Desenvolvimento e avaliação de objetos de aprendizagem para o ensino de lógica matemática

Abstract

Learning objects are an advantageous tool to be used as support in the teaching and learning process. With technology increasingly present in students’ daily lives, there is a challenge in keeping students’ attention during classes through the traditional teaching method. This fact is noticed mainly in initial subjects in computer courses, which end up involving logical reasoning, being one of the great difficulties and reasons for failure. Therefore, this work aimed to develop learning objects for initial contents of propositional logic, seen in the discipline of Mathematical Logic. The Ardora tool was used for the elaboration of learning objects, totaling the creation of 35 exercises using interactive formats to order, complete, answer, relate and mark. To show the acceptability of the objects, a TAM assessment was conducted with students and monitors of the discipline. After using the learning objects by students and monitors, we performed a quantitative and qualitative analysis regarding the usefulness, ease of use, intended use and acceptability of these objects by the Mathematical Logic class. The results of the analyzes were positive, highlighting the great acceptability on the part of the students, as well as interest in using learning objects to improve their teaching and learning not only in Mathematical Logic, but also in other disciplines of the Engineering course. Software that were made available.
