Ana Amélia Amorim Carvalho; Cristina Almeida Aguiar; Henrique Dinis dos Santos; Lia Raquel Oliveira; Aldina Marques; Romana Maciel

This paper reports the use of podcasts in blended-learning at the University of Minho, in Portugal. Six lecturers created their own podcasts with different purposes in order to support their undergraduate and graduate courses and their students’ (n=318) learning. The reported study belongs to a broader project about the impact of podcasts in blended-learning and it reports data from two semesters. Results give evidence of students’ acceptance regarding podcasts although they do not yet make use of the advantages of media and mobile technologies. The lecturers considered podcasts worthwhile for teaching and for students to learn, but they are time-consuming and there is no institutional recognition. In spite of this, they intend to continue using podcasts in their courses.

New Interaction Paradigms to Fight the Digital Divide: A Pilot Case Study Regarding Multi-Touch Technology

Abstract Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are considered a powerful tool for economic development and the growth of societies. However, instead of helping overcome societys inequalities caused by the digital era, they have instigated an increase of the people that rested aside of the information age. The digital divide refers to the difficulty info- excluded people have in keeping up with technological advances. This phenomenon was triggered by the rapid growth and dissemination of technological equipment, as a portion of society did not have the proper time or knowledge to adjust. This paper sets forth a new approach to help fight the Portuguese digital divide by presenting new ways of interaction. Resorting to multi-touch technology, we examine how this new natural interaction paradigm can have a positive influence in the struggle against info-exclusion. For this purpose, we present a multi-touch game envisioned to encourage and teach digitally excluded people on how to use an important and needed everyday equipment – the ATM (Automated Teller Machine) – as it is still avoided by some. We believe that our pilot case study can show preliminary results on how natural user interfaces may be beneficial to help overcome some difficulties enforced by the digital divide. We consider that our findings may be valuable to show a possible path of how the new natural user interfaces can help bring technology and people closer. After being asked about their user experience, the participants of this exploratory study agreed that the game encouraged them to explore more about new technologies.

A PERCEPÇÃO DO PROFESSOR SOBRE SUAS COMPETÊNCIAS EM TECNOLOGIAS DA INFORMAÇÃO E COMUNICAÇÃO

Vera Rejane Niedersberg Schuhmacher; Elcio Schuhmacher; Lia Raquel Oliveira; Clara Pereira Coutinho

A insercao das tecnologias da informacao e comunicacao – TIC no Ensino Superior vem sendo apontada como uma certeza na pratica docente de professores. E pouco, no entanto, o que se sabe sobre como tal insercao vem ocorrendo e como o formador percebe as competencias necessarias para seu uso e apropriacao no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Este artigo relata os resultados da investigacao realizada com professores do Ensino Superior da Universidade do Minho – Portugal em que se perscrutou a percepcao do professor acerca de suas competencias em TIC, motivacoes e potencialidades que o mobilizam para esta insercao. A pesquisa mista (qualitativa e quantitativo) fez uso da tecnica de questionario e da analise categorial para a analise dos registros. Os resultados se estruturam apresentando um professor que acredita na insercao curricular das TIC e em suas potencialidades, mas a introducao em sua pratica se faz presente de forma operacional denotando a carencia de competencias didatico- pedagogicas na integracao das TIC.
