Details about the lecture:
The lecture will address socio-affective aspects in virtual learning environments. The first part of the lecture will be an explanation of the importance of studying the socio-affective aspects in education, focusing on virtual learning environments and more specifically on the environment used at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, which is ROODA. They have developed two functionalities in it, the Affective Map and the Social Map. The affective map is a tool that graphically presents students' moods (dis)motivation and (dis)satisfaction. The social map aims to present the relationships that are formed in the environment, based on the display of sociograms. The lecture will also address the concept of recommendation and how pedagogical strategies aimed at professors are recommended based on the maps.
The socio-affective competences in distance education will then be explained. Finally, the work of our research group and its results will be presented:
1) Pedagogical Strategy Recommendation Model Based on Socio-Affective Aspects; 2) Socio-Affective Combination Model, 3) Socio-Affective Model based on Learning Analytics for the ROODA Virtual Learning Environment and 4) Socio-Affective Competences Map.
