Desenvolvimento de um Multi-Organizador Flexível de Espaços Virtuais Manaus.

Abstract

Work and learning built individually and in groups took a new and definitive impulse from popularization of software tools that currently compose web-based virtual environments. After a time of reckoning and appropriation of these resources, work, teaching, learning and social relations started to demand that virtual environments cannot yet answer, partially due to need of conformation by some of these environments to certain functional aspects maintained mainly by tradition. A possible strategy to deal with this problem is to devise and to develop flexible environments to support cooperative activities, given users a better balance between supporting tools and goals and profiles of participants in a specific activity. This work is part of a multi-institutional effort on the area where, from conceptual elements defining an innovative and simple approach to development of virtual environments, it is reported the organization, modeling and implementation of an instance of this kind of environment. The resulting prototype, currently in use at UFAM, was built using Moodle as development and evaluation platform.
