Humanistic learner-centred curriculum approaches that use new technologies are vital
as a response to a world dominated by grand challenges such as the COVID-19. This
article examines the value of fun in distance education to promote student success
and retention. Although the experience of fun is part of human nature, research in
this area is sparse. This mixed methods study, informed by Responsible Research and
Innovation (RRI) and open data, focused on 206 students including teachers, consultants
and education professionals. The results indicated that 91% of participants valued
fun in online learning; highlighting well-being, motivation and performance. However,
17% believed that fun within learning could take the focus off their studies and result
in distraction or loss of time. This article introduces the new concept of emancipatory
fun and offers some educational recommendations.
[Portuguese Abstract - Abordagens curriculares mais humanistas centradas no aprendiz
com tecnologias são vitais como uma resposta para o mundo dominado por grandes desafios,
tais como a COVID-19. Este artigo examina o valor da diversão na Educação a Distância
visando promover o sucesso dos estudantes e reduzir a evasão. Embora a experiência
da diversão seja parte da natureza humana, pesquisas nessa área são escassas. Este
estudo de métodos mistos apoiado pela Pesquisa e Inovação Responsáveis (RRI) e dados
abertos focou 206 estudantes, incluindo professores, consultores e profissionais da
educação. Os resultados indicaram que 91% dos participantes valorizaram a aprendizagem
on-line divertida, destacando bem-estar, motivação e desempenho. Entretanto, 17% acreditaram
que a diversão na aprendizagem poderia tirar o foco dos estudos, resultando em distração
ou perda de tempo. Este artigo introduz o novo conceito de diversão emancipatória
e oferece algumas recomendações.] |
