- To establish the
Amazonian InfoWay for Distance Education and Health which is a network for
multimedia information and communication,
- To improve the quality
of Distance Education and Health in the Federal Public Universities of the
Amazonian Region for a wide range of purposes.
- To build a Regional
Backbone for the interconnection of the six participanting universities
with broadband Internet and videoconferencing;
- To build a State
Backbone for interconnection of campuses, as connecting each university
state-wide with broadband Internet and videoconferencing;
- To build Multimedia
Resource Centres (MRC) for producing distance education courses which will
be distributed among all participanting university campuses;
- To set up the Amazonian
CampusNet - the Virtual Campus of the Amazonian universities;
- To set up a Virtual
Campus in each university participating in this project;
- To enable local and
regional resource and information sharing;
- To create extension
courses, undergraduate and graduate courses in the modality of distance
education to fulfil local and regional needs;
- To accomplish activities
to fulfil the potential of distance education and tele-health as
legitimate and necessary modalities and as complementary strategies.
Technological
transformations and their integration in the teaching and learning process are
shifting educational paradigms significantly at all educational levels,
creating new learning environments, influencing organizational reforms as
combining these environments and integrated learning facilities. In other
words, our plan is to effectively leverage new trends centred on the enrichment
and improvement of curricula and learning institutions. Referring specifically
to integrated support services, the New Information and Communication
Technologies (N-ICT) enables teacher and student interconnection at all
educational levels - from basic education to higher education, even with
outreach programs tied to corporations and communities, offering a wide variety
of relevant information and expertise for all possible communications and
conducting public affairs. It is clearly a way to enhance infrastructure access
and learning opportunities.
For this
reason, when we consider an online teaching model supported by the utilization
of different technological possibilities to meet with the expectations and
demands of Amazonian communities, we have to first address issues such as the
following:
a) the availability of IT to the
regional inhabitants;
b) the curricular structure of the courses; and finally,
c) the individual student characteristics and the new relation they assume with
technological learning resources.
For Jesus
Salinas (1999), the possibilities offered by the new technologies, namely the
telematics networks for a learning infrastructure, enable an increasing number
of students to be characterized as users with a new relation to knowledge, with
new learning practices and with easier adaptation to rapid social transformations.
To realize this, technological and pedagogical reforms are needed, those which
can facilitate customized learning and online cooperative learning, enabling
more interaction and knowledge exchange. Thus the Federal Public Universities
of northern Brazil, as higher educational institutions, accountable to the
region's needs, are searching for answers to the social demands for high
educational standards, to constantly progress, look not for conventional
alternatives but instead envision the forerunner of a macro-project to enable
sustainable development in the Region.
Some
intrinsic and practical issues, in meeting needs and anticipating obstacles,
are as follows:
A clear
distinction pertains between efforts to build educational delivery systems and
the production of contents to be taught. For the former the role of high
technology must be investigated, a task not always easy because it demands
expertise. For the latter the educational responsibility of the universities
must be preserved. The teachers of each class are responsible for the
educational contents, as experts in their specialized fields. For the
technologies to be used as a means of delivery, online educational and health
professionals, experts in software, hardware, methods, languages and in several
online tools are to be responsible. The former must exercise the care and
wisdom required by education, while the latter has to tune in to the rapid
transformations imposed by informatics and telecommunications. An equilibrated
division of labor would neither trample on education nor delay its
technological progress.
From the
above characterization, the possibility of producting instructional means in a
centralized way arises, with specialized persons and with top technological
resources, to be used in a decentralized way by many people, in many places,
and at many times. The creation and development of courses built in advance
(pre-produced) could be combined with a wide diversity of means and resources
such as: supplementary reviews, additional books, educational radio and
television via open or closed circuit, movies, computers and especially
networks that can transmit multimedia data, video textbooks, communication by
means of telephone, radio and satellite, broadband Internet, and so on, just in
time.
The
suitable integration of these means is called the "multimedia
approach." The logic of these courses is characterized by a centralized
production combined with a decentralization of its apprenticeship. Along
similar lines, the possible production of self-instruction courses arises, by
means of elaboration of resources for independent study, with clear objectives,
a self-evaluation process, exercises and complementary texts. These resources
may become self-sufficient and become a framework for the study of a set of
other texts, encouraging observational capacity, critical thinking, and
pluralism of ideas, especially valuable dimensions of university studies.
Individual study should not exclusively characterize this teaching mode, but
learning to learn constitutes a foundation especially important for distance
education, driving it through to successful application.
