This thesis aims to show how the use of audiovisual resources, such as digital cameras, handheld devices and multiplayer tools available in a hypermedia environment for Distance Education (EAD), can help build communication and networking skills in a context Digital Inclusion. These funds were used for the process of interaction and knowledge production by a Virtual Learning Community (VLC) in training. This VLC, called Re@ge - Network Virtual Agents - instantiated in the distance education environment Tidia-Ae/Sakai was comprised of researchers, physicians, community health agents, physical educator, nurses and other people linked to public spaces Access Technologies Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the municipality of Pedreira, the state of São Paulo (Brazil). Thus, we created collaborative learning situations where the users/learners take ownership of the procedures, strategies and resources to gather, discuss and generate multimediatic content. The contents collected were shared, discussed and reworked by the participants in the virtual community and then distributed to the population through different media. The methodology for this research was action research and data collected through questionnaires, interviews and participant observation, were qualitatively analyzed with the assistance of software for Hierarchical Classification Implicative and Cohesive (CHIC). The analysis of data compiled explained how the use of audiovisual aids and hypermedia tools available, combined with capacity building strategies used, allowed the different forms of expression (text, audio, video and photo), the establishment of communication and the construction of knowledge among participants of the VLC. Based on the results was impossible to understand the potential and limits of available resources so that their use might be able to boost the interaction process, overcoming the limitations of training in the traditional and expanding learning opportunities (AU) | |
