Utilização de ferramentas interativas na educação mediada por tecnologia: uma proposta para a formação docente

Abstract

Technological resources have been increasingly used in distance education due to advances in new tools and the spread of broadband with respect to Brazil's national scope. Its potential for interactivity and access as interactions between human-human and human-machine promises once and for all to facilitate the high school process through communications. With the popularization of Virtual Learning Environments (AVA), the use of systems has become a necessary tool for the intermediation of the process and for the optimization of the information / data that all pass through on a daily basis. Among the environments available on the market, we highlight the Moodle (Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment), for being a free and open source system, which allows the incorporation of new tools. However, it is clear that Moodle, in its current situation, still suffers from the absence of native tools that provide learning with a greater degree of interactivity and that includes a greater power of immediate feedback from users. In this way, this work includes integrating the use of two free software available in the Moodle community, the RecordRTC and H5P plug-ins, which allows an easy way to implement e-Learning modules (e-LMS) for Moodle. The experimentation and validation of the tools used happened through the creation of a self-instructional course, offered to professors at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte.
