Previous issue date: 2012-06-18 / Advances related to information technology are visible and inherent to the management of
contemporary organizations, regardless of industrial action. Synchronized with this dynamic,
educational institutions are incorporating technological tools that assist its management and
academic support to teachers in teaching and interaction with the students. Given that
technological innovations are not always taken homogeneously and with the same degree of
coverage, remain current and relevant studies on how these technologies are being used in
academia. The objective of this research is to identify the usage profile of the functionality of
a virtual learning environment related to teaching (undergraduate or postgraduate),
demographic variables (age and gender) and institutional (time of admission and academic
center of origin.) The methodology applied to the study is descriptive and quantitative. The
research is characterized as census, covering all 2152 teachers of undergraduate and graduate
students of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, who accessed the virtual
classes of the Integrated Management of Academic Activities. The study findings revealed
that there is a statistically significant difference regarding the use of these tools to teachers
who work with undergraduate (49.3%) compared to graduate (6.6%). Regarding gender,
women (40.1%) use the system more than men (38.5%). It was also observed that the younger
teachers, aged 37 years, are the most active users (42.5%) of the Virtual Class with respect to
their elders. For teachers with up to three years time of admission to the UFRN, the pattern of
use is more advanced than those with more seniority, as well as the faculty of the Center for
Science and Technology are the least likely to use the tools available in relation to other
academic centers. It is hoped that with this study managers can direct actions to improve and
expand the use of this environment by teachers / Os avan?os trazidos pelas tecnologias de informa??o s?o vis?veis e inerentes ao
gerenciamento das organiza??es contempor?neas, independentemente do ramo de atua??o.
Acompanhando essa din?mica, as institui??es educacionais v?m incorporando ferramentas
tecnol?gicas que auxiliam a sua gest?o e d?o suporte ao docente nas atividades acad?micas e
na intera??o com os discentes. Tendo em vista que as inova??es tecnol?gicas nem sempre s?o
adotadas de forma homog?nea e com o mesmo grau de abrang?ncia, continuam atuais e
relevantes os estudos acerca da forma como essas tecnologias est?o sendo utilizadas no meio
universit?rio. O objetivo desta pesquisa ? identificar o perfil de uso das funcionalidades de um
ambiente virtual de aprendizagem relacionado com a atividade de ensino (gradua??o ou p?sgradua??o),
vari?veis demogr?ficas (idade e g?nero) e institucionais (tempo de admiss?o e
lota??o de centro acad?mico). A metodologia aplicada ao estudo ? do tipo descritiva, de
natureza quantitativa. A pesquisa se caracteriza como censit?ria, abrangendo todos os 2.152
docentes dos cursos de gradua??o e p?s-gradua??o da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do
Norte que acessaram as Turmas Virtuais do Sistema Integrado de Gest?o das Atividades
Acad?micas nos per?odos de 2010.2 e 2011.1. A an?lise evidenciou que h? diferen?a
estatisticamente significante quanto ? utiliza??o dessas ferramentas com os docentes que
atuam na gradua??o (49,3%) em rela??o aos da p?s-gradua??o (6,6%). Em rela??o ao g?nero,
as mulheres (40,1%) usam mais o sistema que os homens (38,5%). Observou-se tamb?m que
os docentes mais jovens, com idade at? 37 anos, s?o os usu?rios mais atuantes (42,5%) do
Turma Virtual em rela??o aos mais velhos. Para os docentes com at? tr?s anos de tempo de
admiss?o na UFRN, o padr?o de uso ? mais avan?ado do que os que t?m mais tempo de casa,
assim como os docentes do Centro de Ci?ncia e Tecnologia s?o os que menos se utilizam das
ferramentas dispon?veis, em rela??o aos demais centros acad?micos. Espera-se que, com esse
estudo, os gestores possam direcionar a??es para melhorar e ampliar a utiliza??o desse
ambiente pelos docentes
