  • #ECAPACITAR – A path towards an innovative and tailored elearning solution in a hei
    Publication . Loureiro, Ana; Rocha, Dina; Santos Silva, Perpétua
    The paper showcases the methodology used to design a project in a HEI in the field of distance education. #eCapacitar is a capacity building project for digital inclusion in IPSantarém's core areas. The project is ongoing and it has 3 main axes that will develop and implement the following infrastructure: a CRM platform, an eLearning solution and a Digital Knowledge Database. The main focus of the paper will be the aspects related with an innovative and tailored eLearning solution. Although the institution is already carrying out some training offers based on eLearning, it’s lacking a more sustainable, grounded and systematic infrastructure. Only with high quality standards HEI can be competitive and face the upcoming challenges, able to respond to the needs of a 21st century citizen. The training offer must prepare students in order to develop competencies such as the transformative, digital, soft and emotional ones. We have to think not only about the technology behind it but also cherish the conceptual learning model that supports the distance education solution, whose reasoning and design will result from the phase of planning currently in development.
  • Active ageing – Enhancing digital literacies in elderly citizens
    Publication . Loureiro, Ana; Barbas, Maria Potes
    Being digital and information literate is crucial in nowadays society, although not every citizen has the necessary means and resources to achieve these skills, especially the elderly ones. Therefore it is necessary to develop ways to help them to enhance their digital and information competences. In this paper we will present an ongoing project that was designed and implemented with the goal to provide elderly citizens with the necessary skills of a networked society, contributing for an active ageing. The methods used were based on a set of hands on workshops delivered by a team of voluntary students and teacher, with the help of collaborators from a nursing home. The workshops were developed accordingly with the detected needs of a group of elderly citizens, based on the answers of an implemented questionnaire.
  • 2nd International Congress on 21st Century Literacies: book of abstracts
    Publication . Loureiro, Ana (ed.lit.); Rocha, Dina (ed.lit.); Messias, Inês (ed.lit.); Oliveira, Nuno Ricardo (ed.lit.); Lopes, Rui (ed.lit.)
    The 2nd International Congress on 21st Century Literacies (ICCL2022) intends to promote literacy in different areas of knowledge as part of the right to education, as well as a foundation for individuals’ empowerment and inclusive development in low density and cross-borders territories, allowing a greater literacy of these populations, thus contributing to a positive differentiation of these territories. The ICCL2022 will provide an opportunity to rethink the fundamental importance of literacy as a booster to the development and integration of these populations in the challenges of the coming decades. Several themes will be addressed, namely: digital, financial, environmental, quantitative, scientific, and emotional literacies, as well as literacy in the fields of health and management, STEM, reading and libraries, cinema, media, education, and arts, but not limited to. The meeting will provide a forum for discussion and debate of ideas with interest to the scientific community in general. With this meeting new scientific collaborations among colleagues, namely new collaborations in master’s and PhD projects are expected.

  • Student’s digital transformation during higher education: entrance and exit digital profile
    Publication . Messias, Inês; Loureiro, Ana
    Digital technology has entered almost all areas of our daily lives to the point that we call our own society the Digital one. In the last 2 years with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, that has forced most of us to work from our homes, connecting online, this aspect of growing more digital has accelerated. This transition to remote work reminded us, once more, of the need to empower students with the required digital skills, or e-skills, to enter the labour market that “demands highly skilled people” [1], to perform lifelong learning, and to help answering the call of the European Commission’s Digital Compass targets of developing digital competences until 2030. This paper is the first part of an ongoing research that aims to understand the Higher Education (HE) Students’ Digital Profile when they enter HE, and then assess if their existing digital profile is correspondent to the labour market´s ideal profile when they finish their studies. This research also and foremost aims to design a research model for Student’s Digital Profile, providing us with the opportunity to assess this on a yearly basis, to the students that enter HE and the ones that are finishing their studies, helping Higher Education Institutions perceive if their studies’ syllabus are adequate to empower students with the needed workforce digital competences each specific field of expertise requires. As this study is correspondent to the first part of this research, this paper will focus on the literature review and research methodology that will lead us to our first results.