Therefore
the Federal Universities of Acre, Amapa, Amazonas, Para, Rondonia and Roraima,
concerned to offer good educational services, responding to the needs of the
above described demands, and attending to the actual work marketplace, present
this project: the Multimedia InfoWay for the Development of Distance
Education and Health by Amazonian Universities, and construction of Multimedia
Resource Centres (MRC) for Distance Education with a view to the sustainable
development of the Amazon region.
The
technological infrastructure will be made available by means of communication
and Internet networks, and dedicated personnel, by enhancing and structuring
programs, developing, producing and publishing educational resources in printed
format, digital format, audio-visual and multimedia formats for effective
functioning of the Amazonian CampusNet (Virtual Campus of the Amazonian Universities).
This will support the on-campus courses in the first phase, and in a second
phase will enable the availability and management of extension courses,
undergraduate and graduate distance education, supporting the teaching and
learning process, enhancing its activity, making it more stimulating and
autonomous, increasing the study opportunities in the group of Amazonian member
States in a significant way, and consequently in all of Latin American
coountries.
The
project's proposal brings together the qualities of several IT and multimedia
communication approaches, broadband Internet and videoconferencing, intending
the construction of a powerful distance education and health supporting tool.
The plan
is to implement a Multimedia Resource Centres (MRC) network for Distance
Education on the campuses of the participating universities. The units
localized in the campus of each institution will be responsible for the
production of electronic publications and printed publications to be used in
the courses and programs of the Virtual Campus. The other units, in the back
country of each state will be responsible for the distribution and transmission
of the contents. All these units will be connected together by a
telecommunications network, structured in each state by a backbone responsible
for the connection of back country centers to the main campus of each
university and a regional backbone, responsible for the connection to all the
universities. The MRC units will be the points of presence to provide access to
the system in each area.
6. Multimedia Resource Centres (MRC)
for Distance Education
Even
though that the Multimedia Resource Centres (MRC) characterize the strong
presence of technological components and these fundamentally hinge on
Telematics connections and other resources offered by N-ICT, we will use a
concept that is in our environment since long ago: the concept of Scholar
Resource Centres as a starting point to help understand the structure and
determine the functions of a MRC. This way we must admit a revision of this
term, mainly when we introduce concepts associated with integration of the
N-ICT, multimedia, collaborative work, flexible and distance learning.
Bezswick
(1972) defined resource centres as an organized and indexed collection of
resources for consulting proposes, but without availability for production.
Merrill and Drob (1977) also made a definition for this theme; they affirmed
that the Resource Centres for learning needed to somehow make available all
that is necessary for creation, distribution and transmission of contents for
presentations of individual or group interest, of audio, video television and
printed resources; by a team of people to help the teacher in creation,
presentation, and evaluation of the course contents. These authors define MRC
for learning as a organizational structure constituted by a director and his
staff with the respective equipment, a team of specialized people with production
expertise, to search for and present instructional contents, to promote
development and planning of the services entailed in the curriculum and faculty
of a university campus.
Vidorreta
(1978) referenced three characteristics in his point of view to definitively
understand a Resource Centre:
a) It is a learning place for the students, useful to
enable students to follow an autonomous program and of independent study, or
even to develop a program in groups whether guided or not by the professor.
b) For professors, the resource centre makes available all the
contents and equipment necessary to their class preparation and to apply in
their own context.
c) It is a place to store
contents and equipment duly registered and catalogued, a place to use
contents and didactic equipment, because it offers suitable facilities.
A
definition that can concatenate these three features would be: a learning place
to find the educational contents to be used inside or outside the MRC, for
teachers and students, individually or in groups.
Dunnett
(1985) proposed that MRC go beyond managing and making available technological
resources to also be a Curriculum Control Centre, which would administrate
curricula, similar to the managerial control of the institution. Among the functions
of this Control Centre would be the rationalization of resources, including a
connection of the institution with the surrounding society.
Up to the
nineties we find definitions like that from Wang (1994), supporting Merrill
(1977), McPheeters (1980) and Langhoff (1980), concluding that MRC must be a
field, single or not, where each individual student or group of students may
find a wide diversity of resources and therefore learn by themselves. Cabero
(1999) understands that these centres must be like institutions created to make
new technologies available to teachers and students. He points out that these
must not centralize their activities only on maintenance, and the obligations
of service, but truly expand their functions, developing activities in resources
selection, evaluation of programs and research on new technologies. This way,
the MRC is an organism that has a basic physical and technological flow
sequence, specialized staff, and makes available diverse services in the
learning institution. Among its most important activities can be mentioned
those related to programs management, ownership of courses and/or licensing
agreements, from the production to the distribution of courses, whether
face-to-face, online or mixed, the availability of diverse learning resources
and, finally, to advise projects and provide tutorial services.
