Technology and secondary English educationVratulis, Vetta 11 1900 (has links)
U.B.C. as well as many secondary schools in Vancouver have invested in the
potential of technology. Research reveals, however, that even when there is sufficient
access, far too many English teachers are not effectively using technology as a learning &/ or
teaching resource. Perhaps this is because they are not equipped with the necessary skills
to effectively use technology in the classroom. This three month study explores how three
English teachers at an urban secondary school in Vancouver are presently experiencing the
use of technology in their classrooms. Qualitative methods were used to generate, analyze
and report data. Data collection included formal and informal discussions, interviews,
extensive field notes and the observation of classes. This study discloses the factors which
have most significantly facilitated and inhibited the implementation of technology in these
teachers' teaching contexts. This research also provides an account of these teachers'
perspectives of how the B.Ed, program at U.B.C. can equip pre-service teachers for the
challenges and potential of integrating technology into secondary English classrooms. / Education, Faculty of / Language and Literacy Education (LLED), Department of / Graduate

Chytré telefony ve vzdělávání / Smartphones in educationHruška, Ondřej January 2019 (has links)
Modern technology has become an integral part of our life. Schools are often conservative, so involvement of technology in education is delayed. Most of the population own a smartphone, and while some people say that smartphones should be used in the lessons, others would prefer a complete ban on them. This work sums up strengths and weaknesses of smartphones in education based on literature and discusses some recommendations on their use. Smartphones usage in education was studied in an application which helps with basics of Russian alphabet. It was shown that majority of the users did not read license terms, preferred the same sex for application voice and tended to leave the application prematurely. A questionnaire survey on a school was used to grasp the whole topic. It was revealed that that touch devices would be welcome in education by students, and they are prepared to use their own smartphone for studying although rather at school than in their free time. Mobile phone is the preferred device for games playing and internet browsing but the most commonly used applications include social networks, communication programs and video players. It seems that the worst school results are achieved by students who use the smartphones most, but best results are not achieved by students who use the phone the least.

Manifesting Pedagogical Values in Contemporary Education : Transforming Abstract Concepts into Foundational Strategies Through an Iterative Design ProcessEskelinen, Silja Sofia January 2023 (has links)
The contradictory setting between the principles and practice in the contemporary school system affects everyday classrooms by compromising the learning environment based on core educational values. The challenges arising from the contradictions are also reflected in the digitalization of education. While physical materials have established an intuitive learning experience and are familiarized with the standard organization of learning, the development of digital materials has been driven by innovation instead of fundamental educational values. This thesis builds a theoretical foundation for promoting contemporary educational values based on pedagogical approaches and learning theories. By using interaction design methods, the values are transformed into concrete manifestations and evaluated through an iterative design process. The four strategies that emerged from the design process aim to transform the learning experience of digital materials from content-focused to learning-focused. The strategies’ purpose is to support students’ metacognitive development by adapting the principles of constructivist learning theory and student-driven education practices to the design of digital learning materials. In addition to the proposed strategies, this thesis aims to inspire future designers developing digital learning materials to consider the core values of education and the mentality towards learning they aspire to manifest through their design work.

