Education In Brazil

 A educação superior a distância no Brasil tinha, em 2004, cerca de 60 mil alunos matriculados; cresceu rapidamente e atingiu em 2016 a marca de 1,5 milhão de matrículas, oferecendo importante colaboração para o desenvolvimento do país. Nesse contexto, mais do que nunca, é necessário analisar como se processou esse crescimento e prospectar o futuro, com vista a seu aprimoramento. Foi pesquisado o perfil da oferta atual dos cursos de EaD e comparado com os presenciais. Em 2016 eram 206 Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) oferecendo EaD, com desempenho médio, medido pelo Enade, equivalente ao dos cursos presenciais. Desse total, apenas cinco IES detinham 58% das matrículas, em sua maioria com cursos com conceito abaixo do patamar de 1,5 nos exames de 2015 e 2016. Isso significa que, na prática, a maioria dos alunos de EaD está frequentando cursos mal avaliados segundo o critério do Enade. Um fato contraditório e alarmente é que essas mesmas IES têm, de maneira geral, resultados do Enade para seus cursos presenciais superiores àqueles obtidos em seus cursos em EaD, indicando que não tratam as duas modalidades com o mesmo critério de responsabilidade. Finalizamos este artigo com a análise do conceito provisório do curso (CPC) e considerando a necessidade de implantar algumas medidas visando ao aprimoramento da oferta na área de Educação a Distância.Palavras-chave: Qualidade na educação, Educação no Brasil, Educação a distância, Educação presencial, Enade, CPC. Quality Higher Distance Learning Education: where are we and where are we moving toward to? Abstract Distance higher education in Brazil used to have, in 2004, about 60 thousand students enrolled; it grew rapidly and reached the 1.5 million enrollment mark in 2016, providing an important contribution to the development of the country. In this context, more than ever, it is necessary to analyze how this growth was processed and to look at the future, for its improvement. The profile of the current offer of distance education courses was researched and compared with the traditional ones. In 2016 there were 206 Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) offering Distance Learning, with average performance, measured by Enade, equivalent to that of face-to-face courses. Out of this total, only five HEIs held 58% of enrollments, mostly with courses with a concept below 1.5 in the 2015 and 2016 exams. This means that, in practical terms, most DL students are attending poor courses evaluated according to Enade and its criteria. A contradictory and widespread fact is that these same HEIs generally have results from Enade for their on-site courses higher than those obtained in their courses in DL, indicating that they do not treat the two modalities with the same criterion of responsibility. We conclude this article with the analysis of the provisional concept of the course (CPC) and considering the need to implement some measures aimed at improving the offer in the area of Distance Education.Keywords: Quality in education, Education in Brazil, Distance learning, Traditional learning, Enade, CPC

Технологии меняют образ жизни и деятельность человека. Глобальная сеть Интернет облегчает быстрый доступ к полезной информации. Социальная, культурная и образовательная конкурентоспособность находятся под влиянием образовательных технологий, которые положительно влияют на стиль, продолжительность и метод обучения в высших учебных заведениях. Дистанционное образование возможно применять и как полноценную самодостаточную форму, и как дополнение к классическому обучению в аудиториях. Автор рассматривает в статье дистанционную форму обучения как альтернативу традиционной форме преподавания в вузах на время периодов самоизоляции (пандемии, сезонные карантины), а также как дополнение к традиционным формам обучения. Анализируются проблемные и положительные аспекты применения данной формы. Указаны возможные форматы обучения в условиях дистанционного образования. Выделены сильные и слабые стороны использования некоторых технологий. Technologies alter the way of living and work of a person. The Internet world network makes it easier to quickly access useful information. Social, cultural and educational competitiveness are influenced by educational technologies that positively influence the style, duration and method of education in higher education institutions. Distance education can be used as a full-fledged self-sufficient form, or as a Supplement to classical training in classrooms. The author considers distance learning as an alternative to the traditional form of teaching in higher education institutions during periods of self-isolation (pandemics, seasonal quarantines), as well as as an addition to traditional forms of education. The problem and positive aspects of using this form are analyzed. Possible formats of training in the conditions of distance education are specified. The strengths and weaknesses of the use of certain technologies are highlighted.