  • Aprendizagem híbrida: b-learning - da sala de aula ao ciberespaço
    Publication . Loureiro, Ana; Barbas, Maria Potes
    O presente artigo, Aprendizagem híbrida: b-Learning – da sala de aula ao ciberespaço, pretende apresentar os resultados de uma investigação que teve como finalidade a criação e a avaliação do impacto de um módulo on-line, como complemento às aprendizagens em regime presencial, no desenvolvimento e aquisição de competências, transversais e específicas, em alunos do primeiro ano do ensino superior politécnico, no domínio das tecnologias da informação e comunicação, mais especificamente no módulo que dizia respeito à linguagem HTML. Não foi nossa intenção, neste estudo, explorar, de forma aprofundada, conceitos tecnológicos inerentes ao e- Learning, mas antes perceber de que forma este paradigma de ensino-aprendizagem poderá beneficiar os alunos na aquisição e aperfeiçoamento de determinadas competências. - The main objective of the present study, Hybrid Learning: b-learning – from the classroom to cyberspace, was to create and evaluate the impact of an on-line training module as a complement to traditional lectures. This module contributed to the development and acquisition of specific and transversal competences in Information and Communication Technologies. We intend to verify the improvement in HTML language, on the competence level, of those students who attend the first year, second semester subject multimedia of a degree in the area of cultural animation lectured at a Superior School of Education. It was not our intention, in this study, to explore inherent technological concepts to e-Learning, but to recognize how this paradigm of teach-learning will be able to benefit students in the acquisition and development of determined skills.
  • Digital open educational resources: teachers’ perceptions of the pedagogical implications
    Publication . Messias, Inês; Loureiro, Ana
    The educational paradigm has been changing, impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, that made witness the field’s strengths, weaknesses, and lack of readiness making the transition from traditional classroom teaching to Online Remote Teaching and Learning (ORTL). While pre-pandemic studies state that teachers were willing to change, post-pandemic studies still show that teachers have a basic or medium level of digital competencies, still feeling insecure about how to effectively and efficiently use digital tools in their educational practices. The study presented here is being conducted at a Portuguese Higher Education Institution, to students of a master’s degree in Digital Education Resources, after they were trained in the development and implementation of digital Open Educational Resources (OER). This paper presents preliminary findings concerning teachers’ perceptions about the pedagogical implications of using OER after having received specific training on how to prepare, adapt, create, and implement them. This study methodology consisted of the application of questionnaires, at the end of the unit on Digital Educational Resources. The results are preliminary, concerning the first implementation of the questionnaires. Our goal is to consistently apply them, to gain a better understanding of the knowledge gained over the course, and positive and negative implications on their pedagogical experience.

  • Ciência Aberta e Ciência Cidadã no IPSantarém: responsabilidade social na investigação
    Publication . Rocha, Dina; Loureiro, Ana
    Enquanto instituição de ensino superior, o IPSantarém tem na sua missão, a investigação orientada, com ligação à comunidade, através da sua envolvência e transferência de conhecimento. Neste sentido, e acompanhando a estratégia europeia e políticas nacionais, no que diz respeito à Ciência Aberta, estão a ser definidas estratégias e metodologias para a sua implementação, tendo sido criado para o efeito o GICA_IPSantarém (Grupo de trabalho de implementação Ciência Aberta). O seu objetivo principal é a implementação do novo paradigma de ciência e de investigação definida no conceito de Ciência Aberta, definida na Resolução do Conselho de Ministros n.º 21/2016 como, “(...) assunção de uma política científica comprometida com um paradigma de partilha do conhecimento, de aproximação da ciência à sociedade, envolvendo as suas diversas componentes na formulação de agendas de investigação, em processos colaborativos e participativos de investigação, na procura de respostas conjuntas aos desafios e problemas que se lhe colocam”. Esta nova abordagem permite uma proximidade ao cidadão e a inserção da responsabilidade social da instituição integrada no processo investigativo, tal com é definido no Plano de Ciência Aberta definido pelo MCTES “(…) como um dos pilares decisivos para a sua concretização, por reconhecer que a confiança, a transparência e a relevância da ciência aumentam quando realizada em relação com a sociedade e, sobretudo, pela capacidade de estimular o envolvimento como forma de aproximar comunidades, criando ambientes propícios à inovação social, científica, económica e cultural” Pretende-se apresentar a estratégia e metodologia que permite a difusão e promoção da Ciência Cidadã, integrada no GICA_IPSantarém, cumprindo os princípios expressos pela European Citizen Science Association – ECSA. Partilhar algumas iniciativas programadas para a integração da Ciência Cidadã no IPSantarém, através da Política de Ciência Aberta, das orientações da Responsabilidade Social da instituição é também encontrar o caminho para o cumprimento dos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável 2030, contribuindo para um mundo, em que governos e cidadãos acabem com a pobreza, protejam o meio ambiente e pugnem pela qualidade de vida de todos.
