Ampliando as ações educativas dos museus por meio da formação de comunidades virtuais de aprendizagem

Este artigo tem como objetivo mostrar que é possível incentivar a aprendizagem informal em museus através da construção de comunidades virtuais, com base em repositórios de objetos de aprendizagem, ferramentas comunicacionais e produção de OAs por parte dos visitantes. O enfoque é incentivar a aprendizagem no sentido de motivar a participação/envolvimento do visitante nas atividades da comunidade virtual. Nesta perspectiva, partimos do pressuposto de que a informação, a comunicação, a interação e a cooperação são essenciais para o processo de aprender no contexto informal dos museus. Acreditamos que a interação e a cooperação são partes integrantes do processo de aprendizagem proporcionado por comunidades virtuais e que o principal recurso de aprendizagem oferecido nessas comunidades são os objetos de aprendizagem. Diante do exposto, construímos a Comunidade Virtual do Muzar e realizamos uma experimentação do ambiente de modo a verificar o quanto os visitantes são incentivados a produzir novos conhecimentos.

Profesores frente a estudiantes: las dos orillas de la educación bimodal

Desde hace 6 años el grupo de investigación E-Virtual de laUniversidad de Medellín viene trabajando en la implementaciónde asignaturas bimodales en la Institución. En el 2009, con elapoyo de MEN, se implementó la modalidad a distancia conmetodología virtual en el modelo pedagógico de la Universidad.Estas nuevas experiencias llevaron al Grupo a cuestionarsesobre las características pedagógicas y didácticas a teneren cuenta cuando se combinan la educación presencial y lavirtual. Para ello se indagó con profesores y estudiantes sobresu percepción al respecto. Para la recolección de informaciónse combinaron técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas, que hanarrojado interesantes resultados, entre ellos proceso deinducción, interacciones comunicativas, Objetos Virtuales deAprendizaje y uso de la plataforma virtual.En este artículo se darán a conocer algunos resultados de lainvestigación, cuáles han sido los aspectos positivos de estaexperiencia y cuáles son las áreas a mejorar.

Objetos de aprendizaje para el desarrollo del tema: inecuaciones de primer grado e intervalos de solución de noveno de educación general básica.

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo dar a conocer Objetos de Aprendizaje, como un recurso tecnológico, que sirva de soporte a la educación y que contribuya en la enseñanza de las Inecuaciones de primer grado. Para realizar este proyecto se han planteado cinco capítulos de desarrollo: En el capítulo uno se realiza una investigación bibliográfica donde se describe la Educación, orientándola hacia el constructivismo, que centra al estudiante como constructor de su conocimiento y la importancia de usar material didáctico apto para desarrollar sus habilidades. En el capítulo dos se desarrolla el tema de Inecuaciones de primer grado, dividiéndolo en cuatro subtemas: Inecuaciones de primer grado con una y dos incógnitas, intervalos de solución y sistemas de inecuaciones. En el capítulo tres se presenta un análisis a los recursos educativos de libre acceso en diferentes sitios web, dónde se evidencia el desarrollo de plataformas que buscan consolidar los aprendizajes. En el capítulo cuatro se desarrolla el diseño de los cuatro Objetos de Aprendizaje; a partir de su metodología para la estructuración; además se usará guías para su organización. Y finalmente en el capítulo cinco se aprecia el interés que producen los Objetos de Aprendizaje, en los estudiantes de Noveno de EGB. Permitiendo observar que este recurso fortalece el aprendizaje de forma divertida e interactiva; dando apertura al uso de instrumentos multimedia como material de autoformación.

Learning-induced plasticity in human audition: Objects, time, and space.

The human auditory system is comprised of specialized but interacting anatomic and functional pathways encoding object, spatial, and temporal information. We review how learning-induced plasticity manifests along these pathways and to what extent there are common mechanisms subserving such plasticity. A first series of experiments establishes a temporal hierarchy along which sounds of objects are discriminated along basic to fine-grained categorical boundaries and learned representations. A widespread network of temporal and (pre)frontal brain regions contributes to object discrimination via recursive processing. Learning-induced plasticity typically manifested as repetition suppression within a common set of brain regions. A second series considered how the temporal sequence of sound sources is represented. We show that lateralized responsiveness during the initial encoding phase of pairs of auditory spatial stimuli is critical for their accurate ordered perception. Finally, we consider how spatial representations are formed and modified through training-induced learning. A population-based model of spatial processing is supported wherein temporal and parietal structures interact in the encoding of relative and absolute spatial information over the initial ∼300ms post-stimulus onset. Collectively, these data provide insights into the functional organization of human audition and open directions for new developments in targeted diagnostic and neurorehabilitation strategies.

Building an open social learning community around a Dspace repository on Statistics

LORs, addressing content management and preservation, have the positive collaterals of institutional positioning and dissemination, but their main benefit is the empowerment of interest-centred learning communities, as we recognise that learning is much more than content, which becomes infrastructure: the LOR provides the learner interaction with the LOs, but also with other learners and teachers.

Visuotactile learning and body representation: an ERP study with rubber hands and rubber objects

We studied how the integration of seen and felt tactile stimulation modulates somatosensory processing, and investigated whether visuotactile integration depends on temporal contiguity of stimulation, and its coherence with a pre-existing body representation. During training, participants viewed a rubber hand or a rubber object that was tapped either synchronously with stimulation of their own hand, or in an uncorrelated fashion. In a subsequent test phase, somatosensory event-related potentials (ERPs) were recorded to tactile stimulation of the left or right hand, to assess how tactile processing was affected by previous visuotactile experience during training. An enhanced somatosensory N140 component was elicited after synchronous, compared with uncorrelated, visuotactile training, irrespective of whether participants viewed a rubber hand or rubber object. This early effect of visuotactile integration on somatosensory processing is interpreted as a candidate electrophysiological correlate of the rubber hand illusion that is determined by temporal contiguity, but not by pre-existing body representations. ERPmodulations were observed beyond 200msec post-stimulus, suggesting an attentional bias induced by visuotactile training. These late modulations were absent when the stimulation of a rubber hand and the participant’s own hand was uncorrelated during training, suggesting that pre-existing body representations may affect later stages of tactile processing.

Interactive sensory objects for and by people with learning disabilities

This project engages people with learning disabilities as co-researchers and co-designers in the development of multisensory interactive artworks, with the aim of making museums or heritage sites more interesting, meaningful, and fun. This article describes our explorations, within this context, of a range of technologies including squishy circuits, littleBits, and easy-build websites, and presents examples of objects created by the co-researchers such as “sensory boxes” and interactive buckets, baskets, and boots. Public engagement is an important part of the project and includes an annual public event and seminar day, a blog rich with photos and videos of the workshops, and an activities book to give people ideas for creating their own sensory explorations of museums and heritage sites.

Interactive sensory objects for and by people with learning disabilities

This project engages people with learning disabilities to participate as co-researchers and explore museum interpretation through multisensory workshops using microcontrollers and sensors to enable alternative interactive visitor experiences in museums and heritage sites. This article describes how the project brings together artists, engineers, and experts in multimedia advocacy, as well as people with learning disabilities in the co-design of interactive multisensory objects that replicate or respond to objects of cultural significance in our national collections. Through a series of staged multi-sensory art and electronics workshops, people with learning disabilities explore how the different senses could be utilised to augment existing artefacts or create entirely new ones. The co-researchers employ multimedia advocacy tools to reflect on and to communicate their experiences and findings.
