Resumo: |
The research considers the propagation of mobile phones and smartphones and the consequences of this fact on possibilities for teaching and learning. Communication apparatus have always been linked to the teaching-learning process. However, with the most intense development, in recent decades, of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), this relation has gained new contours. The Internet arises, the evolution of computing machines and, recently, the explosion of mobile devices, providing new products and converged services. In this context, mobile and smartphones have been used and recommended for support and complement of the teaching-learning process: the so-called Mobile Learning. This segment grows due to the rapid expansion and cheapening of these technologies in society. To scientifically verify this relation, a qualitative research was performed, exploratory type, with two projects of mobile learning underway in Brazil, the Palma - Literacy Mother Language Program and School with Cell Phone. So, from the data from the research, we have identified some aspects related to the use of mobile phones and smartphones for the process of teaching and learning that contribute to the understanding of this field still under construction in Brazil. The use of these devices as support for teaching and learning processes in the studied projects is outlined by aspects technology, public and context and new technologies and mobile learning. The device aspect unfolds in dimensions as dissemination, multi-functionality and accessibility support the proposals, still favor characteristics identified as important to the process of teaching and learning nowadays, as mobility and portability. The projects analyzed show potential and appropriate methodology to the context for which they were created and applied. However, the research indicated that while cellphones and smartphones represent the pinnacle of technological convergence and are considered extremely popular and accessible in contemporary society, with concrete possibilities as in the analyzed projects, failed to gain a solid position as a tool for teaching and learning. Such indication is due, according to the research, to lack of: support, practices show extremely dependent on public or private initiative for its extent and continuity; awareness for the use of available technologies, do not consider the device of the students and a plan that that includes, enables and encourages the use of these devices. Moreover, the research also highlights the need for a critical view of the use and function of technology in these processes. |