This article focuses on the latest approaches to the effective delivery of distance education for the students of economic specialties in China’s higher education institutions in force majeure circumstances. Distance education was introduced due to the complex global epidemiological situation, unpredictable for the entire world community. The growing role and importance of distance learning in contemporary higher education overall and the education of economists in particular have been outlined. The need to use and constantly upgrade software and distance learning platforms is emphasized. The current Chinese approaches to the provision of the economists’ distance education in higher education institutions are outlined. The efficiency factors of the economists’ distance education in China’s higher education institutions were determined and substantiated. Namely, the following efficiency factors were considered: importance of approbation and implementation of the new interaction methods among the participants of the teaching and learning process, game approach application aimed at the formation of motivation of students to study, the creation and continuous modernization of the informational and educational environment of the university, the provision of a free access to up-to-date digital technology and information and communication learning technologies, the use and efficient combination of distance learning platforms in teaching disciplines, the formation of digital competence of students and teachers, as well as the openness of the colleges and university management and faculty to change. The effectiveness study of distance education provision for the students of economics was experimentally tested. The results of distance learning and teaching during the semester in force majeure circumstances were analyzed on the basis of empirical data from the students’ survey at the Department of Economics of a state-owned Chinese higher education institution. The research findings emphasize the feasibility of studying and analyzing China’s positive experience in the provision of distance learning economic education in force majeure circumstances. Recommendations for the implementation of China's experience in economists’ training in Eastern European universities were elaborated and presented.

ABSTRACT The More Doctors Program is a strategic set of actions for the Brazilian National Health System (SUS) aiming at improvements in medical education, professional qualification and retention of doctors in unassisted areas. Among these actions, we highlight the Project More Doctors for Brazil (PMMB), responsible for the emergency supply of doctors. It was conceived as a response to the shortage of professionals in primary care across the country, an extremely important aspect in this set of strategies for SUS. The professional improvement proposed by PMMB has mobilized public higher education institutions to participate as supervisory institutions. They are responsible for supervising the activities developed by doctors and for strengthening the continuing education policy through teaching-service integration actions. This article aims to report on the experience of managing academic supervision in light of the challenge of the implementation of PMMB.

The Impact

Universities play a key role in modern societies inserted into a globalized economic world. This chapter studies how informational competencies, entrepreneurship, and integral values in higher education are necessary to foster economic growth and fight corruption. The authors especially are focused on distance education as it can be a tool to fight poverty by diminishing high illiteracy rates, mainly existing in developing countries. The purpose of the chapter is two-fold: 1) to study the impact of informational competencies in both education and entrepreneurship, and 2) to emphasize the importance of acquiring integral values by learners to be applied into educational processes based on emotional intelligence. As a result, students will be defined as prospective entrepreneurs endowed with the ability to recognize, internalize and understand emotions to be adjusted into relations and business behavior to impulse their goals. And in this sense, online education has an important role to play, especially in postgraduate studies, as in the case of MOOCs that are also analyzed.

Hybrid Teaching

In the context of distance education, one aspect materialized by educational technology is through the use of learning objects (LO). These elements can be defined as educational digital resources that favor students' interaction with many languages and different media. This chapter aims to present two scenarios. The first one involves a case study about the production of didactic content. This study will focus on teaching and will consist of showing the rationale behind the content production method used by the company and the methodology used in the construction of learning objects in the context of a learning unit. The second scenario will consist of students' views by means of a survey conducted with more than 4 thousand students from higher education institutions (HEIs) from different regions of Brazil who consume the content and make use of the learning objects. The reflections point to the pedagogical potential of learning objects but also to concerns in view of great challenges posed by hybrid teaching within the Brazilian scenario.
