O uso de ambiente virtual de ensino aprendizagem na mediação das práticas pedagógicas inclusivas: contribuições para a disciplina Língua Brasileira de Sinais - Libras

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to understand the challenge of teaching by means of technological mediation, a form of gestural communication with very different characteristics of written and spoken language, which the students never had contact. Thus, this research is guided in the following question: is technology the best strategy to make more accessible to scholars? Therefore, this research begins with the observation and analysis of the contents taught in the classroom discipline LIBRAS and follow with further observation on the didactic transposition of such content to the virtual environment of teaching and learning (Avea). The paper is organized into three chapters: the first, sign language, a field of struggles, discussions and tensions, followed a path mapping pursued by sign language worldwide and in Brazil. The second, Collaborative Learning Network, addresses the collective intelligence technology and the changes in building networked knowledge. In the last chapter, LIBRAS beyond UFAM walls: new tracks to traced, we glimpse and escape route where we could contribute to the practical part of the course with the development of a video material. The research took place in the presence room and at the same time in the virtual classroom discipline LIBRAS, the Faculty of the Federal University of Amazonas - environment in which occurs the monitoring and use of technological mediation tools, then the Moodle system. This is covered under the agency of actors to build networked knowledge. For a better understanding of reality, we work with cartography as a method of intervention research, making it clear that this method is not tied to the traditional view chasing rules stipulated in advance, but as you progress through research tracks will indicate the way to go. Based on the results found we believe practical part of the education is not possible without the mediation of language technology which is the main strategy to make knowledge accessible to scholars. The emergency of new tracks still emerging from this production, indicating new ways to go.
