Neste artigo, propomo-nos a apresentar um horizonte teórico e uma pedagogia da Aprendizagem Colaborativa Online que permite o desenvolvimento de uma Inteligência Humana Aumentada, em oposição à ameaça representada pelo crescimento da Inteligência Artificial e de seu uso na educação. Para tanto, apresentamos o conceito de Educação Online, seu contexto histórico, teórico, epistemológico, tecnológico e suas perspectivas pedagógicas para afirmar a necessidade de canalizar o poder da educação online para aumentar a atuação humana e a sabedoria coletiva. Palavras-chave: Educação online. Aprendizagem colaborativa online. Inteligência artificial. Inteligência humana aumentada. AbSTRACT In order to understand the con...

Flexible Learning in an Information Society

The chapter provides a theoretical framework, a methodology, and a set of tools for understanding and assessing online collaborative learning and conceptual change. Online collaborative learning (OCL), it is argued, provides hitherto unprecedented qualities for implementing, supporting, and assessing individual and group intellectual progress. The chapter focuses especially on the unique opportunities whereby instructors, educators, researchers, and students can analyze and assess learning (conceptual change) in OCL environments and applications: that is, online discussion that progresses from divergent (brainstorming) to convergent (conclusive statements) in such educational activities as group seminars, discussions, debates, case analyses, and/or team projects. Examples of OCL applications...

The International Handbook of Virtual Learning Environments

The International Handbook of Virtual Learning Environments was developed to explore Virtual Learning Environments (VLE's), and their relationships with digital, in real life and virtual worlds. Three issues are explored and used as organizers for The Handbook. First, a distinction is made between virtual learning and learning virtually. Second, since the focus is on learning, an educational framework is developed as a means of bringing coherence to the available literature. Third, learning is defined broadly as a process of knowledge creation for transforming experience to reflect different facets of "the curriculum of life". To reflect these issues The Handbook is divided into four sections: Foundations of Virtual Learning Environments; Schooling, Professional Learning and Knowledge Management; Out-of-School Learning Environments; and Challenges for Virtual Learning Environments. A variety of chapters representing different academic and professional fields are included. These chapters cover topics ranging from philosophical perspectives, historical, sociological, political and educational analyses, case studies from practical and research settings, as well as several provocative 'classics' originally published in other settings.
