    Estudo Comparativo entre Laboratórios Remotos e Simuladores
    (IEEE, 2017-12-31) Varela Branco, M.; Aparecida Coelho, L.; Alves, Gustavo R.
    Os laboratórios remotos são ferramentas ágeis e acessíveis, proporcionando maior acesso aos alunos através do conceito de Educação 4.0. O uso destes laboratórios sugere o desenvolvimento da capacidade analítica dos usuários, apresentando resultados reais com influências externas como térmica, elétrica, magnética ou eletromagnética e ainda as não idealidades relacionadas aos aspectos construtivos de componentes eletrônicos. Assim, este capítulo propõe explorar o potencial dos laboratórios remotos realizando experimentações práticas reais no laboratório remoto VISIR em comparação a simulações no PSIM e PROTEUS, verificando as diferenças entre as plataformas

    (IEEE, 2017-12-31) Kulesza, W. J.; Gustavsson, I.; Marques, M. A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Fidalgo, A. V.; Hernandez-Jayo, U.; Garcia-Zubia, J.; Kreiter, C.; Oros, R.; Pester, A.; Garbi Zutin, D.; Auer, M. E.; Garcia-Hernandez, C.; Tavío Gallo, R.; Savela, M.; Garcia Loro, F.; Macho Aroca, A.; San Cristobal Ruiz, E.; Díaz, G.
    Este documento describe cómo un nuevo proyecto Erasmus+, PILAR (Plataform Integration of Laboratories base don the Architecture of visiR), está siendo desarrollado y cómo la puesta en marcha del partenariado y del proyecto está reforzando la red VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) y el Grupo de Interés Especial de VISIR bajo el Consorcio de Laboratorios online (GOLC - Global Online Laboratory Consortium) de la Asociación Internacional de Ingeniería Online (IAOE - International Association of Online Engineering. La Universidad Española para la Educación a Distancia (UNED) coordina este proyecto que tiene como objetivo federar los sistemas existentes (o nuevos) con el fin de utilizar los recursos de manera más efectiva y eficiente, haciendo transparente para el usuario final la elección de los recursos compartidos

    21st Century Challenges in Engineering and Technological learning
    (ACM, 2017-10-18) Viegas, C.; Marques, A.; Alves, Gustavo R.
    The success of 21st century engineers1 depends on demanding challenges, involving a large scope of scientific and social competences. College education must help students to develop those competences in collaborative environments and better address these needs. Developing students’ knowledge and skills in contextualized engineering environments, practicing teamwork, leadership, decision-making, experimental work and critical thinking are some of the important aspects addressed in this track.

    Do Students Really Understand the Difference Between Simulation and Remote Labs?
    (ACM, 2017-10-18) Lima, N.; Viegas, C.; Zannin, M.; Marques, A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Felgueiras, M. C.; Costa, R.; Fidalgo, A.; Marchisio, S.; Lerro, F.; Merendino, C.; da Silva, J. B.; Pozzo, M. I.; Dobboletta, E.; Gustavsson, I.; Nilsson, K.; García-Peñalvo, F. J.
    Laboratory experiments play a crucial role in engineering education as they strongly contribute to the development of important skills for the professional practice. This paper addresses a students’ understanding gap between simulations and remote labs. These two resources (and namely the remote laboratory VISIR - Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality) have been commonly used on several didactical implementations, along with other didactical resources in different Engineering degrees at the Federal University of Santa Catarina and Polytechnic of Porto School of Engineering. This work, developed in the scope of the VISIR+ Project, intends to evaluate students’ perceptions considering simulation and remote lab results. Quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed to better understand how deeply students realize the differences between these resources and their type of data. Preliminary results indicate that a considerable number of student’s don´t have a clear idea of these differences, even though sometimes they know their definition. Furthermore, this gap does not seem to differ much with the context (country, course, academic year, course content), students’ final grades, teacher approach or implemented tasks.

    The VISIR+ Project – Helping Contextualize Math in an Engineering Course
    (IEEE, 2017-06-06) Lima, N.; Zannin, M.; Viegas, C.; Marques, A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Felgueiras, M. C.; Costa, R.; Fidalgo, A.; da Silva, J. B.; Pozzo, M. I.; Dobboletta, E.; Gustavsson, I.; García-Peñalvo, F. J.
    The long-term goal of engineering education is to prepare students to work as engineers. Being a practical profession, laboratories play a crucial role in illustrating concepts and principles as well as improving technical skills. In the last decades the use of online resources (simulators and remote labs) has been growing, either as a complementary and/or as an alternative way of developing experimental competences. In the scope of the VISIR+ Project, this work presents the first results of a didactical implementation using simultaneously the remote laboratory VISIR (Virtual Instrument Systems in Reality), simulation and calculus in a Math Course at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC). The preliminary results indicate that the use of several resources increases students’ performance, boosting their learning and competence development.

    Enhancing informal learning recognition through TRAILER project

Á.; García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.; Zangrando, Valentina; García-Holgado, Alicia; Seoane Pardo, Antonio M.; Alier Forment, Marc; Galanis, Nikolas; Griffiths, Dai; Johnson, Mark; Janssen, Jose; Brouns, Francis; Vogten, Hubert; Finders, Anton; Sloep, Peter; Marques, Maria Arcelina; Viegas, Maria C.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Waszkiewicz, Elwira; Mykowska, Aleksandra; Minovic, Miroslav; Milovanovic, Milos
    The evolution of new technology and its increasing use, has for some years been making the existence of informal learning more and more transparent, especially among young and older adults in both Higher Education and workplace contexts. However, the nature of formal and non-formal, coursebased, approaches to learning has made it hard to accommodate these informal processes satisfactorily. The project aims to facilitate first the identification by the learner (as the last responsible of the learning process), and then the recognition by the institution, in dialogue with the learner, of this learning. To do so a methodology and a technological framework to support it have been implemented. This project have been tested in several context and it is possible to say that an informal learning dialogue between learners and people in chargé of the institutions is possible

    Managing Informal Learning in professional contexts: the learner’s perspective
    (2013-09-24) Marques, Maria Arcelina; Viegas, Maria C.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Zangrando, Valentina; Galanis, Nikolas; Janssen, Jose; Waszkiewicz, Elwira; Conde-González, M. Á.; García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.
    Informal Learning is present in everyone's life but its awareness only recently has been reported. The need to keep track of the knowledge acquired this way is increasing as its sources diversity also increases. This work presents the pilots trials on the use of a tool developed to help keeping track of the learners’ informal learning, within a number of companies spread out in three countries. This tool developed through the European Commission funded project TRAILER, is still under development, which will allow integrating the set of improving suggestions obtained from users during the piloting phase. The overall idea of managing one’s informal learning was well accepted and welcomed, which validated the emerging need for a tool with this purpose.
