Abstract(s)
Esta investigação teve por objetivo investigar as possibilidades de criação de um
modelo de ebook interativo, com o título “A Lagoa de Óbidos”, no formato EPUB3, e a
compreensão das vantagens e desvantagens da sua utilização sustentada num painel com 21
participantes.
O formato EPUB (electronic publication) define um conjunto de características
específicas para a criação e a distribuição de publicações digitais. Estas especificações têm
sido desenvolvidas e implementadas pelo International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF) que,
em 2011, aprovou a versão 3, designada como EPUB3.
A inclusão de novas tecnologias - HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript - numa publicação
digital deu origem a esta investigação, um estudo de caso que pretendia conhecer as
potencialidades dessa integração em ebooks interativos e a sua possível utilização em
diferentes áreas do saber.
O trabalho da recolha de textos e a sua análise permitiram a criação de um protótipo
de ebook interativo, cujo objetivo era a estruturação das especificações que compõem a versão
EPUB3. As opiniões sobre as possibilidades que este modelo apresenta, ao nível da
usabilidade e dos recursos utilizados, foram colhidas através de um “Questionário de
Opinião”, onde participaram 21 voluntários.
O tema escolhido para o ebook foi “A Lagoa de Óbidos” por considerarmos um lugar
de memória cultural, com características paisagísticas, históricas, sociais e ambientais
reconhecidas e que lhe dão uma identidade própria merecedora de ser divulgada, através de
textos, imagens, vídeos, animações e jogos.
A análise dos resultados obtidos no “Questionário de Opinião”, leva-nos a concluir
que a maioria da amostra sentiu que a leitura do ebook foi uma experiência variada,
interessante e ativa. A totalidade achou que a interatividade trouxe benefícios à compreensão
dos assuntos.
Em síntese, a opinião dos sujeitos em relação ao ebook “A Lagoa de Óbidos foi
considerada bastante positiva. No entanto, a opinião quase uniforme dificulta a análise da
relação entre as variáveis do “Questionário de Opinião” levando à necessidade de aprofundar
este estudo.
The present study was aimed at investigating the possibilities to create a model of an interactive ebook, entitled "A Lagoa de Óbidos" in EPUB3 format, and to understand advantages and disadvantages of its sustained implementation on a panel with 21 participants. The EPUB format (electronic publication) defines a set of specific characteristics for the creation and distribution of digital publications. These specifications have been developed and implemented by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF), which in 2011 approved version 3, designated as EPUB3. The inclusion of new technologies – HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript - in digital publishing has set ground for this research, generated a case-study, and aimed to meet the potentialities of making such integration in interactive ebooks and their possible use in different areas of knowledge. Text collection and their analysis allowed the creation of an interactive prototype ebook, whose goal was to structure the specifications that comprise the EPUB3 version. Opinions regarding the possibilities that this model presents, in terms of resources and its usability, were collected through an "Opinion Questionnaire" where 21 volunteers have participated. The theme for the ebook "The Obidos Lagoon" was chosen by considering a place of cultural memory, with recognized landscape, historical, social and environmental characteristics and giving an identity worthy of being publicized through texts, images, videos, animations and games. The results obtained in the "Opinion Questionnaire" leads us to conclude that the majority of participants expressed a varied, interesting and active experience while reading this ebook. The majority of respondents agreed that interactivity provided a significant improvement of content comprehension. In summary, the opinion of the respondents in relation to the ebook "The Obidos Lagoon” was very positive. However, the differences of opinion among participants were too restrictive and the relationship between variables studied was too narrow. Thus, the need to proceed with further studies on the subject.
