NARRATIVAS DIGITALES COLABORATIVAS PARA LA CREACIÓN DE ENCUENTROS INTERCULTURALES EN UNA ESCUELA PÚBLICA EN MONTEVIDEO

Este artículo aborda la temática del acceso a la educación y las condiciones de permanencia de niños/as en situación de movilidad internacional, racializados, precarizados o en estado de vulnerabilidad socioeconómica. Se utilizó una metodología de investigación-acción que buscó recuperar los sentidos y las voces de niños/as sobre sus procesos de movilidad y recepción en una escuela pública de la ciudad de Montevideo. Para ello, se desarrolló un dispositivo de trabajo con mediadores tecno-digitales que propiciaron la producción de narrativas colaborativas. El análisis se organiza en base a dos ejes, uno vinculado al uso de un espacio virtual moodle en el aula y el otro, relativo a los procesos de colaboración y la producción de narrativas digitales. Las reflexiones finales se refieren al uso de tecnologías que favorezcan la integración de los estudiantes migrantes con sus compañeros locales, dando sentido y elaborando colectivamente los procesos de movilidad humana. A su vez, se plantea trascender el uso tecnológico instrumental, buscando construir propuestas creativas y al servicio del acompañamiento de las vivencias de la niñez migrante.

Introduction: The dynamic use of Internet facilities has shifted the teaching-learning process from traditional classroom teaching to the virtual learning environment. Aim: This quasi-experimental study was done to assess the effectiveness of a web-based teaching program designed on Moodle on “Psychopharmacology” for B. Sc. Nursing students. Settings and Design: Nonequivalent control group pretest posttest experimental design was used. A total of 90 nursing students were selected with total enumerative sampling from Amity College of Nursing, Haryana and Galgotias School of Nursing, Greater Noida. Subjects and Methods: A structured knowledge questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge of students regarding psychopharmacology. Group I, i.e., the experimental group received a web-based teaching program and Group II, i.e., control group received conventional teaching. Structured opinionnaire was used to assess the students' acceptance toward web-based teaching program. Results: The post mean knowledge score of students in experimental group (24.80 and 23.83 on day 11 and 21) and conventional teaching program (24.4 and 24.1 on day 11 and 21) was higher than their pre intervention knowledge scores in Group I (15.89) and Group II (15.25).

Atitudes Sociais e Formação Inicial de Professores para a Educação Especial

RESUMO Esta pesquisa propôs-se a verificar se, dentre três temáticas, comumente usadas em formações de professores para a Educação Especial, alguma apresentaria maior potencial para promover mudanças de atitudes sociais em estudantes de licenciaturas. Foi desenvolvido e implementado um programa de formação de professores com vistas a testar esse efeito nas seguintes temáticas: História, Políticas e Práticas Pedagógicas. O programa de formação foi desenvolvido no Moodle e dividido em três unidades, cada uma abordando uma das temáticas. Participaram do estudo 88 estudantes de licenciaturas distribuídos em três salas do Moodle. O ambiente do curso foi composto por três abas principais, concentrando as três temáticas a serem testadas, e foram criadas três salas virtuais separadas. Cada sala iniciou o curso por uma temática, as quais foram abordadas simultaneamente e intercaladas. Antes e após a participação dos cursistas na primeira unidade do curso, suas atitudes sociais foram mensuradas via Escala Likert de Atitudes Sociais em relação à inclusão (ELASI). Por meio de testes estatísticos, constatou-se que não houve diferença estatisticamente significante nas atitudes dos estudantes para cada uma das temáticas testadas entre as salas, bem como intrassalas. No entanto, há de considerar-se que a maioria dos cursistas já iniciou o curso com atitudes próximas ao extremo máximo da ELASI. Os resultados colocam para refletir que as temáticas abordadas em cursos de licenciatura apresentam certo potencial para promover mudanças de atitudes nos licenciandos, mas talvez seja o momento de repensar a abordagem e a significância dadas a essas disciplinas.

Mobilizing Learning: Using Moodle and Online Tools via Smartphones

The emergence of smart devices such as smartphones (e.g., iPhone) and tablets (e.g., iPad) may enhance e-learning by increasing communication and collaborative learning outside the classroom. These devices also facilitate the use of online technologies such as Facebook. However, the adaptation of Learning Management System (LMS) services to mobile devices took longer than social networks or online tools such as Facebook and Twitter have already been long used via smartphone. The main purposes of this study are to explore students’ skill levels of LMS (Moodle) and their knowledge of online tools or technologies and then examine if there is a correlation between smartphone use and using of online tools and Moodle in learning. The study conducted among 173 students in the Department of Information Studies (DIS) in Oman, using online survey. The study found that most students demonstrated high levels of accessing course/subject materials and regularly engaging with studies of using LMSs. YouTube, Wikipedia and Facebook were clearly recorded as the most popular sites among students while LinkedIn and Academia.edu were two online tools that had never been heard of by over half of the 142 participants. Emailing and searching are recorded the most popular online learning activities among students. The study concluded that students prefer to use smartphone for accessing these tools rather than using it to access LMSs, while a positive correlation was found between the use of these tools and smartphones, but there was no correlation between smartphones and using LMSs.

Design and performance evaluation of a virtualized Moodle-based e-learning environment

In this paper, benefits and advantages arising from virtualization technologies, applied to the field of distance education, are discussed and highlighted. Moodle, the most widely used Learning Management System, and a virtualization system, based on Xen hypervisor, are combined in order to create an effective e-learning environment. Commonly, the main problem about Moodle concerns the server workload, due to several factors, which results in a saturation of physical devices. To bypass this limit, the over-centralized load is deployed on a dynamic virtual machine. Experimental results prove that the proposed system can improve performances, produce low connection time and provide a good distance education environment.
