Abstract(s)
Na última década, as redes sociais proliferaram e, tanto a nível pessoal, como a nível profissional, têm vindo a influenciar significativamente as pessoas independentemente da sua idade, género, raça ou status social. A reflexão sobre a utilização destas em contexto escolar e as suas potencialidades a vários níveis (motivação, ensino e aprendizagem, comunidades de práticas e interação entre os pares, entre outros níveis) não podem ser descuradas na sociedade digital em que vivemos. Neste contexto, este trabalho pretende apresentar a utilização da aplicação Google “Classroom” em contexto escolar, por um professor do ensino superior, num Curso Técnico Superior Profissional no ano letivo 2018-2019, de uma escola superior de educação do nordeste transmontano de Portugal. A operacionalização deste estudo baseou-se essencialmente numa análise de conteúdo das interações e do tipo de funcionalidades que a aplicação possibilita, com vista a relatar e discutir o uso desta como uma plataforma de ensino e de aprendizagem e compreender a forma como esta pode integrar-se no processo ensino e de aprendizagem e no desenvolvimento das relações entre professor-aluno e aluno-aluno. As várias ferramentas disponíveis na aplicação permitiram a criação de turmas, o lançamento de comunicados ou avisos, a configuração de mecanismos de avaliação e de reflexão sobre trabalhos de alunos, para além da associação a outras aplicações como Google Drive para estender as funcionalidades, entre outros serviços desta ferramenta. Mas adequar-se-á esta ferramenta aos requisitos de um Curso Técnico Superior Profissional do Ensino Superior? Geralmente, podemos afirmar que a aplicação Google Classroom disponibiliza funcionalidades que favorecem um maior e melhor envolvimento de professores e alunos no processo de ensino e de aprendizagem, estimulando a interação entre professor e alunos. Contudo, não há propriamente uma funcionalidade que se tenha destacado para além da integração das diversas funcionalidades disponíveis nas diversas aplicações Google.
Over the past decade, social networks have proliferated and, both personally and professionally, have significantly influenced people regardless of their age, gender, race or social status. Reflection on their use in the school context and their potential at various levels (motivation, teaching and learning, communities of practice and peer interaction, among other levels) cannot be neglected in the digital society in which we live. In this context, this paper intends to present the use of the Google Classroom in the school context, by a higher education teacher, in a Vocational Higher Technical Course in the 2018-2019 school year, from a northeastern school of education in Portugal. The operationalization of this study was based essentially on a content analysis of the interactions and the type of functionalities that the application enables, in order to report and discuss its use as a teaching and learning platform and to understand how it can be integrated in the teaching and learning process and the development of teacher-student-student-student relationships. The different tools available in the app have enabled the creation of classes, the release of announcements or notices, the setting up of assessment and reflection mechanisms for student work, as well as the association with other applications such as Google Drive to extend functionality, among others services of this tool. But will this tool fit the requirements of a Vocational Higher Technical Course? Generally, we can say that the Google Classroom app provides features that favor greater and better involvement of teachers and students in the teaching and learning process, encouraging interaction between teacher and students. However, there is not exactly one feature that has stood out beyond the integration of the various features available in the various Google applications.
