O uso do Moodle: relatos de alunos de contábeis

Abstract

The objective of this research was to understand how they are used on Digital Information and Communication Technologies, available in Moodle, in the course of Accounting of a higher education institution in Brazil. Given the understanding that further studies are required to demonstrate experience with this virtual learning environment in different educational institutions. The methodology adopted was the thematic oral history, for it were conducted semi-structured interviews with six students researched the course, it is also the qualitative type. The results of the narratives show that Moodle is used as a teachers' materials repository for students. The use of forums and chats are weak and hence the interactions and communications between student-student and student-teacher is well. Proper use of digital technologies can provide cooperative learning, so there is an opportune field to be explored in the researched course, but we need to rethink existing practices.
