Resumo: | Virtual courses are educational alternatives that contribute to the permanent training of professionals. Achieving adequate engagement allows raising motivation, commitment, responsibility, and positive emotions towards the achievement of learning objectives and goals. Due to the current confinement conditions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is essential to achieve, as much as possible, an engagement in the virtual courses. The objective of this study is to determine if the redesign of the virtual course "Introduction to the evaluation of the usability of computer systems", offered at the Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas, favors higher levels of engagement in the current confinement conditions. A quasi-experiment was designed with a control group and an experimental group. Statistical tests confirm higher levels of engagement within the subjects of the experimental group. It is concluded based on the educational experiences obtained that the characteristics that should be promoted in the virtual courses offered in the current time of the pandemic are (1) applied engagement factor: design of digital educational resources and relevant materials for professional life and application of what has been learned; (2) Goal-oriented engagement factor: integration between the organizational psychological climate and professional motivation, and collaborative activities; and (3) Self-disciplined engagement factor and interactive engagement: challenging learning content, synchronous and asynchronous activities, and interactive sessions through Telegram. |

Lograr un adecuado engagement permite elevar la motivación, compromiso, responsabilidad y emociones positivas hacia el logro de los objetivos y metas de aprendizaje. Debido a las actuales condiciones de confinamiento provocado por la pandemia Covid-19 es imprescindible lograr un engagement en los cursos virtuales. Este estudio tiene como objetivo determinar si el rediseño del curso virtual “Introducción a la evaluación de la usabilidad de sistemas informáticos” ofertado en la Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas propicia mayores niveles de engagement en las actuales condiciones de confinamiento. Se diseñó un cuasi-experimento con un grupo de control y uno experimental. Las pruebas estadísticas confirman mayores niveles de engagement en los sujetos del grupo experimental. Se concluye basado en las experiencias educativas obtenidas que, las características a potenciar en los cursos virtuales ofertados en el actual tiempo de pandemia para elevar el engagement son: (1) factor engagement aplicado: diseño de recursos educativos digitales y materiales relevantes para la vida profesional y, aplicación de lo aprendido; (2) Factor engagement orientado a objetivos: integración entre el clima psicológico organizacional y la motivación profesional y, actividades colaborativas; y (3) Factor engagement autodisciplinado y el engagement interactivo: contenidos “desafiantes” de aprendizaje, actividades sincrónicas y asincrónica y, sesiones interactivas a través de Telegram.Os cursos a distância são alternativas educacionais que contribuem para a formação permanente dos profissionais. Alcançar um engajamento adequado permite aumentar a motivação, o comprometimento, a responsabilidade e as emoções positivas em relação ao cumprimento dos objetivos e metas de aprendizagem. Devido às atuais condições de confinamento causadas pela pandemia Covid-19, é essencial conseguir o envolvimento em cursos virtuais. O objetivo deste estudo é determinar se o redesenho do curso virtual "Introdução à avaliação da usabilidade de sistemas computacionais", oferecido pela Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas, favorece níveis mais elevados de engajamento nas atuais condições de confinamento. Um quase-experimento foi projetado com um grupo de controle e um grupo experimental. Os testes estatísticos confirmam níveis mais elevados de engajamento nos sujeitos do grupo experimental. Conclui-se com base nas experiências educacionais obtidas que as características a serem promovidas nos cursos a distância oferecidos no momento atual da pandemia para aumentar o engajamento são: (1) fator de engajamento aplicado: desenho de recursos educacionais digitais e materiais relevantes para a vida profissional e aplicação do que foi aprendido; (2) Fator de engajamento orientado a metas: integração entre o clima psicológico organizacional e a motivação profissional e atividades colaborativas; e (3) Fator de engajamento autodisciplinado e engajamento interativo: conteúdo de aprendizagem "desafiador", atividades síncronas, e assíncronas e sessões interativas por meio do Telegram.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2021-05-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/textolivre/article/view/3393610.35699/1983-3652.2021.33936Texto Livre; Vol. 14 No. 2 (2021): Tecnología educativa para la agenda 2030: Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) ante la pandemia; e33936Texto Livre; Vol. 14 Núm. 2 (2021): Tecnología educativa para la agenda 2030: Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) ante la pandemia; e33936Texto Livre; Vol. 14 No 2 (2021): Tecnología educativa para la agenda 2030: Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) ante la pandemia; e33936Texto Livre; v. 14 n. 2 (2021): Tecnología educativa para la agenda 2030: Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) ante la pandemia; e339361983-3652reponame:Texto livreinstname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGspahttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/textolivre/article/view/33936/27169Copyright (c) 2021 Texto Livre: Linguagem e Tecnologiahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEstrada Molina, Odiel Fuentes Cancell, Dieter Reynaldo García Hernández, Alién 2022-03-24T10:40:40Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/33936Revistahttp://www.periodicos.letras.ufmg.br/index.php/textolivrePUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/textolivre/oairevistatextolivre@letras.ufmg.br1983-36521983-3652opendoar:2022-03-24T10:40:40Texto livre - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false |

Virtual courses are educational alternatives that contribute to the permanent training of professionals. Achieving adequate engagement allows raising motivation, commitment, responsibility, and positive emotions towards the achievement of learning objectives and goals. Due to the current confinement conditions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, it is essential to achieve, as much as possible, an engagement in the virtual courses. The objective of this study is to determine if the redesign of the virtual course "Introduction to the evaluation of the usability of computer systems", offered at the Universidad de las Ciencias Informáticas, favors higher levels of engagement in the current confinement conditions. A quasi-experiment was designed with a control group and an experimental group. Statistical tests confirm higher levels of engagement within the subjects of the experimental group. It is concluded based on the educational experiences obtained that the characteristics that should be promoted in the virtual courses offered in the current time of the pandemic are (1) applied engagement factor: design of digital educational resources and relevant materials for professional life and application of what has been learned; (2) Goal-oriented engagement factor: integration between the organizational psychological climate and professional motivation, and collaborative activities; and (3) Self-disciplined engagement factor and interactive engagement: challenging learning content, synchronous and asynchronous activities, and interactive sessions through Telegram. |
