Ambiente hipermidiático web 2.0: potencial educativo, fluxo virtual e redesenho de metarrelações

Abstract

The educational setting based on cooperation and collaboration is emerging with the support of new technologies and tools. Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) and new Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are systems based on information technology that make possible both the emerging virtual flows of knowledge and the new trends for pedagogical approaches. The Web 2.0 consists of a multiple hypermedia space, capable of breaking the linearity and unidirectional characteristic of most communication processes, offering possibilities for dynamic educational structure scenarios. Considering that, this research aimed to provide (a) an overview of scientific research published by the Scientific Electronic Library Online, specifically about the thematic proposed for this study, (b) and identify trends allowed by the platform for the Web 2.0 approaches. By doing so, this investigation consists of a literature review, an integrative review, and a descriptive and exploratory, in which was used the technique of content analysis to relate sociological and semantic structures, in order to entrust consistency to the analysis. The corpus of analysis corresponded to ten articles selected according to pre-defined criteria of inclusion. As a result, it is evident the importance of knowing about the hypermedia spaces allowed by the Web 2.0 platform, while augmenting the stimulating teaching strategies for learners in a possible new educational paradigm.
