Competência tecnológica em foco: A prática de ensino com apoio de ambientes virtuais

Abstract

This paper, a fragment of a doctorate research, aims at investigate possibilities for building collaborative approaches to / from the virtual environment, contributing to the development of teacher in training technological competence as well as the functionality of this space as a locus of reflection among teachers in training and as an educational resource for the supervised training. Complexity theory guides the investigation, together with the concept of Digital Competence (KRUMSVIK, 2008, 2011). The study has a qualitative nature, adopting the virtual ethnography principles (HINE, 2000). Data collected from online interactions among ten pre-service teachers in a course at FALE/UFMG, from the researcher's notes and from a questionnaire show, among other things, that the virtual learning environment has the necessary basis for knowledge construction, creating good space for interaction, collective construction and reflection.
