Paper Abstract:
|
In this paper we describe a functional model that will be used to develop learning units supported by streaming media
contents. The main goal is to test this new methodology by carrying out several pedagogical experiences with students
and teachers from different scientifics areas, from Engineering to Education. More precisely, the target courses are
Applied Mathematics, Computation Systems, Digital Control and Methods and Techniques of Educational
Administration.
Streaming media is viewed as a tool to support innovative pedagogical activities, capable of addressing the new
challenges introduced by the current demands of pedagogical environments. The teacher must be capable to formulate
new teaching strategies to guarantee the expected learning levels and the entailment of the communication and the
interactivity that should exist inside of the classroom. Besides, it demands to the student adaptation to a new contents
format, more oriented to a context of virtual learning characterized by a larger flexibility.
This model requires a carefully unit learning design. All the three main actors, students, teachers and contents, must
articulate together, in order to find out how this teaching/learning pedagogical system can be augmented by streaming
media contents with dynamic characteristics. |
