In July 2020, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) published a text in its Coronavirus Responses series (COVID-29) on The potential of e-learning for adults: early lessons from the COVID-19 crisis, where one of the priorities identified was the training of teachers in pedagogical design of quality online courses for effective learning (OECD, 2020). The TALIS Report 2018 notes that although a large majority of teachers in schools willingly participate in professional development activities, many still feel ill-prepared to use new media in their teaching. They would therefore like to go beyond basic digital skills to receive more in-depth training on information and communication technologies (ICT) and their pedagogical integration for quality hybrid or online teaching (OECD, 2019).

The growth of e-learning, particularly distance learning via e-learning, is widely recognised as a significant factor influencing higher education in the 21st century. The rapid and ongoing uptake of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for teaching and learning, along with the recognition that increased student engagement can lead to more effective learning, is changing the way in which teaching and learning occurs in universities. This chapter suggests that the distance learner is frequently overlooked in the current climate when it comes to consideration of student needs and that current applications of ICT for distance learning raises questions about the quality of their learning experience. The chapter discusses the role of the student voice in understanding and addressing students’ needs in relation to the quality of their learning experience and suggests that greater attention needs to be paid to the distinct voice of the distance education student. The chapter provides some methodologies for collecting the student’s voice and gives consideration to how addressing the distance learners’ voice to enhance their learning experience might be most effectively accomplished.

La enseñanza online, vinculada a la incorporación de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación al ámbito educativo, han supuesto una revolución para los procesos formativos. En este sentido, los small private online courses (SPOC) se convierten en un recurso con el que poder diseñar acciones formativas para el profesorado. Este estudio, mediante un análisis pedagógico y bibliométrico, pretende conocer las características de los SPOC como recurso formativo y la evolución de su producción científica en las bases de datos Scopus y Web of Science. Los resultados reflejan un aumento significativo de la producción científica en los últimos años, destacando el interés creado en las instituciones universitarias y en las áreas de ciencias de la computación y ciencias sociales. Entre los motivos pedagógicos, encontramos la amplia oferta académica, la personalización del proceso formativo o la mejora de la competencia digital al formarse mediante SPOC. En definitiva, el crecimiento de los SPOC está relacionado con las ventajas que aportan sus características didácticas en un contexto educativo en el que las tecnologías juegan un papel clave, por lo que se convierte en un recurso de interés para la formación de los docentes. E-learning, linked to the incorporation of information and communication technologies in education, has been a revolution for training processes. In this sense, the small private online courses (SPOC) become a resource with which to design training actions for teachers. This study, through a pedagogical and bibliometric analysis, aims to know the characteristics of SPOCs as a training resource and the evolution of its scientific production in the Scopus and Web of Science databases. The results reflect a significant increase in scientific production in recent years, highlighting the interest created in university institutions and in the areas of computer science and social sciences. Among the pedagogical reasons, we find the wide academic offer, the personalization of the training process or the improvement of the digital competence when being formed through SPOC. In short, the growth of SPOCs is related to the advantages that their didactic characteristics bring in an educational context in which technologies play a key role, so it becomes a resource of interest for teacher training.

В статье рассматривается дидактический потенциал электронного учебного курса Lingua Latina как образовательного ресурса для организации самостоятельной работы по латинскому языку. Научная новизна исследования заключается в разработке электронного учебного курса по латинскому языку на платформе Moodle с целью интенсификации учебного процесса. При решении задач исследования были поведены анкетирование студентов 1 курса с целью выявления уровня мотивации к самостоятельной работе с использованиеминформационно-коммуникационных технологий и тестирование остаточных знаний по изучаемой дисциплине. В анкете студенты обосновали выбор смешанной модели обучения: они предпочитают получать теоретические знания в онлайн-режиме, а отрабатывать навыки при непосредственном контакте с преподавателем. Результаты исследования показали, у 75,7% студентов, выполняющих задания для самостоятельной (внеаудиторной) работы в электронной информационно-образовательной среде (ЭИОС) в сочетании с очными консультациями преподавателя, сформированны общепрофессиональные компетенции. The article examines the didactic potential of the Lingua Latina e-learning course as an educational resource for organizing independent work on the Latin language. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the development of an electronic training course in Latin on the Moodle platform in order to intensify the educational process. When solving the research tasks, a survey of 1st-year students was conducted in order to identify the level of motivation for independent work using information and communication technologies and testing of residual knowledge in the discipline under study. In the questionnaire, students justified the choice of a mixed learning model: they prefer to receive theoretical knowledge online, and to practice skills in direct contact with the teacher. The results of the study showed that 75.7% of students who perform tasks for independent (extracurricular) work in an electronic information and educational environment (EIOS) in combination with face-to-face consultations.