[pt] A INTELIGÊNCIA ARTIFICIAL NOS DISCURSOS DAS EDTECHS NO BRASIL / [en] ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN THE DISCOURSES OF EDTECHSGISELLE DE MORAIS LIMA 08 April 2024 (has links)
[pt] Este trabalho procura olhar para as tecnologias educacionais – especialmente
aquelas com Inteligência Artificial (IA), a grande promessa da atualidade – a partir
de questionamentos críticos, evitando a ideia de neutralidade que comumente é
atribuída a elas, inclusive na literatura acadêmica. O objetivo geral é analisar
discursos sobre IA promovidos por empresas de tecnologia educacional (edtechs)
que oferecem tecnologias voltadas para o ensino-aprendizagem. Os específicos são:
1) examinar como a IA é concebida nos discursos das edtechs; 2) investigar os
papéis atribuídos às tecnologias nos processos de ensino e aprendizagem e 3)
caracterizar as concepções de educação veiculadas nesses discursos. A Análise de
Discurso Crítica foi o referencial teórico-metodológico que orientou as análises,
partindo das categorias dos pressupostos, escolhas lexicais e modalidade. O corpus
é composto de textos retirados dos sites e de dezessete postagens do Instagram de
três empresas selecionadas: a Letrus, a Educacross e a Jovens Gênios. Nos discursos
analisados, a IA é concebida como solução para diversos problemas educacionais e
posicionada ora como sujeito, ora como ferramenta para a aprendizagem. A IA
aparece com o papel de personalizar a educação, tornando a aprendizagem mais
significativa e a educação mais objetiva e eficiente, baseada em dados, democrática
e inovadora, além de capaz de suprir deficiências do trabalho docente. As empresas
difundem uma concepção de educação baseada em desempenho, organizada por
competências e habilidades, individualista, marginalizando a relação entre
educador e estudante. Os discursos expressam um ideal de educação que valoriza a
qualificação individual em detrimento das dimensões de socialização e
subjetivação, portanto distante de ideais de formação ampla e transformação social. / [en] This work seeks to address educational technologies through critical questions, avoiding the idea of neutrality that is commonly attributed to them, including in academic literature. The general objective is to analyze discourses on artificial intelligence (AI) promoted by educational technology companies (edtechs) that offer technologies aimed at teaching-learning. The specific objectives are: 1) to examine how AI is conceived in edtech discourses; 2) to investigate the roles assigned by edtechs to technologies in teaching and learning processes; and 3) to characterize the conceptions of education conveyed by these discourses. Critical Discourse Analysis was the theoretical-methodological framework that guided the analyses, starting from the categories of assumptions, lexical choices and modality. The corpus is composed of texts taken from websites and seventeen Instagram posts from three selected companies: Letrus, Educacross and Jovens Gênios. In the material analyzed, AI is conceived as a solution to various educational problems and positioned either as a subject or as a tool for learning. AI appears with the role of personalizing education, making learning more meaningful and education more objective and efficient, based on data, democratic and innovative, in addition to being able to overcome deficiencies in teaching. Companies disseminate a conception of education based on performance, organized by skills and abilities, markedly individualistic, marginalizing the relationship between educator and student. The discourses express an ideal of education that values individual qualification to the detriment of the dimensions of socialization and subjectivation, therefore far from ideals of broad training and social transformation.

O adolescente e a internet: laços e embaraços no mundo virtual / Adolescents and the Internet: connections and entanglements in the virtual world.Prioste, Cláudia Dias 22 March 2013 (has links)
Tendo em vista o amplo acesso às tecnologias de informação e comunicação (TICs) na sociedade contemporânea, com a promessa de um mundo virtual sem limites exercendo intenso poder de atração sobre os jovens, faz-se necessária a análise dos mecanismos ideológicos de manipulação psicológica postos em ação pela indústria cultural global no seio da subjetividade juvenil. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar os hábitos e os interesses dos adolescentes no ciberespaço, buscando apreender os possíveis efeitos em sua constituição subjetiva. A pesquisa empírica foi dividida em duas etapas desenvolvidas simultaneamente: a primeira constou de um percurso etnográfico na cibercultura com o intuito de desvendar os interesses econômicos subjacentes aos sites frequentados pelos jovens; a segunda etapa foi realizada em uma escola pública e em uma escola privada, localizadas em um mesmo bairro de São Paulo, onde foram aplicados 108 questionários aos estudantes do último ano do Ensino Fundamental, com idade entre 13 e 16 anos, de ambos os sexos. Na escola pública, foram realizadas observações participativas nas aulas de Informática Educativa. Em ambas efetuaram-se entrevistas com alunos considerados por seus colegas como os mais conectados à internet, bem como entrevistas complementares com professores, coordenadores e diretores. A interpretação e a análise dos dados fundamentaram-se na filosofia da educação, teoria crítica e psicanálise. Constatou-se que as