As a
consequence of the above, we may say that the most important performance of a
MRC is basically to surmount space and time limitations. That is, the
availability of educational resources for autonomous learning based on the use
of N-ICT must facilitate access for all those people with some connection to
the in-person centres but with difficulty in relying on regular meeting times,
moreover to be available for those that do not have the necessary equipment in
order to access the most advanced resources, enabling users to take advantage
of and use the resources that otherwise would not be accessible. In this sense,
for reference we will use what Vidorreta (1978) pointed out as the function of
a school resource centre:
- Organization of the
center's own resources and coordination of the community resources
according to space and time, professors and students, keeping an objective
eye on the solvency or profitability of the resources. It implies among
other things the establishment of different spaces for different learning
activities, keeping contents and suitable equipment in good working
conditions for utilization, the presence of specialized people and suitable
installations, mechanisms of use and borrowing, distribution and
circulation of the resources.
- Enrollment,
classification cataloguing and organization of the resources;
- Selection of the
resources according to the needs and characteristics of the centre and of
the users;
- Evaluation of used
resources;
- Information on existing
resources, guides and advice for the utilization and educational yield of
teachers and students.
Authors
such as Wang (1994), Merril (1977), McPheeters (1980) and Langhoff (1980)
defend a different nomenclature; they see this organism as a Centre of
Educational Resources to perform the following:
- To offer instructional
resources;
- To facilitate
utilization of the suitable resources for different learning environments;
- To find an efficient and
effective organization to offer real services, not only in the
self-service ambit.
Therefore
a MRC must have the technologies necessary to inform, for formal education, to
research and build didactics contents to attend the specific educational needs
on the intended context to be installed.
As
mentioned before, the MRC unit at the main campus of each university will be
responsible for management, production and distribution of the contents to be
used in the courses. Additionally, it will be responsible to provide access for
the campuses in the back country to the network. On the other hand, the units
in the back country centers will be points of presence on the network,
appropriate to distribute as well as to consume the contents produced at the
main campus. Therefore, the configurations of the MRC units for the main
campuses will be different from the configurations of the MRC units in the back
country areas.
The MRC units at the main campuses of the universities will be
configured with equipment, software, telecommunication resources, meeting
space, and specialized staff, grouped through the departments, divisions and
laboratories:
Administration of the Centre
- General
Centre Coordination - responsible for the administration
of activities development at the MRC, representation in councils, and so
on.
- Project
Coordinator - responsible for the execution of
each project.
- Marketing
Coordinator - responsible for institutional
image and outreach MRC service sales administration.
Department of Production of Educational Contents and Multimedia.
This department will develop its activities by means of four divisions
and the audio-visual laboratory.
- Design
Division - responsible for the development of the virtual
campus corporation image and the identity of the materials to be
transmitted in the courses, whether virtual or not.
- Structuring
Division - responsible for structuring, organization and
content selection to be used in the courses.
- Programming
and Multimedia Production Division -
responsible for integration of elements and multimedia resource contents
available in the courses.
- Normalization
Division - responsible for the structure of procedures and
methods of printed contents, also responsible for the translation of the
contents to other languages.
- Audiovisual
Laboratory - responsible for the production of graphic
animation in 3D, recording and video editing, production and editing of
sound tracks.
Department of Resource Distribution
This department will coordinate two divisions:
- Videoconferencing
and Telerooms - responsible for videoconferencing
rooms and for the programing of teleroom and moreover to keep equipment in
perfect operating condition, including to guide teacher and student use of
the resources, with the objective of creating an orientation course to
improve the utilization of the videoconferencing and telerooms, and
finally to always keep up with emergent technologies in order to apply
advances to the system. This will be of fundamental importance in order to
keep the MRC services efficient and within the desired quality standards.
- Users'
Attendance Division - this division will be responsible
to keep the user and system interaction dynamic, must be always in
attendance and available to help with any technical or pedagogical problem
including to help in program configuration, and with services like e-mail.
In this division will be included Room Coordination for users and the
Media Library - the first responsible for user's room management. It will
be responsible to organize the daily activities of room occupation,
including to maintain the programs up to date and to keep the work
stations perfectly functioning. The media coordination will be responsible
to organize all the reference of the MRC and of its offered services in
electronic, video, audio or printed format. In this sense he will be
responsible for creation and maintenance of a virtual library, i.e., will
be responsible for the research, index and to digitize all information on
Amazonian, research results, review articles, special publications,
congress annals, books, and so on.
