Training Opportunities

A inserção da educação a distância nos processos educativos formais apontou possibilidades de formação em nível superior para aqueles que estão distantes dos centros de formação e, para além disso, desvelou objetos de investigação. Um exemplo disso são os materiais didáticos, tão necessários para a efetivação da aprendizagem na modalidade a distância. A gama de materiais é grande e, por isso, é interessante conhecer o modo como eles vêm sendo desenvolvidos e utilizados por aquelas instituições que ofertam cursos nessa modalidade. É sabido que há necessidades distintas entre os alunos da educação a distância e os de cursos presenciais, que precisam estar contempladas nos materiais didáticos. Mas de fato estão? Considerando a organização do espaço de estudo como importante no processo pedagógico, como os espaços dos materiais didáticos vêm sendo organizados? Que elementos têm sido utilizados para o desenvolvimento de layouts para materiais didáticos utilizados em cursos a distância? Tais questões são tema deste escrito, que busca, a partir de um estudo de caso, observar materiais didáticos produzidos para cursos brasileiros a distância. Um olhar transversal sobre tais materiais aponta semelhanças com os produtos elaborados para a educação presencial, tão conhecida por muitos.Palavras-chave: Educação a distância; Materiais didáticos; Layout.?Didactic Materials for Distance Education: Observing LayoutsAbstract The inclusion of distance education in formal educational processes pointed training opportunities in higher education for those who are distant from training centers and, in addition, unveiled research objects. An example of this are the didactic materials, as necessary for effective learning in the distance. The range of materials is large and therefore it is interesting to know how these are being developed and used by those institutions that offer courses in this modality. It is known that there are different needs among students of distance education and presence courses that need to be addressed in didactic materials. But actually are? Considering the organization of study space as important in the educational process, as the spaces of didactic materials have been organized? What elements have been used to development layouts for the materials used in distance education courses? This questions are theme of this this written that will, with a case study, observe didactic materials produced to Brazilian distance courses.

O presente trabalho traz os resultados de uma pesquisa que procurou identificar de quais abordagens e teorias de aprendizagem provêm os princípios didático-pedagógicos que os Projetos Pedagógicos de Curso (PPCs) dos cursos de Pedagogia a distância oferecidos por universidades federais da Região Nordeste propõem para o planejamento e desenvolvimento de suas tecnologias educacionais (ambientes, materiais e atividades). Após a revisão de literatura sobre abordagens e teorias de aprendizagem, seguida das análises documental e de conteúdo dos PPCs, identificamos que preponderam princípios escolanovistas, construtivistas e socioconstrutivistas. Contudo: a) a forma de operacionalização de tais princípios no planejamento e desenvolvimento dos ambientes, materiais e atividades é pouco objetiva; e b) os processos de avaliação da aprendizagem (e instrumentos utilizados) não são descritos ou o são de forma imprecisa. Tais achados sugerem que os PPCs, documentação balizadora dos cursos, não são utilizados como referência para o planejamento e o desenvolvimento das tecnologias educacionais empregadas nos cursos investigados. Palavras-chave: Educação a distância, Pedagogia, Teorias de aprendizagem, Tecnologias educacionais, Projeto pedagógico de curso. Approaches and Theories of Learning Proposed by the Projects of Pedagogy Distance Education Course for the Development of Educational TechnologiesAbstractThis paper presents the results of a study that aimed to identify from which learning approaches and theories come the didactic and pedagogical principles that the Courses Pedagogical Project o (PPCs) of Pedagogy distance courses offered by federal universities in the Northeast region propose to design and develop their educational technologies (environments, materials and activities). After a literature review of approaches and learning theories, followed by the documentary and content analysis of PPCs, we identified that the prevail principles come from New School, Constructivist and Socioconstrutivism. However: a) the documents are not objectives on how to operationalize these principles in designing and developing environments, materials and activities, and; b) the learning evaluation processes (and instruments) are not described or are inaccurate. These findings suggest that the PPCs, the basic documentation of the courses, are not used as references for designing and developing the educational technologies used in the investigated courses.Keywords: Distance education, Pedagogy, Learning theories, Educational technologies, Course projects.

This study aims to examine whether the attitudes towards distance education have a mediating role in the effect of academicians’ digital literacy levels on their satisfaction with distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were collected from 341 academicians who teach distance education courses at Inonu University. The academicians’ satisfaction with distance education which is the dependent variable of the study, consisted of two factors. These factors are satisfaction with the teaching of the course and satisfaction with the infrastructure. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the attitude towards distance education has a complete mediation role in the effect of digital literacy level on satisfaction with the teaching of the course in distance education, and that the attitude towards distance education has a partial mediation role in the effect of digital literacy level on satisfaction with the infrastructure.

The software package Macromedia Dreamweaver™ and learning management system WebCT™ are becoming de facto standards used to develop university distance education courses. NC State Univ. adopted these tools as part of its extensive support program for creating new distance courses, transforming existing classroom presentations into distance courses or upgrading existing distance courses. While production tools are becoming standardized, a “standard” course framework does not exist because most faculty believe that “no other course is like mine”. However, initial course placement online and course maintenance thereafter would be facilitated if a standardized course framework could be adopted and widely implemented. We developed such a framework, readily adaptable to many courses, by using the Libraries feature in Dreamweaver™ to create a model for easy navigation and standard course formatting for distance courses. Library items can be easily changed for use in different courses, and the entire framework can then be uploaded into WebCT™ for delivery to students. The model is used for several graduate level horticulture courses at NC State Univ.. Using this framework will allow any faculty member to easily fit his or her course into a replicable framework.

The subject of my study is the methodological question of one of the topics of operation research as an application field of mathematics. The mathematics and operation research team of our institute aims to provide up to date knowledge to our students of both regular and distance education courses. Each topic has been allotted to a different teacher, thus my responsibilities include Networks and their economic application, and my ambition is to achieve increasingly good results teaching this subject. The distance education course of our college provides the opportunity to try a wide range of methodological methods.