atividades preferidas dos adolescentes consistiam em frequentar as redes sociais, jogar, assistir a vídeos, visitar home pages de celebridades e de pornografia. Concluiu-se que os jovens são atraídos pelo ciberespaço principalmente pela possibilidade de exercitar fantasias virtuais e se sentirem aceitos pelo grupo. Entre os meninos, prevaleciam as fantasias onipotentes e sádicas, com as seguintes temáticas: o terrorista/policial, o herói/sobrenatural, o hacker/expert. Entre as meninas, eram frequentes as fantasias românticas, cujos temas principais envolviam: a amada/escolhida, a mãe/bebê, a celebridade. Observou-se que as fantasias virtuais são produzidas pela indústria audiovisual, geralmente, a partir de componentes perverso-polimórficos reeditados, identificados pelo que T. W. Adorno denominou de psicanálise às avessas. Ao se fixarem nas fantasias virtuais por meio das próteses digitais imagéticas, a capacidade dos jovens de apreensão das experiências de suas vidas sofrem alterações significativas, dificultando a reflexão sobre estas. O investimento libidinal nos dispositivos televisuais, reduzido às satisfações escopofílicas e à excitação constante dos sentidos, não contribui para a assunção epistemofílica, resultando no empobrecimento do imaginário e do simbólico. No ciberespaço os adolescentes têm seus direitos de proteção violados, uma vez que seus psiquismos ainda se encontram em desenvolvimento. Os interesses no lucro parecem prevalecer em relação a qualquer dimensão ética envolvida. Nesse contexto, a internet, ao invés de ser um importante instrumento de ampliação do conhecimento e de participação social, da maneira como tem sido utilizada, tem contribuído para a alienação e fixação em satisfações narcísicas. Assim, conclui-se ser importante não somente a inclusão digital, no sentido de apropriação das TICs nos ambientes escolares, mas também uma efetiva formação crítica dos jovens em relação às mídias, fornecendo-lhes condições para que possam refletir sobre as ficções nas quais estão inseridos. / In light of the wide access to the information and communication technologies (ICT) in the contemporary society, which by promising limitless virtual world exert strong power of attraction on the young people, we consider it is necessary to analyze the ideological mechanisms of psychological manipulation in action by the global culture industry in young subjectivity. Thus, the present study aimed to identify the adolescent habits and interests in cyberspace in order to understand the possible consequences in their subjective constitution. This empirical research was divided into two phases performed simultaneously: the first one was composed by an ethnographic journey through cyberculture, aiming to find out the economic interests behind the sites most visited by the adolescents; the second phase was carried out in one public and one private school placed in the same neighborhood in São Paulo, where 108 questionnaires were applied to the 13 to 16-year-old boys and girls students in the last year of Secondary School. In the public school, participant observation was the approach used in the Educational Computing classes. Interviews were done in both schools with the students known as the most connected to the internet as well as additional interviews with the teachers, coordinators, and principals. Data interpretation and analysis were based on philosophy of education, critical theory and psychoanalysis. We have found that the adolescent favorite activities consisted of frequently going to social networks, playing games, watching videos, visiting celebrities home pages and pornography. We concluded that the adolescents are mainly attracted to cyberspace for their possibility to exercise virtual fantasies and feel accepted by their group. Among the boys prevailed omnipotent and sadistic fantasies with the following thematic features: the terrorist/policeman, the hero/supernatural, the hacker/expert. Among the girls, romantic fantasies were usual and involved mainly these themes: the beloved/chosen, the mother/baby, the celebrity. We noticed that the virtual fantasies are produced by the audiovisual industry generally out of perverse-polymorphic components reedited, identified by T.W. Adorno as psychoanalysis in reverse. When the adolescents get fixed to virtual fantasies by means of imagetic digital prostheses, their capacity of apprehending their own experiences in life suffers significant changes, hindering their reflection about them. The libidinal investment in televisual devices, reduced to scopophiliac gratification and constant excitement of the senses, doesnt contribute to the epistemophilic assumption - which results in imaginary and symbolic impoverishing. In cyberspace the adolescents have their protection rights violated since their psychism are still in process of development. Interests in making money seem to prevail over any ethical dimension involved. In this context, rather than being an important instrument to expand knowledge and social participation, the way the internet has being used it has contributed to the alienation and fixation in narcissistic gratification. Therefore, we have concluded that digital inclusion is important - meaning ICTs appropriation in the school environment - but also young peoples effective critical thinking formation with regard to the media, in order to offer them conditions to reflect about the fictions where they are inserted in.

