A study of the use of SMS cell phone technology to support teaching and learning of natural science with gr. 7 learners.

Walstra, Karen Ann 08 January 2013 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether learners from different primary schools would respond to cell phone SMS (short message service) questions related to their schoolwork after school hours. As young people use cell phone technology to socialise, it seemed appropriate to consider integrating this technology within the school-framework, as many schools do not allow the use of cell phones during school. Another aim was to find out whether socio-economic backgrounds or gender groups responded differently to the SMS interaction study. A concurrent triangulation design research method was applied. The study examined how often and what types of answers learners would submit via SMS after school hours. The principal conclusion was that the learners reacted positively to the SMS feedback response sent in reply to an SMS answer and then engaged to a greater degree with the further questions.

Distracted Driving: A Cross-Disciplinary Analysis Exploring The Effectiveness Of Public Service Announcements Regarding Texting And Driving That Employ A Filmed Narrative With Emotional Appeals

Unknown Date (has links)
Despite efforts to mitigate texting and driving in the United States, accidents as a result of distracted driving continue to increase, especially within the 16-24 age group. Considering the traits of the members of this age group, as well as the attributes of the various means that are utilized to mitigate such behavior, I hypothesize that the employment of filmed narratives in public service announcements is more effective than any other established approach. Testing the validity of this hypothesis, contributing to a lack of research, three methods of analysis were employed in this project: a textual analysis of a filmed narrative; an audience analysis of the comments accompanying the filmed narrative; and a video session followed by a self-administered questionnaire. The results of this study indicate that while the filmed narrative is more effective than the spoken narrative, more intensive analyses are necessary for further speculation. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.A.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2017. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

A interatividade qualitativa dos jogos digitais: estudo de caso sobre o Vivo em Ação / Quality interactivity of digital games Case Study on Vivo em Ação.

Blazek, Viktor Busch 07 October 2009 (has links)
Os jogos são manifestações naturais presentes desde os primórdios da cultura humana. Apesar de dispensarem suportes tecnológicos - a prontidão e a filosofia desencadeiam o processo para que o jogo aconteça entre os jogadores - é inegável que os avanços tecnológicos contribuíram para alavancar a difusão e a popularização dos jogos. Exemplo disso é a prensa de Gutemberg que tornou acessíveis baralhos cuja utilização era principalmente reservada à elite e à corte, às quais as cartas inclusive representava. Se a tecnologia se transformou, especialmente na transição do século XX para o XXI, os jogos acompanharam essa mudança. E a indústria, por sua vez, se apropriou do formato para produzir esses bens simbólicos em escala. O correlato dessa expansão é que os jogos passaram a ser utilizados para diversas funções além do entretenimento, ampliando as experiências do jogador. Este estudo de caso apresenta o jogo apropriado como ferramenta de uma ação estratégica de ampliação da base de usuários da empresa Vivo. Além disso, o modelo possibilitou a ressignificação do telefone celular para ampliar a familiaridade do usuário em relação a todas as possibilidades desse meio. Também mostra que o gestor é o profissional responsável pela mediação desse processo comunicativo existente entre empresa e o usuário. Também cabe ao gestor articular com habilidade e pertinência as variáveis que atuam em cada experiência de jogo, favorecendo os resultados do relacionamento empresa/ usuário, potencializando o binômio investimento/benefício, mas - acima de tudo - buscando uma interatividade que possa transformar o jogo em si e a própria realidade. / Games have been natural expressions of the human culture since its beginning. Although independent from technology - readiness and philosophy trigger the process so that a game can be played - it is undeniable that technological advances have helped leverage the diffusion and popularization of games. An example of this is Gutenberg press, which made available decks of cards used mainly by the elite and the court, who were even depicted in the cards. As the technology evolved, especially at the end of the 20th century and beginning of the 21st century, games followed this change. And industry, in its turn, took hold of this format for scale production of these symbolic goods. As a result of this expansion, games started to take several roles besides entertainment, thus enhancing the player\'s experiences. This case study presents the game used as a tool for a strategic action aimed at increasing the user base of cell phone company Vivo. In addition, this model enabled a new meaning for the cell phone to enhance the user\'s familiarity with all the possibilities of the medium. It also shows the manager as the professional responsible for mediating this type of communication between the company and the user. The manager is also expected to skillfully and appropriately articulate the variables present in each game experience, favoring the results of company/user relationship, boosting both investment and benefit, and - above all - pursuing an interactivity that can transform the game and even the reality.

This fact causes new forms of coexistence of the students with the equipment, making it somewhat indispensable and inseparable. At the same time, it creates difficulties for teachers and school staff, in order to manage this very intense relationship between students and phones. About that originates the central question of this research: How to offer subsidies to the state school system supervisor of São Paulo for mobile use as a teaching tool? The research had as main objective to prepare a proposal for continuing education in distance education addressed to education supervisors, to help them recognize the phone as an aid to teaching practice, considering their use of pedagogical possibilities. And specific objectives: to describe the function and the role of education supervisor and investigate pedagogical use proposals phone at school, appropriate supervisors and teachers. The research was developed in the form of documentary and bibliographical research, to subsidize the construction of a proposal for continuing education in distance education complement the teaching supervisor to recognize the educational possibilities of using mobile phone, considering the demands of contemporary educational reality and the need to encourage reformulation of the educational projects of the schools under his guidance / O supervisor de ensino da rede pública do estado de São Paulo, agente regulador do sistema, convive com novas demandas do ambiente escolar, impostas pela rápida e contínua transformação das mídias digitais, em particular, do telefone celular, que se torna cada vez mais sofisticado, em função das possibilidades de comunicação e informação e da acessibilidade econômica. Esse fato provoca novas formas de convivência dos estudantes com o equipamento, tornando-o de certo modo indispensável e inseparável. E, ao mesmo tempo, gera dificuldades para os professores e para a equipe escolar, no sentido de administrar essa relação tão intensa entre alunos e telefones. Desse fato decorre a questão central desta pesquisa: Como oferecer subsídios ao supervisor de ensino da rede estadual de São Paulo para que ele reconheça o celular como ferramenta pedagógica? A investigação teve por objetivo geral elaborar uma proposta de formação continuada em EaD, dirigida aos supervisores de ensino, no sentido de ajudá-los a reconhecer o celular como recurso auxiliar à prática educacional, considerando as suas possibilidades de uso pedagógico. E por objetivos específicos: descrever a função e o papel do supervisor de ensino e investigar propostas de uso pedagógico do celular na escola, adequadas aos supervisores e professores. A investigação foi desenvolvida na forma de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, para subsidiar a construção de uma proposta de formação continuada em EaD, no sentido de auxiliar o supervisor de ensino a reconhecer as possibilidades de uso pedagógico do telefone celular, considerando as demandas da realidade educacional contemporânea e a necessidade de estimular reformulações dos projetos pedagógicos das escolas sob sua orientação
