Abstract(s)
A realização de atividades práticas em contexto laboratorial desempenha um papel
essencial no ensino das engenharias e de outras áreas científicas. Neste sentido, os
laboratórios remotos e virtuais estão a ganhar importância e destaque nas escolas e
universidades, pois permitem a redução de custos em equipamentos e manutenção,
possibilitam a realização de experiências práticas no ensino à distância e permitem a
partilha de recursos entre instituições de ensino.
Todavia, a avaliação e acompanhamento de atividades em contextos não tradicionais é um
processo complexo e demorado, que traz novos desafios para os professores. Facto que
pode limitar a adoção generalizada deste tipo de ferramentas.
A presente dissertação descreve o processo de análise, conceção, desenvolvimento e
avaliação de um protótipo de um laboratório remoto para o ensino de redes de
computadores, integrado com a plataforma Inven!RA. Esta, permite a recolha de analytics
relevantes durante a realização de planos de atividades, possibilitando assim, que os
professores consultem dashboards de acompanhamento que os auxiliem no processo de
avaliação da sua intervenção pedagógica, de acordo com o progresso dos alunos, num
ambiente integrado com uma plataforma de e-learning.
Os resultados obtidos revelam que o protótipo do laboratório criado, permite o
desenvolvimento de diversas atividades de redes de computadores, oferece um contributo
efetivo ao acompanhamento dos alunos por parte dos professores, acolhe novas dinâmicas
de trabalho dentro e fora da sala de aula e promove metodologias ativas de aprendizagem.
The realization of practical activities in a laboratory context plays an essential role in the education of engineering and other scientific areas. The use of remote and virtual laboratories has become increasingly popular solutions in schools and universities. Its use allows for a reduction in equipment and maintenance costs, makes it possible to carry out practical experiences in distance learning contexts and allows the sharing of resources between educational institutions. However, the evaluation and monitoring of activities in non-traditional contexts is a complex and time-consuming process, which brings new challenges for instructors. This fact may limit the widespread adoption of this type of tools. This dissertation describes the process of analysis, design, development and evaluation of a prototype for a remote laboratory for computer network education, integrated with the Inven!RA platform. This enables the collection of relevant analytics during the execution of activity plans, which allows teachers to consult monitoring dashboards that helps them in the process of evaluating their pedagogical intervention, according to the student’s progress, in an integrated environment with an e-learning platform. The obtained results reveal that the created prototype of the laboratory, allows the development of several activities for computer networks, offers an effective contribution to the monitoring of students by instructors, welcomes new dynamics of work inside and outside the classroom and promotes active learning methodologies.
