AMBCON: virtual learning environment connected to smart technologies for student monitoring
AMBCON: ambiente virtual de aprendizagem conectado às tecnologias inteligentes para monitoramento do aprendiz
Palavras-chave:
Distance learning, Virtual learning environment, Learning evaluation, Smart technologiesResumo
This work aims to develop and validate a software architecture that allows the integration of the virtual learning environment with smart technologies that monitor the learner’s concentration in front of learning objects. This is applied research, of an experimental nature, exploratory, qualitative, bibliographic, laboratory, longitudinal, retrospective and prospective approach. Research carried out on scientific work databases found the existence of smart technologies that allow monitoring of a learner, using only the equipment’s camera. It was also found that there are virtual learning environment platforms that support distance learning. However, no proposals for architectures that allow the operationalization of these connections were found. In this context, an architecture called AMBCON (Connection Environment) was developed that interfaces between a virtual learning environment and an environment containing smart technologies that monitor learners. The AMBCON architecture was validated by performing a proof of concept.
