Objetos de Aprendizagem Multimodais

O objetivo principal deste livro é promover uma discussão na qual alunos, professores, pesquisadores e pessoas interessadas na área da educação, treinamento e formação de pessoas, possam trocar conhecimentos e experiências relacionados aos Objetos de Aprendizagem Multimodais (OAMs). A construção de OAMs implica em saber criar unidades de informações multimídia e apresentá-las de forma didática, explorando os canais de comunicação verbal e não verbal, na busca de aumentar a interação entre professor e aluno. As pesquisas envolvendo os OAMs têm demonstrado impactos positivos nos sistemas de informação voltados à Educação. Se, por um lado, o progresso em redes sem fio, sensores e dispositivos móveis têm permitido aumentar a ubiquidade dos OAMs, por outro lado, as novas técnicas de interfaces adaptativas e métodos colaborativos promovem melhorias no processo de ensino e aprendizagem.
