- MULTIMODAL CREATIVITY AT THE SERVICE OF FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING IN HIGHER EDUCATION IN PORTUGAL: THE JASM PROJECTPublication . Costa Lopes, Ana Maria; Costa, Cristina Amaro da; Coutinho, Emília; Oliveira, Isabel; Pereira, José; Gillain, Romain; MOTA ROBOREDO AMANTE, FÁTIMA SUSANA; Fidalgo, Susana; Rocha Relvas, Susana; Delplancq, Véronique; JPBReviewThe JASM project used the Korsakow6 platform to produceStorytellingin foreign languages (FL), by students of the Media Studies degree course (Higher Education-HE) of the Escola Superior de Educação de Viseu(ESEV, Portugal).Objective: Look into the impact of non-linear digital narratives upon FL learning in HE, assessing the role of multimodal tools in fostering linguistic, cultural, and technological skills.Theoretical Framework: The study was grounded in active methodologies with a focus on integrating intercultural skills. Using new technologies is a catalyst forenhancing student motivation and autonomy.Method: The project, developed within the context of French and English, involved 25 voluntarily participating students attending the first year. Following language level tests, each group gathered information about the nationality and culture of migrants living in Viseu. Students conducted interviews and documented migrants’ life stories, traditions, using digital narratives. Final outputs included short films, social media posts, exhibitions, and an e-book. Results and Discussion: Students enhanced cognitive, emotional and aesthetic skills within collaborative environments, integrating experiences from multilingual and multicultural contexts with creative and multimodal abilities and increased autonomy and initiative. Challenges were identified, highlighting the need for ongoing teacher training.Research Implications: This project showed how digital and active pedagogies can foster the development of FL and intercultural competencies in HE students.Originality/Value: This study provides for an innovative approach relying on multimodal technologies for teaching FL in HE. The transformative potential of digital narratives as an impactful pedagogical tool is highlighted.
- Contextos de democratização do acesso ao ensino superior: uma abordagem sociológica sobre o Instituto Politécnico de ViseuPublication . Sousa, Luis Nuno Figueiredo eA instituição do ensino politécnico em Portugal permitiu uma efetiva democratização do acesso ao ensino superior. Contudo, este processo foi de implementação morosa e não isenta de persistentes dicotomias com o seu congénere ensino universitário. É questionável que, a instituição do sistema de ensino superior binário, permitiu uma redistribuição da oferta regional e a possibilidade de sectores da sociedade, socioeconomicamente mais desfavorecidos, acederem ao ensino superior, contribuído para o atenuar das dicotomias geográficas, sociais e económicas. Pretendemos, nesta reflexão, abordar o caso específico do Instituto Politécnico de Viseu, como a primeira instituição deste subsistema de ensino a ser implementada a nível nacional. Partimos de dados obtidos em investigações ocorridas entre 2006 e 2020, procurando, numa perspetiva longitudinal, verificar alterações nos perfis sociais dos seus alunos, nas suas motivações de acesso ao ensino e nas suas expetativas profissionais, após a obtenção do diploma de licenciado. Os resultados evidenciam um aumento da representatividade dos alunos finalistas das classes de baixos recursos económicos e qualificacionais e uma diminuição dos alunos das classes médias, a persistência de uma procura regional da educação superior e elevadas expetativas dos alunos face à importância da obtenção do diploma no seu futuro profissional.
- Educação e Cocriação no Metaverso numa abordagem mistaPublication . Sousa, Catarina Carneiro de; Rodrigues, Paula; Rito, Pedro NevesA atividade “Educação e Cocriaçãono Metaverso numa abordagem mista”, realizou-se no âmbito do Projeto IPV Inova e Inclui visando desenvolver um simulador em ambiente virtual de representaçãodo Instituto Politécnico de Viseu. Para criar este espaço imersivo, foram dinamizadasworkshopsde cocriaçãotransversais e multidisciplinares em ambientes virtuais colaborativos e criativos.Propomos uma análise especulativa dos resultados dos processos de ensino-aprendizagem destas workshopsà luz do entendimento tridimensional da imersãoformulado por Morgado (2022),para compreender onde podemos situar este caso em termos da imersão pelo sistema, da imersão pela narrativa, e da imersão pela agência. Consideramos que estefoi um caso de aprendizagem imersiva com elevados níveis de imersão nos três eixos, destacando-se a imersão pelo sistema e pela agência.
