- A configuração de comunidades de aprendizagem em blended learning no ensino superiorPublication . Moreira, J. António; Almeida, Ana CristinaEm tempos de profundas transformações sociais, económicas e culturais e vertiginosa evolução das tecnologias de informação e da comunicação deparamo-nos com a necessidade de redefinir pedagogia, também, no Ensino Superior. O enfoque nas competências e o apelo à mobilidade pelo Processo de Bolonha convidam a um paradigma educacional que privilegie novas formas de pensar, desenvolver e avaliar os processos de formação centrados no estudante e nas suas estratégias de autorregulação e domínio de ferramentas mediatizadas pelas oportunidades tecnológicas e reflexividade em parceria, sob supervisão dos professores facilitadores da aprendizagem. Este trabalho visa, pois, ilustrar a operatividade de modelos em blended learning, analisando o impacto de novos cenários de aprendizagem na criação de comunidades, de aprendizagem baseada em problemas. Para tal, exploramos relações possíveis entre modalidades de ensino presencial e online, em que a relação pedagógica estabelecida face-a-face é confrontada com a criação de comunidades virtuais de aprendizagem e de investigação.
- A/r/cography: art, research and communicationPublication . Veiga, Pedro Alves daThis article aims at establishing the foundations for a/r/cography as an “art and communication”-based research methodology, inspired by a/r/tography yet more encompassing, and particularly suitable for the digital art world. As part of the larger family of practice-based research methodologies, a/r/tography presents various ways through which it can be explored, but since it is aimed at the arts and education, its scope is forcibly hampered by the fact that not all researchers and art practitioners are necessarily teachers. However, since most of its underlying principles can be extended for non-teachers, thus arose the idea to propose a methodology that would retain ontological, epistemological and methodological assumptions, but would expand beyond the limitations imposed by the role of the teacher. This extension is called a/r/cography and is structured upon the interchangeable roles of artist, researcher and communicator, as being intrinsic to the underlying living inquiry processes. Furthermore, this proposal is supported by the author’s own experience from a/r/cographic processes in the creation, exhibition and communication of digital artworks.
- Abordagem a um modelo conceptual para análise diacrónica comparativa das interacções comunidades humanas-ambientais em zonas costeiras: o exemplo dos sistemas lagunares de Aveiro (Poortugal) e araruama (Brasil)Publication . Pereira, Olegário Nelson Azevedo; Bastos, Rosário; Fonseca, Luís Cancela da; Dias, João AlveirinhoAs análises de longaduração acerca das relações comunidades humanasambiente em sistemas lagunares costeiros são ainda escassas. Nesse sentido, não estão estabelecidos modelos conceptuais que avaliem comparativamente tais relações. O facto dos sistemas lagunares incorporarem complexas estruturas de interface entre a geosfera, a hidrosfera, a atmosfera, a biosfera e a antroposfera, requer abordagens inter/multi/transdisciplinares, situação que, aparentemente, tem coibido o surgir de propostas nesse sentido. Tomando como casos de estudo as lagunas de Aveiro (PT) e Araruama (BR), foram revistos os trabalhos respeitantes a esse tema e os respectivos modelos conceptuais aplicados na interpretação desenvolvida. Nos dois trechos lagunares em apreço, a respectiva literatura científica é escassa. A análise do estado da arte revela cinco trabalhos para Aveiro e apenas um para Araruama, pelo que considerámos pertinente o tema aqui em foco. A concepção de um modelo de análise diacrónica comparativa tem de estar cientificamente apoiada em abordagens interdisciplinares, propiciadoras de nos fornecerem dados relevantes sobre as influências antrópicas observadas ao longo da História nas alterações das paisagens lagunares e viceversa. Apelando à integração das Ciências Naturais e Sociais, tais como a Ecologia, a Geologia, a Climatologia, a Oceanografia, a Arqueologia e a História, a aplicação da aludida metodologia revela padrões de assentamento humano, exploração de recursos naturais e alterações da paisagem que se repetem nos dois sistemas e resultam em problemas semelhantes relacionados com as suas sustentabilidade e resiliência. Apelase, por isso, a uma abordagem integrada num recémramo da História, o da História Ambiental. Como é de propostas deste género, este modelo pode ser aplicdo a outros sistemas lagunares costeiros com origem no desenvolvimento de restingas arenosas e localizados em médias e baixas latitudes. A sua aplicação pode estimular medidas políticas para evitar os seus riscos e vulnerabilidades socioambientais.
