Abstract(s)
A introdução de eLearning no Ensino Superior é um processo com sucesso a
nível mundial; é uma pedra angular para a construção de sociedades em
desenvolvimento.
Portugal a nível do Ensino Superior apresenta já iniciativas no ensino do eLearning,
mas as mesmas são extremamente diversas e durante alguns anos um pequeno
número de Universidades e Institutos promoviam efetivamente alternativas reais
de aprendizagem baseadas em tecnologias de informação e comunicação.
Pelo contrário, estas iniciativas centravam-se no uso das plataformas de eLearning
(Moodle) no apoio documental às Unidades Curriculares. O caráter exploratório da
iniciativa de eLearning do Instituto Superior Politécnico de Portalegre, um Instituto do Ensino Superior Politécnico público, tem características próprias que promovem
o seu interesse científico e académico. Por um lado, porque a iniciativa decorre
da visão estratégica do Instituto e da necessária adequação da sua prática
académica ao paradigma de Bolonha. Por outro lado, porque a sua situação
geográfica o solicita, bem como a situação económica dos nossos estudantes.
Este artigo descreve o percurso do eLearning no Instituto Politécnico de Portalegre,
a avaliação ao longo do ano letivo 2012/2013 e 1.ºsemestre de 2013/2014 em
que se procedeu a algumas Unidades Curriculares de 2.ºciclo e Pós-Graduação
oferecidas no IPP em Blended Learning e à definição dos modelos pedagógicos
adaptados ao módulo de ambientação online para os estudantes.
The introduction of e-Learning in Higher Education is a worldwide successful process and a cornerstone for the growth of developing societies. In Portugal there are already some initiatives being developed in e-Learning teaching in Higher Education, but they are extremely diverse and for years only a few Universities and Institutes have effectively promoted real learning alternatives based on information and communication technologies. On the contrary, these experiments focused on the use of e-Learning platforms (MOODLE) for documentary support to Curricular Units. The exploratory nature of the e-Learning initiative of the Polytechnic Institute of Portalegre, a public Higher Education Polytechnic Institution, presents unique characteristics, which state its scientific and academic interest. On the one hand, this initiative derives both from the strategic vision laid down by the Institute and from the necessary adjustment of its academic practice to the Bologna paradigm. On the other hand, both its own geographical situation requires it, as well as the student’s economic situation. This paper describes the e-Learning process at the Polytechnic Institute of Portalegre, the assessment undertaken throughout the academic year 2012/2013 and the 1st Semester 2013/2014, the period in which some Blended Learning Curricular Units were offered in 2nd Cycle and Post-Graduation Degree Courses, and when the pedagogical models adapted to the students’ module of online adaptation were defined.