The chapter deals with the latest problems within the ICT-supported instruction and is structured into four parts. The introductory part emphasizes the importance of information and communication technologies implemented in the process of instruction and attracts attention to the didactic aspects of this process (i.e. whether teachers are able to apply suitable methods and forms of instruction, create and use appropriate didactic means which are offered by new technologies, and whether students reach a higher level of knowledge if they attend lessons managed by ICT or run traditionally by teachers). Part two deals with e-learning related phenomena as definitions and basic terminology which has not been clearly defined yet, evaluating pedagogical research in the field of e-learning. Part three focuses on results of analyses of research studies presented in three important e-learning conferences within the last decade in the Czech Republic: eLearning (Faculty of Informatics and Management, University of Hradec Kralove), ICTE (Faculty of Natural Sciences, University of Ostrava), and SCO (Sharable Content Objects, Masaryk University, Brno). Part four introduces a new approach to tailoring the online courses to individual student´s needs and results of research in this field. Not only the learning content but the methodology is considered here from the teacher´s point of view, and the expectations (hypotheses) are verified by the pedagogical experiment.

The article discusses the use of information and communication technologies in the training of specialists with in-depth knowledge of the history and culture of Islam at the Faculty of Asian and African Studies of St. Petersburg State University using the example of the online course “Islam: history, culture, practice”. It is used both by students to consolidate and deepen their knowledge in the framework of the educational process, and by a wide audience to get acquainted with the basics of Islam and understand the peculiarities of the existence of this religion. In addition, the article touches on the prospects of using massive open online courses in the Russian education system, since distance and e-learning are gradually becoming an addition to traditional forms of teaching. The active production of online courses allows to talk about their use in order to increase the competence of the student, modernize the educational process, popularizing scientific knowledge and increasing the target audience.

RESUMO: Este artigo apresenta e analisa os resultados da experiência do site Espaço do Produtor, desenvolvido e mantido pela Coordenadoria de Educação Aberta e a Distância (CEAD) da Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV). Para isso, associaram-se os resultados coletados por pesquisa realizada com os usuários em 2012 a uma revisão literária sobre o tema, particularmente sobre os cursos online oferecidos pelo site. Neles, são utilizados recursos das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC), a fim de estimular o autoaprendizado do usuário, dentre outras particularidades da Educação a Distância (EaD). Ao mesmo tempo, pretende-se confirmar a viabilidade técnica e institucional de se desenvolver um site para a realização de atividades de extensão de universidades públicas, fundamentando-as com dados e depoimentos da pesquisa. Entre os empecilhos para o desenvolvimento de atividades e projetos de extensão estão o alto custo e a falta de estímulo para participação de pesquisadores e de alunos. Conclui-se que, com o site, é possível alcançar um grande público, que muitas vezes, por condições geográficas ou falta de tempo, não poderia se dedicar a um curso presencial ou a distância. Além disso, o usuário consegue se aprofundar no assunto, que tem grande importância para a sua tomada de decisões presentes ou futuras na vida profissional e no dia a dia.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: cursos livres; educação a distância; espaço do produtor; extensão. ABSTRACT: This article presents and analyzes the results of the experience related to Espaço do produtor’s website (Producer space, in free translation), developed and maintained by Coordenadoria de Educação Aberta e a Distância (Cead), from Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV). For this purpose, we associated the results acquired by researches made with the website users in 2012, and a literature review about the theme, particularly about the online courses offered by the website. In those courses, the information and communication technologies (TIC) were used to stimulate users’ self-learning, among others e-learning particularities. At the same time, we intend to confirm the technical and institutional viability to develop a website to promote extension activities in education public institutions, grounding them with the help of data and research testimonials. Among the obstacles for the development of activities and extension projects, we found the high costs and the lack of incentive for researches and students’ participation. We conclude that it is possible to reach a large audience, that often, due to geographic condition or lack of time, could not dedicate to a classroom or distance course. Besides that, the user can go further in the matter, which has big importance for his decisions, in the present or future, for the professional or everyday life.KEYWORDS: free courses; distance learning; Espaço do produtor; extension.

Man is the only animal that learns for his whole life. Therefore, learning is one of the most important activities of human beings. Information and communication technologies, and specifically the Internet, brought us new ways to communicate, share information and learn. E-learning has become a modality whose capabilities, advantages and potentials is indisputable, but many of the difficulties inherent to learning activities, far from being sorted out by this new modality, have been increased. Loneliness and de-motivation of elearning users is probably the first cause of failure of online courses.

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are key to create sustainable higher education institutions (HEIs). Most researchers focused on the students’ perspective, especially during the online teaching caused by COVID-19; however, university teachers are often forgotten, having their opinion missing. This study’s objective was to determine the factors that contribute to the inclusion of ICTs. The research based on a comparative study through an online qualitative survey focused on the inclusion and use of ICTs in two HEIs and two different moments (pre-and post-lockdowns). There were differences regarding country and working experience (p < 0.001), being linked to the ICTs use, evaluation of obstacles, and the role given to ICTs (p < 0.05). The COVID-19 caused modifications of the teachers’ perspectives, including an improvement of the opinion of older teachers regarding the essentialness of ICTs in the teaching process (p < 0.001) and worsening their perception about their ICTs skill (p < 0.05). Additionally, an initial model focused only on the university teachers and their use of ICTs has been proposed. In conclusion, the less experienced university teachers used more ICTs, identified more greatly the problematic factors, and considered more important the ICTs, with the perception of all teachers modified by COVID-19.
