Abstract(s)
Vivemos um novo paradigma social, onde a informação circula intensamente através de redes mediadas pela tecnologia. A nossa participação nestas redes determina o acesso ao conhecimento e à reconfiguração de processos relacionais, o que nos traz grandes desafios mas também oportunidades de aprender e evoluir para melhor respondermos às nossas necessidades pessoais ou profissionais. Assim, utilizar as redes sociais digitais confere-nos poder no acesso ao conhecimento e integra-nos numa cultura participativa online. Neste contexto, é essencial considerar novos caminhos para as aprendizagens, diferentes e inovadores, que respondam às necessidades dos indivíduos ao longo da sua vida. Assumimos, então, como finalidade deste texto refletir sobre a relação entre as redes sociais e a Educação Aberta, explorando como as novas necessidades de aprender se cruzam com as dinâmicas sociais possibilitadas pela vida online.
As redes sociais digitais deram-nos novos horizontes, nos quais já não somos apenas meros consumidores de informação, tornando-nos em produtores de conhecimento, implicando o desenvolvimento de novas competências. Neste sentido, os agentes educacionais devem desempenhar um papel importante na implementação de novas estratégias e metodologias de forma a responderem às novas necessidades dos indivíduos. Assim, as redes sociais digitais oferecem novas oportunidades para a educação, contribuindo para contornar a distância física e temporal, viabilizando interações sociais enriquecedoras em benefício da aprendizagem ao longo da vida. Mas também se constata que são necessários novos conteúdos e metodologias educacionais, atendendo aos diferentes tipos de aprendizagens, cada vez mais personalizados, sobretudo, através dos novos meios de difusão online, como são as redes sociais digitais.
We live a new social paradigm, where information circulates intensely through networks mediated by technology. Our participation in these networks determines the access to knowledge and the reconfiguration of the relational processes, which brings us great challenges but also opportunities, namely to learn and evolve, to better respond to our personal or professional needs. Thus, using digital social networks gives us the power to access knowledge and integrates us into an online participatory culture. In this context, it is essential to consider new paths for learning, different and innovative, that respond to the needs of individuals throughout their lives. We assume, therefore, as the purpose of this text, to reflect on the relationship between social networks and Open Education, exploring how the new needs of learning retate to the social dynamics made possible by life online. Digital social networks have given us new horizons, in which we are no longer mere consumers of information, becoming knowledge producers, implying the development of new skills. In this sense, educational agents must play an important role in the implementation of new strategies and methodologies in order to respond to the new needs of individuals. Thus, digital social networks offer new opportunities for education, helping to overcome physical and temporal distance, enabling enriching social interactions for the benefit of lifelong learning. But it is also seen that new content and educational methodologies are needed, attending to the different types of learning, increasingly customized, especially through the new online media, such as digital social networks.
