Este artigo apresenta uma pesquisa de dissertação, na qual se buscou desenvolver uma ferramenta de visualização de Dados Abertos (Open Data) para uso no processo de ensino e aprendizagem em uma turma do terceiro ano do Ensino Médio na disciplina de Geografia. Teve como objetivo principal verificar como essa ferramenta influenciaria nesse processo. Para atingir o objetivo do trabalho, foi realizada uma pesquisa preponderantemente qualitativa com natureza descritiva, com referencial teórico baseado na aprendizagem significativa e no uso das tecnologias da informação e comunicação no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Foi realizada uma entrevista inicial junto ao professor da disciplina e a aplicação de questionários ao professor e aos alunos do terceiro ano, após o uso da aplicação de visualização de dados abertos e, por fim, foi proposto um teste avaliativo entre turmas que usaram o aplicativo e turmas que não o usaram. Na análise dos resultados, concluiu-se que a ferramenta trouxe vários aspectos positivos no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, como uma atenção maior por parte dos alunos em relação ao conteúdo, uma motivação a mais no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, tendo apresentado aspectos relacionados à aprendizagem significativa e mostrado que os alunos que fizeram o uso da aplicação tiveram um melhor desempenho em relação aos que não fizeram o uso da tecnologia no conteúdo proposto na disciplina.Palavras-Chave: Educação.

Role Of Information

The emergence of big data, digital scholarship and eResearch raises the question of how these digital developments in research methods and practices affect research students. This paper presents findings from a phenomenographic study that investigated postgraduate students’ conceptions of the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) in research. Ten students conducting research in the broad area of educational technology were interviewed. Three qualitatively different conceptions of ICT in research were identified: complementary, enhancing, and transforming. Results indicate that the three conceptions were closely associated with the expanding students’ focus from seeing ICT as a tool in the researchers’ hands, to noting that digital technologies may have implications for the process of inquiry, to seeing that ICT has distinct generative capacities and changes the nature of research practices. Findings suggest that students’ general understanding of ICT’s potential in research is underpinned not by abstract knowledge, but by their practical experiences of how ICT works and their abilities to see how technologies can enhance researchers’ individual capacities to generate knowledge in specific situations. Some implications for postgraduate research students’ education and capacity building are discussed.

Use of technology in education has been widespread in the last decade, thanks to developments and improvements in information and communication technologies, especially in mobile devices. Among the fields in which mobile devices play important roles, education is one of the leading ones. Mobile devices help teachers and learners access educational resources when needed. To increase the reality of virtual learning environments on mobile devices, Augmented Reality (AR) technologies were introduced for mobile platforms, and the term Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) arose. MAR opens a new door for educators and trainers to experience new methods of teaching for mobile learners. In this chapter, educational use of AR on mobile devices will be explained. Throughout the content of the chapter, readers will be informed about how AR applications changed people's teaching and learning styles.

The use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has undoubtedly influenced children, adolescents, and young people's social interactions and behavior. The use of technology has not only positive but also negative consequences. In recent years, research has shifted from traditional bullying to new forms of bullying, such as cyberbullying. In Greece, there is a research gap in investigating this phenomenon among students of Ecclesiastical Schools. This paper investigates the frequency of bullying and victimization of these students through digital means, as well as their views on the role of Ecclesiastical Education in the prevalence of cyberbullying.

Role Of Information

If we want to convert our rural population into knowledge driven, progressive, self sufficient, self reliant, sustainable society, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) cannot be ignored. Timely availability information is considered as most important factor in Indian agriculture. At present ICT is the technology of this millennium. Transferring the developed technology to all end users is time-consuming and tiresome task and is often not completed due to paucity of resources and lack of manpower. In India, agriculture and rural development has gained significantly from ICT due to its widespread extension and adoption. In this era of internet, ICT is committed to provide real, timely accurate authentic information to the farmers and rural peoples.
