increasing cognitive complexity of learning tasks are likely to have contributed to this evolvement. This puts new requirements on the design and implementation of pedagogical instruction (instructional design) and its application to learning technology. Using instructional design together with technology requires the pedagogical process to be predetermined, which is partly contradicted by the nature of constructivism. Many constructivist approaches require social interaction and dynamic learning environments that can adapt to changes that are required by different pedagogical approaches. Those requirements have been met using modular approaches for content, i.e., learning objects, implemented in non-modular web-based virtual learning environments (VLE), like learning management systems (LMS). This thesis argues that modularity promotes adaptability and adaptivity, but that the current practice of using learning objects and LMSes is too restricted to fulfill the increasing needs for flexibility. The reasons are that the learning object concept is still too ill-defined to function as a component framework, and there are complex and unsolved issues regarding the representation of pedagogical instructions. This is especially complicated from a constructivist perspective where pedagogical instructions cannot always be assumed to be predetermined, which needs to be encountered for by technology. This thesis contributes to the research field by suggesting a modular approach that includes both digital learning content and VLEs. This was accomplished by suggesting a taxonomy and an abstract model for learning objects, which address both functional and technical properties. Furthermore, six action areas are suggested in order to enhance the technical quality of learning objects. Using the abstract model as a basis, the software architecture of learning objects was addressed in order to separate data, logics and presentation – including the separation of the representation of pedagogical process from the components that implement it. This facilitates the combination of modularity and representation of pedagogical instruction that utilizes machine-processable semantics, enabling the utilization of modularity at composition time as well as at run-time. This approach has resulted in a SOA-based architecture framework that has been used as blueprint for implementing two prototypes of modular VLEs, using different technology platforms. The objective was to verify the taxonomy, the abstract model, and the architecture framework. The experiments have shown that it is possible to incorporate learning content and the VLE into the same modular framework in order to provide the flexibility needed for learning technology to better adapt to changing pedagogical requirements. The experiments have also shown how pedagogical processes benefit from being represented using machine-processable semantics in being able to better utilize the flexibility offered by modularity in keeping the components of the VLE together by representing context and structure. This has been illustrated by adding semantic annotations that were used to dynamically connect pedagogical instruction to annotated learning objects, using machine-processable semantics. / QC 20100903

In 2003, since issued the decree number 4.901, the Brazilian Digital Television was established. Its main features are to provide interactivity and new technologies development, offering the population entertainment and education, promoting culture and social inclusion. Therefore, there is an immediate need for the creation of ways of making this new technology available for the whole population, despite economical status. And if this is to become true, it is extremely important that the Brazilians stop thinking on Digital TV only as an improvement of image and sound quality, but as an interactive tool for education and learning for all. Ignoring this new circumstances would be neglectful to the society, due to the loss of uncountable educational opportunities. A very small number of suggestions on Brazilian Digital TV learning activities models are being proposed recently. For that reason, this work presents a learning activity model for Brazilian Digital TV (A-TVDBR), which relies on an interactive ways of tutoring through Digital TV, aiming disabled students with locomotion difficulties. The model was specified and implemented for GINGA-NCL, using Nested Context Language declarative language / Em 2003, a partir do decreto nº 4.901, foi instituída a TV Digital brasileira, cujas características preponderantes são de proporcionar a interatividade e o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias oferecendo entretenimento à população, promovendo a educação, a cultura, e a inclusão social, diante desta nova realidade, precisam-se viabilizar meios de utilização desta tecnologia para diminuição das barreiras sociais principalmente no que tange a educação. Neste contexto, poucos modelos de atividades de aprendizagem para TV digital brasileira têm sido propostos na literatura, o presente trabalho apresenta um modelo de atividades de aprendizagem para TV Digital brasileira (A-TVDBR) que possibilita de forma ativa e principalmente interativa o aprendizado e a formação através da TV Digital. O modelo proposto foi especificado baseado em componentes de software e implementado para GINGA-NCL, utilizando-se da linguagem declarativa Nested Context Language. O modelo implementado foi usado numa aplicação de TV Digital que teve como público alvo, alunos portadores de deficiência física que possuem limitação motora da associação dos deficientes físicos do estado de Alagoas (ADEFAL)
