Abstract

AARON, Marlin A.. Use of the Smile Platform for the Development of Concepts in Students in Repeat in an Engineering Program. Inf. tecnol. [online]. 2019, vol.30, n.2, pp.265-274. ISSN 0718-0764.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-07642019000200265.

The aim of this work is to explicitly describe the process implemented during teaching and learning through a didactic characterized by investigation, the permanent accompaniment and the participative dialogue with students of the first semester of the Systems Engineering Program, repeaters of the Subject Introduction to Engineering of Systems. The idea is approaching students to experience a blended learning methodology supported by the Smile Platform and achieve the generation of concepts during the construction of essential questions derived from these contents. The experience is methodologically framed by the Action Participation Research, a qualitative-quantitative study in which statistics are used to recognize the changes in the elaboration of questions. Students are able to exercise higher order thinking skills from managing of information, analyzing and thinking with information and constructing questions and answers using Smile. The highest level of critical thinking was achieved in the evaluation of the questions elaborated by classmates.

Keywords : Smile platform; inquiry strategy; higher order skills; construction of questions; taxonomy..
