Desafios dos dispositivos móveis e recursos digitais : o projeto TeK.escolaglobal

Este artigo procura contribuir para a compreensão das implicações, dificuldades e benefícios da integração e utilização de equipamentos móveis e de recursos digitais no ensino-aprendizagem. Após uma breve contextualização sobre o mobile learning e os projetos-piloto desenvolvidos em Portugal, apresenta-se o projeto Tek.escolaglobal da Escolaglobal®, um estabelecimento de ensino privado com cerca de 600 alunos, no concelho de Santa Maria da Feira. Descreve-se, primeiro, o processo de incorporação de tablets e notebooks em todos os níveis escolares, mais concretamente, em todas as turmas do pré- escolar ao 10.º ano, e analisa-se, depois, a utilização de videoaulas, produzidas pelos docentes, numa lógica de flipped classroom. Os indicadores obtidos permitem fazer um balanço positivo do projeto, embora seja necessário criar estratégias que melhorem o envolvimento do aluno e do professor com os recursos móveis e digitais.

The impact of an online mathematics education project (MATACTIVA) on higher education students

The Online Mathematics Education Project (MatActiva) is an exciting new initiative which aims to support and enhance mathematics education. The project is led by the Institute of Accounting and Administration of Porto (ISCAP), part of the Polytechnic Institute of Porto (IPP). It provides innovative resources and carefully constructed materials around themes such as Elementary Mathematics, Calculus, Algebra, Statistics and Financial Mathematics to help support and inspire students and teachers of mathematics. The goal is to increase mathematical understanding, confidence and enjoyment, enrich the mathematical experience of each person, and promote creative and imaginative approaches to mathematics. Furthermore the project can be used to deliver engaging and effective mathematics instruction through the flipped classroom model. This paper also presents the findings of a large survey, whose propose was to study the student’s reaction to the project.

Teaching mathematics using Massive Open Online Courses

Distance learning - where students take courses (attend classes, get activities and other sort of learning materials) while being physically separated from their instructors, for larger part of the course duration - is far from being a “new event”. Since the middle of the nineteenth century, this has been done through Radio, Mail and TV, taking advantage of the full educational potential that these media resources had to offer at the time. However, in recent times we have, at our complete disposal, the “magic wonder” of communication and globalization - the Internet. Taking advantage of a whole new set of educational opportunities, with a more or less unselfish “look” to economic interests, focusing its concern on a larger and collective “welfare”, contributing to the development of a more “equitable” world, with regard to educational opportunities, the Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) were born and have become an important feature of the higher education in recent years. Many people have been talking about MOOCs as a potential educational revolution, which has arrived from North America, still growing and spreading, referring to its benefits and/or disadvantages. The Polytechnic Institute of Porto, also known as IPP, is a Higher Education Portuguese institution providing undergraduate and graduate studies, which has a solid history of online education and innovation through the use of technology, and it has been particularly interested and focused on MOOC developments, based on an open educational policy in order to try to implement some differentiated learning strategies to its actual students and as a way to attract future ones. Therefore, in July 2014, IPP launched the first Math MOOC on its own platform. This paper describes the requirements, the resulting design and implementation of a mathematics MOOC, which was essentially addressed to three target populations: - pre-college students or individuals wishing to update their Math skills or that need to prepare for the National Exam of Mathematics; - Higher Education students who have not attended in High School, this subject, and who feel the need to acquire basic knowledge about some of the topics covered; - High School Teachers who may use these resources with their students allowing them to develop teaching methodologies like "Flipped Classroom” (available at http://www.opened.ipp.pt/). The MOOC was developed in partnership with several professors from several schools from IPP, gathering different math competences and backgrounds to create and put to work different activities such video lectures and quizzes. We will also try to briefly discuss the advertising strategy being developed to promote this MOOC, since it is not offered through a main MOOC portal, such as Coursera or Udacity.

Recursos didácticos y estrategias TIC en el ámbito de la docencia del Derecho

[EN]In this paper we analyze the use of tablets in the classroom and the new key technologies based on mobile learning; describing their potential in the academic activities. We start always to identify and describe the key trends in educational technology in the field of teaching and learning and as always start from the last NMC Horizon Report 2014. So we will see how our university experience in the field of law, we used the methodological synergy and integration of the flipped classroom, apps design and even the gamification as new teaching tools of the digital ecosystem.

