PROJBL : uma ferramenta web para auxílio ao aprendizado baseado em projetos

Abstract

The information age we are, as a result of technological evolution, has modified some socialaspects, among them the way of learning and teaching. Teachers are no longer unique in holding and interpreting knowledge because information can be obtained in different ways, always within reach. These factors have led to how best to teach and learn in this new context. Project-based learning (ProjBL) was highlighted as an alternative for giving the learner the opportunity to develop their knowledge by seeking information for problem solving. Our work seeks to develop an application that adds project management techniques to aid learning, managing deadlines and resources so that learners have a better knowledge development and tutors a better follow up of this process. To develop this tool, we extracted features that added requirements through research in related works. This included a systematic review of articles, review of market products and a questionnaire to gather opinions from the target audience. In the development, the most pertinent characteristics served for the survey of the requirements, diagrams and schedule. The types of tests, quality control were also defined. As a result, a web-based tool was developed to aid project-based learning and validated with stakeholders.
