- Learning design for flexible higher education: roadmap to a european pilot developmentPublication . Morgado, Lina; Afonso, Ana Paula; Carvalho, Isabel CristinaEste artigo apresenta o processo de desenvolvimento da conceção e implementação de um curso piloto inovador no âmbito do projeto ERASMUS+, FLeD (Learning Design for Flexible Education), para promover práticas pedagógicas flexíveis e eficazes no ensino superior. Este projeto surge em resposta à necessidade identificada de uma aprendizagem eficaz em contextos mediados digitalmente, indo além da mera adaptação de métodos de ensino tradicionais a contextos virtuais, uma lacuna evidenciada pela pandemia da COVID-19 e pelo Plano Europeu de Educação Digital. O projeto-piloto visa explorar e expandir as competências digitais e a inovação pedagógica entre o pessoal docente das seis universidades participantes, que outras poderão posteriormente replicar. O principal objetivo do projeto FLeD é ajudar a conceber cenários de aprendizagem flexíveis, aplicando o método Flipped Learning (FL) e optimizando as tecnologias digitais para maximizar o tempo assíncrono e promover uma mudança sustentável para uma educação flexível.

- Learning design for flexible higher education : roadmap to an european pilot developmentPublication . Morgado, Lina; Afonso, Ana Paula; Carvalho, Isabel CristinaThis paper presents the development process for designing and implementing an innovative pilot course under the ERASMUS+ project, FLeD (Learning Design for Flexible Education), to promote flexible and effective pedagogical practices in higher education. This project arises in response to the identified need for effective learning in digitally mediated contexts, going beyond the mere adaptation of traditional teaching methods to virtual contexts, a gap highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the European Digital Education Plan. The pilot project aims to explore and expand digital competencies and pedagogical innovation among the teaching staff of the six participating universities, which others can subsequently replicate. The main goal of the FLeD project is to help design flexible learning scenarios by applying the Flipped Learning (FL) method and optimising digital technologies to maximise asynchronous time and promote a sustainable shift towards flexible education. The objectives of the pilot design include testing the effectiveness of the FLeD project's tool, assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the process, and refining resources to ensure a playful experience and the development of inclusive learning scenarios. The phases of this pilot project cover preparation, implementation, evaluation, discussion, and refinement, emphasising co-designing FL scenarios, implementation in a real context, gathering evidence, and analysis for continuous improvement. During the preparation phase, learner personas were defined, and participants were selected, followed by an online workshop. In the implementation phase, teachers collaborated in the design of FL scenarios, registered in the FLeD tool, co-created FL scenarios, received peer feedback, and shared scenarios. The scenarios were implemented in real contexts with the support of the FLeD tool and the guidelines provided. The pilot course began in December 2023, with teachers designing its content and familiarising themselves with the FLeD platform. Course scenarios are currently being implemented, and assessment instruments are being applied. By promoting innovative teaching practices and providing a pedagogical framework and guidelines for developing innovative learning scenarios, this project contributes to training teachers who are better prepared to use flexible and effective teaching strategies. The pilot project raises awareness of flipped learning by testing and refining the resources designed. It facilitates the adoption of pedagogical approaches that respond better to students' needs in diverse contexts (face-to-face, hybrid, and online). The successful implementation of the FLeD Project can transform how teaching is pedagogically designed in universities, making it more adaptable, inclusive, and engaging. Furthermore, by emphasising collaboration, feedback, and iterative improvement, the project establishes a model for continuous pedagogical innovation, impacting the quality of higher education and preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century.
- Innovative Digital Education and Skills (IDEAS)Publication . Morgado, Lina; Bidarra, José; Afonso, Ana Paula; Carvalho, Isabel Cristina; Rocha, Maria AntonietaO projeto IDEAS está focado no desenvolvimento de competências digitais dos professores através de um curso de formação de professores, oferecendo módulos microcredenciados que serão flexíveis e adaptados às necessidades de desenvolvimento profissional. Baseia-se no conceito de Desenvolvimento Profissional Contínuo, apoiado numa Comunidade de Práticas online. Um recurso relevante é o Guia de Boas Práticas do Professor, que tem como objetivo o desenvolvimento de competências digitais e abordagens pedagógicas adequadas. A natureza transnacional do projeto garante acesso a um alargado âmbito de competências digitais, podendo recorrer a abordagens de boas práticas e estudos de caso destacados por cada parceiro. Esta dimensão internacional, com parceiros do Reino Unido, Dinamarca, Malta e Portugal, inclui a experiência do LE@D e da Universidade Aberta na área do Ensino a Distância. A dimensão transnacional resultará num impacto, disseminação e exploração mais alargados, permitindo uma transferência eficaz de conhecimentos. Os resultados e recomendações decorrentes do projeto terão impacto nas políticas, práticas e sustentabilidade europeias.
- Exploring the role of digital assistants and chatbots as learning companions in open and distance learningPublication . Morgado, Lina; Oliveira, Teresa; Afonso, Ana Paula; Carvalho, Isabel Cristina; Ferret, NathalieOs assistentes digitais, tutores virtuais ou chatbots melhoraram significativamente o seu apoio às actividades de ensino, especialmente no caso do ensino à distância. Os avanços tecnológicos permitiram a integração destes dispositivos em várias plataformas, nomeadamente nos LMS. No ensino à distância, o apoio ao estudante é crucial, uma vez que este tipo de ensino é inteiramente mediado pela tecnologia. De acordo com a literatura, os estudantes encontram frequentemente dificuldades devido à falta de compreensão das tarefas e a factores emocionais relacionados com os seus professores e tutores (Oliveira & Morgado, 2020). Esta comunicação relata as nossas experiências de integração de assistentes digitais (tutores virtuais e chatbots) em contextos académicos, de desenvolvimento profissional e de apoio científico a estudantes de e-learning em EAD e formação de professores.