- As atividades gímnicas na formação e desenvolvimento das criançasPublication . Azevedo, António Manuel Tavares; Mendes Ribeiro Eira, Paulo Alexandre; Lourenço, Carla; Almeida, MarisaIntroduction: Gymnastics contributes to the education and development of children, as well as in the various proposals associated with Physical Education (PE) in Elementary School. These activities allow self-confidence and enthusiasm, reflected on children´s performance, persistence, well-being, self-esteem and their ability to concentrate. Objectives: To assess the importance of technical activities for the motor development and education of children and whether schools promote and create spaces for the development of these activities. Methods: The study group comprises 2 distinct sets, totaling 36 children. The BOT2 motor proficiency test was used and, later, descriptive and inferential analysis of the data was used using the 28th version 28 of Statistical Software SPSS. Results: Significant differences were evidenced between groups regarding the degree of fine motor precision, fine motor integration and manual dexterity. Conclusion: Gymnastics contributes to children´s cross-sectional development, associated with numerous biopsychosocial benefits. Its activities developed in school, through PE, allow the recreation of gestures and other elements in various contexts, especially in the self-directed activities of school playgrounds. PE plays a crucial role in children´s social integration and, Gymnastics in particular, makes them a more active and conscious citizen, also providing body autonomy and increased capacity for expression in groups.
- Maximization and optimization in sports organizationsPublication . Azevedo, António Manuel Tavares; Mendes Ribeiro Eira, Paulo AlexandreIntroduction: The importance of the study of organizations as social entities of human development and as fundamental agents of change and evolution, that is, as true institutions, leads to the need for their research in the context of Sport. Objetive: This study aims to analyze the appreciation that sports organizations attribute to the principles of Maximization and Optimization. Methods: Azevedo's institutional analysis questionnaire (2014) was used to assess the degree of agreement of sports communities, and organizations were later characterized in typological quadrants according to Figueiredo's mesoscopic analysis model (2006). The study included 154 respondents, belonging to and distributed by the 24 local sports organizations of Viseu’s district and with different positions in their hierarchical structures. Results: The results reveal significant differences in the valuation attributed to both the Maximize pole and the Optimization pole, as well as the integration of organizations into typologies from 1st to 4th quadrants, according to their preferences. Conclusion: The intentions of sports communities aim to regulate and provide stability to organizational social and sports behavior, so as to be accepted and recognized by their peers.
- A leitura de textos plurilíngues por estudantes surdos a partir de uma abordagem de intercompreensão: enfoques sobre a dimensão psicológicaPublication . Lúgaro, Carolina; Araújo e Sá, Maria Helena; Silva, Ana IsabelA intercompreensão como abordagem plurilíngue pode favorecer o desenvolvimento das multiliteracias dos estudantes surdos, integrando-os em um mundo multilíngue e multimodal. Este artigo se apoia naimplementação, junto de estudantes surdos de Brasil e Portugal, de um Programa de Intercompreensão em Línguas com foco na leitura, que objetivou desenvolver as suas multiliteracias. O eixo psicológico do referencial que suporta o Programa envolve a abertura às línguas e à diversidade, motivação e confiança para lidar com o novo, a descoberta das relações entre línguas e a vontade de explorá-las. Os dados analisados provêm das videogravações das sessões do Programa; registros no diário da investigadora e atividades dos alunos. Os resultados indicam que construir sentidos em línguas pouco conhecidas pelos estudantes demandou investimento cognitivo e psicológico, no qual autoconfiança, disposição para arriscar e resiliência foram fundamentais. O diálogo, a multimodalidade do Programa e a combinação de modalidades linguísticas na comunicação favoreceram a mobilização e expansão dos repertórios dos participantes e o desenvolvimento das suas multiliteracias.
