Planning and Development of the MOOC-DTS Digital Tutorial Space: Case Study in a University Tuna Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • Digital innovation is currently a hallmark of higher education institutions due to the need to remain at the forefront of technology, but also to ensure a more current, inclusive and participatory teaching–learning process. The university tunas of these institutions also seem to be an example of innovation in the digital sphere as they use digital technologies to simplify their internal processes, but also as a means of promoting and disseminating information and advertising through the web. In this follow-up, the use of technologies in the context of musical training also seems to have a preponderant role in the acquisition and improvement of skills of the members that make up these groups. Considering the interest in the combination of university tunas and technologies, this research was developed to present the planning and development processes of a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on the Udemy platform, called Digital Tutorial Space (DTS). This MOOC-DTS aims to contribute to the improvement of the individual musical quality of the tuna members through digital technologies, enabling everyone to learn anywhere and anytime, without geographical or temporal restrictions. For the accomplishment of the study, the research-action methodology was adopted in this work within the scope of RaussTuna—Tuna Mista de Bragança, from the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança, Portugal. While in the planning phase the technical-pedagogical structure and the design of the course contents were thought, in the development phase the course was built and all the contents to be inserted in the MOOC were produced.
