Resumo: | Aiming to characterize the way Portuguese Public Higher Education Institutions use Communication Technologies (CTs), the on-going project at University of Aveiro TRACER will apply a national online survey, therefore developing a prior pilot-study undertaken with validation purposes. This paper describes and summarizes part of the work developed within the pilot-survey, which includes a theoretical review outlining the context of CTs use and its impact on teacher training. First results of the pilot-study, which included four institutions, will be used to present institutional perspectives about CT use. The responses cannot be generalized as wide-reaching statements, but they already reveal that higher education institutions are making an effort to bring together policies and practices. Also, there seems to be a common awareness and concern about teacher training in this area, although training main topics and modalities seem to vary significantly. Results show that despite the uneven spread of responses about the existence of a formal political strategy concerning CT, there is an institutional investment (currently and foreseen in a near future) on CTs, namely on teacher training for CTs use. |

En este artículo se describe y resume el trabajo realizado en el estudio piloto, incluyendo una revisión de la literatura que fija las condiciones para el uso de la TC y su impacto en la formación del profesorado. Los primeros resultados del estudio piloto, incluyen cuatro instituciones representan el punto de vista institucional sobre el uso de la TC. Las respuestas no se pueden generalizar, sino que revelan los esfuerzos de las instituciones de educación superior para cumplir con las políticas y las prácticas. Por otra parte, no parece haber una conciencia común y la preocupación por la formación del profesorado en este ámbito, a pesar de que los principales temas y modalidades de la formación varía considerablemente. Los resultados muestran que pese la desigual distribución de las respuestas en la existencia de una estrategia política formal sobre el uso e integración de TC, hay una inversión institucional (y actualmente planeado en un futuro cercano) en la TC, sobre todo en la formación del profesorado para su uso.Com o objetivo de caracterizar o uso das Tecnologias de Comunicação (TC) pelas instituições de Ensino Superior Público Português, o projeto em curso, TRACER, na Universidade de Aveiro irá aplicar um questionário online a nível nacional, validade por um estudo-piloto realizado. Este artigo descreve e resume o trabalho desenvolvido no âmbito do estudo-piloto, incluindo uma revisão teórica que define o contexto de uso das TC e seu impacto na formação de professores. Os primeiros resultados do estudo-piloto incluem quatro instituições para representar a perspetiva institucional sobre o uso das TC. As respostas não podem ser generalizados, mas revelam o esforço das instituições de Ensino Superior, para reunir políticas e práticas. Além disso, parece haver uma consciência e preocupações comuns com a formação de professores nesta área, embora as modalidades e temas principais da formação variem significativamente. Os resultados mostram que, apesar da distribuição desigual de respostas sobre a existência de uma estratégia política formal sobre uso e integração das TC, há um investimento institucional (atualmente e previsto num futuro próximo) em TC, nomeadamente na formação de professores para o seu uso.Centro de Investigação Didática e Tecnologia na Formação de Formadores (CIDTFF) / Universidade de Aveiro2013-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/id.v5i4.4284https://doi.org/10.34624/id.v5i4.4284Indagatio Didactica; Vol 5 No 4 (2013); 74-95Indagatio Didactica; Vol. 5 Núm. 4 (2013); 74-95Indagatio Didactica; Vol. 5 No 4 (2013); 74-95Indagatio Didactica; vol. 5 n.º 4 (2013); 74-951647-3582reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/id/article/view/4284https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/id/article/view/4284/3220Pinto, MartaNogueira, FernandaCoelho, DalilaBalula, AnaMoreira, Antónioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-09-22T10:16:09Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/4284Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:30:07.211490Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