- A investigação em resolução de problemas, raciocínio, comunicação e modelação: Uma análise de 30 anos de publicações na revista QuadrantePublication . Brocardo, Joana; Vale, Isabel; Menezes, LuísThis article analyses the papers published in Quadrante between 1992-2021 that focus on the mathematical processes of Problem Solving, Reasoning, Communication, and Modelling. The analysis was grounded on 102 papers associated with keywords related to each of those themes, leading to subcategories of analysis. We notice the relevance of the tasks in supporting the learning of these processes, while characteristics that should be present in their design are proposed. It becomes clear the importance of the way the teacher designs, explores and manages classroom interactions and a tension is identified between exploratory and direct approaches for teaching mathematics. The idea that problem solving is an important part of what it means to teach and learn, either as a skill, as a content, and/or as a teaching/learning methodology, is underlined, and its demanding nature is noted; several ideas are also suggested to promote problem solving teaching practice. The understanding of reasoning as not being limited to deductive reasoning and the discussion about the characteristics and/or potentialities of reasoning associated with multiple mathematical topics is highlighted; moreover, characteristics associated with proof, justification and generalization are proposed. It is also emphasized that mathematical modelling experiences can support learning, stressing the importance of using different technological tools. Keywords: mathematical problem solving; mathematical reasoning; mathematical communication; mathematical modelling.
- All My Independent Women: An Art Network on Gender IssuesPublication . Sousa, Catarina Carneiro de; Cruz, CarlaAll My Independent Women (AMIW) is an ongoing artistic project based on the debate around gender issues. Its primary aim is to bring to light feminist practices, underrepresented in the Portuguese context. This project was initiated in Portugal but expanded beyond national borders, and now takes place irregularly in various parts of the world. In this article, we will focus on the importance of this international network that grows each year and the way the Internet enhances this process. The several editions have taken the form of art exhibitions that materialize the collective reading of Portuguese feminist books — first “Dicionário da Crítica Feminista / Dictionary of Feminist Criticism” and later, “Novas Cartas Portuguesas / New Portuguese Letters”, both milestones of Portuguese feminist thought. However, the project went beyond the conventional exhibition format by expanding itself in cyberspace, through the use of social media and online virtual environments: the metaverse.
- Kromosomer – an Experience in Shared Creative Work and ExpressionPublication . Sousa, Catarina Carneiro de; Dahlsveen, HeidiThis article is a reflection on the Kromosomer project, a storytelling performance held in both physical and virtual worlds, which was implemented and disseminated through digital, virtual and social media. The aim of the whole project was to search for an expression that could combine physical experience with virtual world. The project was also looking at how to deal with social inclusion. The motto for this enterprise was the traditional Norwegian legend characters who represent “the other,” the “not-normal,” as a pretext to address the question of alterity. These legends’ characters were re-created as avatars in the metaverse, where they were also freely distributed in virtual installations as unfinished artifacts, open to mutation. In the Second Life virtual world, participants could pick up avatars and create their own stories through snapshots, machinima, etc. The physical performance later used these participants/produsers’ interpretations and narratives of the avatars in stage design and in the storytelling performance itself. We describe and analyse the main work method used for this project — a shared creative process of collective and distributed creativity. The project encompasses different forms of expression therefore we will also focus on how metaphors constitute themselves as paramount to our way of working.
- Meta_Body - um projecto artístico de construção de avatares enquanto partilha criativaPublication . Sousa, Catarina Carneiro deEste artigo descreve o projeto Meta_Body, em desenvolvimento em ambiente virtual em linha, na plataforma Second Life, e na « vida real », em diversas exposições de arte contemporânea. Aborda dois eixos estruturantes deste projecto - a constituição da corporeidade virtual e o processo criativo partilhado de construção, partilha, transformação e incorporação do avatar. Explora, também, os aspetos metafóricos da corporeidade virtual e incorporação e aborda a possibilidade de um processo criativo como uma experiência estética.
