Blended Learning in the Physics Curriculum: analysis of a proposal: Case Study

Bol

This study analysed an educational proposal for the multimodal use of the Moodle Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) in the 'Introduction to Science' course of the Physics Degree Programme at the Federal University of Triângulo Mineiro (UFTM). Ways of using the VLE and the possibilities of using a blended learning pedagogical proposal with multimodalities were identified. In this case study, an intrinsic research methodology was used to analyse the data using qualitative approaches. The processes of designing, producing and testing three virtual classes in a face-to-face course were observed. The results were collected from: observation of student comments in the face-to-face class, semi-structured interviews with the teacher, focus groups, and analysis of activity reports carried out on Moodle. The results were analysed based on three categories: innovations related to traditional undergraduate teaching, student engagement in the study programme, and difficulties faced by teachers and students in implementing the proposal.