Experiencia de clase inversa

El uso de herramientas multimedia ofrece una serie de oportunidades de mejora del proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. El recurso de clase inversa se ha mostrado como una herramienta útil en el proceso de aprendizaje, que permite mejorar los resultados alcanzados en una clase tradicional. Permite además una interacción más personalizada entre el docente y el estudiante y estimula el trabajo autónomo de los alumnos. Experiencia previa de parte del grupo en este tipo de enseñanza, si bien en otra materia, mostraba cómo esta metodología permite profundizar más en los contenidos a desarrollar, puesto que los alumnos llegan a clase con un bagaje previo. Así decidimos realizar una experiencia piloto de clase inversa en un seminario de farmacología. Antes de asistir al seminario, los estudiantes debían visualizar un vídeo que elaboramos previamente y rellenar un cuestionario de autoevaluación para detectar posibles lagunas. Durante el seminario se resolvieron las dudas sobre la materia y se realizó el cuestionario de evaluación. Los alumnos manifestaron que el vídeo les había resultado útil para la comprensión de la materia y se mostraron satisfechos con la actividad. Consideramos que esta metodología es exportable a los temas de teoría y abre una nueva vía de inclusión de contenidos.

Docencia semipresencial en el Máster en Ingeniería Informática

En este artículo se describe el trabajo realizado por la red de investigación en docencia universitaria denominada “Docencia semipresencial en el Máster en Ingeniería Informática” y que ha pretendido trabajar en las diferentes asignaturas del Máster en Ingeniería Informática de la Universidad de Alicante con el fin de dotarlas de un carácter semipresencial de una forma coordinada e integrada. Se ha creado un grupo de trabajo dentro de la comisión académica del máster y se ha impulsado una colaboración estrecha entre los responsables de todas las asignaturas del Máster en Ingeniería Informática a la hora de usar todos los mecanismos necesarios para dotar a las respectivas asignaturas del carácter semipresencial. Ha sido muy importante el apoyo que se ha tenido del ICE en este sentido, por ejemplo mediante la solicitud y realización de un curso específico sobre bLearning.

Effects of two teaching interventions on nursing students’ acquisition of competence in ECG interpretation

Purpose: Nurse ability to recognise patient arrhythmias could contribute to preventing in-hospital cardiac arrest. Research suggests that nurses and nursing students lack competence in electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two training strategies on nursing students’ acquisition of competence in ECG interpretation. Materials and methods: A controlled randomised trial with 98 nursing students. Divided in groups of 12–16, participants were randomly allocated to one of the following 3-h teaching intervention groups: 1) traditional instructor-led (TILG), and 2) flipped classroom (FCG). Participants’ competence in ECG interpretation was measured in terms of knowledge (%), skills (%) and self-efficacy (%) using a specifically designed and previously validated toolkit at pre-test and post-test. Two-way MANOVA explored the interaction effect between ‘teaching group’ and ‘time of assessment’ and its impact on participants’ competence. Within-group differences at pre-test and post-test were explored by carrying out paired t-tests. Between-group differences at pre- and post-test were examined by performing independent t-test analysis. Results: There was a statistically significant interaction effect between ‘teaching group’ and ‘time of assessment’ on participants’ competence in ECG interpretation (F(3,190) = 86.541, p = 0.001; Wilks’ Λ = 0.423). At pre-test, differences in knowledge (TILG = 35.12 ± 12.07; FCG = 35.66 ± 10.66), skills (TILG = 14.05 ± 10.37; FCG = 14.82 ± 14.14), self-efficacy (TILG = 46.22 ± 23.78; FCG = 40.01 ± 21.77) and all other variables were non-significant (p > 0.05). At post-test, knowledge (TILG = 55.12 ± 14.16; FCG = 94.2 ± 7.31), skills (TILG = 36.90 ± 16.45; FCG = 86.43 ± 14.32) and self-efficacy (TILG = 70.78 ± 14.55; FCG = 79.98 ± 10.35) had significantly improved, regardless of the training received (p < 0.05). Nonetheless, participants in the FCG scored significantly higher than participants in the TILG in knowledge, skills and self-efficacy (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Flipping the classroom for teaching ECG interpretation to nursing students may be more effective than using a traditional instructor-led approach in terms of immediate acquisition of competence in terms of knowledge, skills and self-efficacy. Further research on the effects of both teaching strategies on the retention of the competence will be undertaken.

Aulas inversas y Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC): Impulso a la iniciativa del estudiante, modelos de aprendizaje práctico presencial y trabajo colaborativo

El proyecto se desarrolla desde un planteamiento metodológico que se basa en las aulas inversas o "FLIPPED CLASSROOM", Aprender haciendo, aprendizaje significativo y aprendizaje colaborativo. Para ello se realiza el análisis de estilos de aprendizaje, se realizan sesiones formativas sobre el uso de la Pizarra Digital Interactiva como recurso tecnológico. La propuesta de enseñanza-aprendizaje, se desarrolla a través de la virtualización en el Campus Virtual de la asignatura. Las clases se organizan para el trabajo colaborativo, aplicando dinámicas de grupo que permiten facilitar los procesos de conocimiento entre los alumnos, para pasar a la formación de grupos heterogéneos, a través de la técnica del sociograma. Se Proponen tareas que se realizan en el aula, en trabajo colaborativo. Los alumnos trabajan la información con anterioridad, en casa, revisando la documentación del campus. El aprendizaje colaborativo a través del Campus supone desarrollar competencias en TIC y permite la construcción de aprendizajes significativos.