Ensino a distância como estratégia de educação permanente em saúde: impacto da capacitação da equipe de Estratégia de Saúde da Família na organização dos serviços / Distance learning as strategy of permanent health education: impact of the Family Health Strategy staff training in the organization of servicesFratucci, Maristela Vilas Boas 06 April 2015 (has links)
A Educação à Distância é uma modalidade de ensino que permite eliminar a separação geográfica entre educador e educando para atender a um número ilimitado de alunos que estejam em busca de formação, capacitação ou atualização profissional. É também, um processo de auto-aprendizado que é incentivado pela utilização de estratégias didáticas bem elaboradas e adequadas às várias situações vigentes. Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo conhecer e explanar a vivência dos alunos do município de Amparo participantes da Especialização em Saúde da Família/UNASUS/UNIFESP, 2012, no processo de ensino-aprendizagem através do ensino a distância mediado por tecnologia e avaliar o impacto da educação permanente na organização dos serviços. Através de um modelo de pesquisa qualitativa, buscou-se estabelecer a percepção dos alunos com relação à metodologia, técnica, estratégias de aprendizagem e mudanças ocorridas nos serviços em que estão inseridos os profissionais capacitados. A metodologia, de natureza qualitativa foi utilizada através de grupos focais como processo de análise, nos encontros presenciais e webconferências, estratificados por eixos estruturantes objeto da pesquisa. O público alvo foram os profissionais formados como especialistas em Saúde da Família pelo curso de UNASUS/ UNIFESP do município de Amparo, 2012. As respostas foram classificadas segundo os eixos estruturantes buscando contextualizar o relato dos atores pesquisados. Após análise e avaliação destes discursos, foram estabelecidas relações e sínteses inerentes ao processo de ensino a distância e avaliação do impacto na organização e implementação dos serviços. Observou-se que, todas as narrativas referem a importância da educação permanente em saúde como eixo propulsor de mudanças nos serviços, e a Especialização em Saúde da Família-UNASUS/UNIFESP foi exímia em qualidade e excelência abrangendo um universo de mais de 4000 profissionais capacitados. Mas oportunamente destacaram, que nem sempre as transformações desejadas acontecem na mesma velocidade do proposto e assimilado pelo curso. Muitos fatores institucionais são barreiras naturais ao avanço de diretrizes e propostas. A práxis da docência traz elementos para que a realidade dos cursos e conteúdos seja apropriada de diferentes formas nos cenários do serviço. Entra neste quesito a habilidade dos profissionais nesta transformação entre o aprendido, apreendido e o executável. A conclusão destaca a importância do reconhecimento que a educação permanente em saúde deve ser sempre incentivada e oferecida aos profissionais, onde seus cenários de prática possam ser reorganizados e fortalecidos, buscando desenvolver propostas qualificadas social e tecnicamente, com aplicabilidade oportunizada por gestores e representantes municipais, estaduais e federais. / Distance Learning is a democratic teaching method that allows eliminating the geographic separation between the teacher and educated to attend an unlimited number of students who seeks graduation or professional refreshment. It is also a self-learning process encouraged by the use of well elaborated teaching resources according to the circumstances and contingencies. The objective of this study was to explore and to expand the experience of the UNASUS / UNIFESP Family Health Specialization Course students from Amparo municipality about the teaching-learning process on technology-mediated distance education and to measure its impact as a continuing education in the service organization. A qualitative research model was used in order to establish the student perception related to the methodology, technique, learning strategies and changes occurred in the services they are related to. In the qualitative nature of the methodology used, the focal groups were used for the analyses process, through face-to-face meetings and web conferences stratified by themes of the object studied. The target audience: professionals from Amparo municipality graduated on UNASUS / UNIFESP Family Health specialization course. The answers obtained were classified by axes to contextualize the researched actors report. After the analysis and evaluation of their speeches, the relations and a summary inherent to the Distance Learning process were established and the impact in the organization and implementation of the service were evaluated. Was noticed that all the narratives concern to the importance of the continuing education in health as a drive shaft of changes in the service. It was also noticed that the specialization was outstanding in quality and excellence. But it was highlighted that the seeking transformation does not always happen in the same velocity as the one proposed by the course. A lot of institutional difficulties are natural barriers to the advance of the guidelines and proposals. The academic praxis brings elements to make the reality of the courses and contents appropriated to different forms in the scenario service. Enters in this point the professional\'s ability in the transformation between the learned and the executable. The conclusion highlighted the importance of the recognition that the continuing education in health must be always incentivized and offered to groups of professionals, where the practical scenarios can be reorganized and strengthened. Seeking to development practical qualified socially and technically with applicability used by the managers and representatives of public power.

Previous issue date: 2015-02-24 / This research has as object of study teacher formation for digital inclusion via school
environment in the context of the Program One Laptop per Child (PROUCA). This object is
formed by the convergence of two thematic axs, the formation of teachers and the digital
inclusion track school environment. Whereas access to technologies is not a sufficient
condition for the reduction of social inequalities, the formation of teachers for the use of the
so-called educational laptops arises as a fundamental aspect of PROUCA. This observation
inspires the central question of this research: those formative process teachers are in schools
covered by PROUCA in Goiás? On the basis of the principles of historical materialismdialectic,
according to the proposed by Marx and Engels, the formative process of the teachers
for the digital inclusion that occurred in the process of implantation of PROUCA in Goiás is
taken as a special feature that is part of the whole that it reflects: relations material and
ideological of a particular historical time. The general objective was to explain the formative
processes teachers aiming to digital inclusion, track school environment, schools covered by
PROUCA, in Tennessee. The research is exploratory and was performed by means of
documentary analysis and field research involving the nine schools of the state of Goiás
covered by the Program. It occurred between the years of 2011 and 2014, involving 55
teachers. For the treatment of the issue of digital inclusion track school environment, we
highlight the contradiction to clarify the consequences of inclusion, as mere opposition to
digital exclusion and social. As regards the formative processes teachers, the principle of
alienation in was useful to clarify that the instrumental model adopted indicates much more
adaptation of individuals to the demands of the neoliberal economy than a stand-alone
formation, as it would be the foundation of action intentional teaching. The formative model
was as basic assumptions the fragmentation and the hierarchy, based on an instrumental
rationality. For analysis, the textual corpus emerging from exploratory research was organized
in three major areas: the fragmentation that characterizes the context of training, the fragility
of the concept of digital exclusion and alienation that mark the instrumental training that
occurs in the bulge of PROUCA. / Esta pesquisa tem como objeto de estudo a formação de professores para a inclusão digital via
ambiente escolar no contexto do Programa Um Computador por Aluno (PROUCA). Tal
objeto é constituído pela convergência de dois eixos temáticos, a formação de professores e a
inclusão digital via ambiente escolar. Considerando que o acesso às tecnologias não é
condição suficiente para a redução das desigualdades sociais, a formação dos professores para
o uso dos chamados laptops educacionais se coloca como aspecto fundamental do PROUCA.
Essa constatação inspira a questão central desta pesquisa: que processos formativos docentes
verificam-se nas escolas contempladas pelo PROUCA em Goiás? Com base nos princípios do
materialismo histórico-dialético, segundo o proposto por Marx e Engels, o processo formativo
dos professores para a inclusão digital que ocorreu no processo de implantação do PROUCA
em Goiás é tomado como uma particularidade que se constitui em parte da totalidade que aí se
reflete: as relações materiais e ideológicas de um determinado tempo histórico. O objetivo
geral foi explicar os processos formativos docentes visando à inclusão digital, via ambiente
escolar, nas escolas contempladas pelo PROUCA, em Goiás. A pesquisa tem caráter
exploratório e foi realizada por meio de análise documental e pesquisa de campo que
envolveu as nove escolas do estado de Goiás contempladas pelo Programa. Ela ocorreu entre
os anos de 2011 e 2014, envolvendo 55 docentes. Para o tratamento da questão da inclusão
digital via ambiente escolar, destacamos a contradição para explicitar as consequências da
adoção da inclusão, como mera oposição à exclusão digital e social. No que diz respeito aos
processos formativos docentes, o princípio da alienação nos foi útil para esclarecer que o
modelo instrumental adotado indica muito mais a adaptação dos indivíduos às demandas da
economia neoliberal do que uma formação autônoma, como seria o fundamento da ação
intencional docente. O modelo formativo teve como pressupostos básicos a fragmentação e a
hierarquização, baseando-se em uma racionalidade instrumental. Para análise, o corpus
textual emergente da pesquisa exploratória foi organizado em três grandes eixos: a
fragmentação que caracteriza o contexto da formação, a fragilidade do conceito de exclusão
digital e a alienação que marca a formação instrumental que ocorre no bojo do PROUCA.