Network Management Department
- State
Backbone Management - responsible for perfect connection
among the universities of the north.
- Regional
Backbone Management - responsible for perfect connection
operation among the campuses of each university.
- Local
Network Management - responsible for perfect operation
of local networks.
Research and Development Department
This department will operate as an initiatives catalyst organized in
agreed-forms involving government, academy and industry. Its objective is the
development of technologies for implementation of networks with higher speeds
compared with commercial webs, enabling experimental services, usually
restricted to the research community. By this way, its purpose will be to
perform a vanguard role, closer to test bed than to normal service.

7. Amazonian CampusNet -
Virtual Campus of the Amazonian Universities
The Amazonian CampusNet will be the Virtual Campus formed by the virtual
campuses of the universities participating in this project (CampusNet Acre,
CampusNet Amapa, CampusNet Amazonas, CampusNet Para, CampusNet Rondonia and
CampusNet Roraima), and will have at first the objective to give
pedagogical support for extension, undergraduate and graduate courses which are
regularly recognized, authorized and maintained by each university. In a second
phase, these courses will be made available in online modality and are planned
to include modernization courses for companies and general professionals that
have geographical or other difficulties in attending in-person courses.
In this sense, the Virtual Campus of each university will be the
communication interface for the MRC and of the InfoWay with the final users.
Additionally, there will be resources to expand access opportunities to
education in the university for a representative number of students able to
follow their studies and also those who want only to be refreshed and
competitive in their work strategies. Consequently it will reduce significantly
the differences among demand for and availability of background job skills in
our region, creating new educational and learning formats and finally
generating new jobs and new services.
7.1 Objectives of the Amazonian CampusNet
- To give
pedagogical support for undergraduate and graduate in-person courses,
authorized and recognized by the Federal Public Amazonian Universities;
- To expand
access to university courses by means of flexible educational systems and
online through N-ICT use, to those students with access difficulties to
high educational centres.
- To overcome
geographical distance, social and economic barriers to high education
access.
- To make
available a variety of modernization and expertise courses, using
resources offered through the N-ICT.
- Registered
students in regular courses of each participating university in this
project.
- People
interested in access to learning resources based in N-ICT.
- Companies
and professional people needing modernization, new capabilities, and
continuing education.
- Demands from
those able to enter higher education but who have difficulty accessing
higher education centres and need a more open methodology that is flexible
and individualized.
7.3 Methodology to Be Developed for the Amazonian CampusNet
General aspects
The methodology will be mixed, with in-person sections, distance
education, and a mixture of the two.
For in-person courses, the utilization of telematics resources will be under
the course coordination responsibility and/or under the professor of each
subject, responsible for the dynamic work development, with or without
utilizing an electronic platform; all courses will in any case have
communication tools available as for example conversation, forum, distribution
lists and e-mail.
For online courses, in-person sections will be used to meet the students
in order to present research work and/or products of independent study arising
from the events they registered for, such as congresses, seminars, journeys,
workshops, and so on.
Flexibility: the available online education courses,
especially those of extension will be characterized by their flexibility and
modular structure. This would facilitate the user to manage his or her apprenticeship
time and select the contents of special interest. Limited by what is possible,
the study programs will be structured with the objective not to waste time
studying already studied contents. On the other hand, whenever the student
wants, he or she may return at any moment to expand and to get deeper
knowledge.
Communication and Cooperation Tools: As the idea is
to favour access to higher education and to continuing education to those who
can not attend in-person classes, the focus will be centred on CMC - Computer
Mediated Communication - and videoconferencing. In this sense Amazonian
CampusNet will make synchronous and asynchronous tools available, with the
objective to reach the highest inter-activity among student/teacher,
student/student and teacher/teacher.
The contents will be contextualized to individual and
shared activities whenever possible, with the objective of reaching interaction
between student/technology and among students by means of online tools
(discussion forums, shared work spaces). The student's collaborative work
skills will be evaluated in some courses, the work itself corrected by means of
shared spaces (WebCT and BCSW).
Student assistance: Each student will be advised by a tutor,
both constantly connected, either by synchronous or asynchronous communication
tools during at least one hour, programmed in advance.
8. Activities for MRC
Implementation - Chronology
8.1 Infrastructure and Technological Framework Construction
The buildings will be designed for implementation of structured computer
networks, telephone (analog/digital) and electric nets. After buildings and
rooms are constructed, equipment and telecommunication resources will be
installed. For this we propose the following activity chronology:
8.1.1 Building Construction in Main Campuses and Back Country Centers
All the buildings will be constructed according to the plan, and
previous description, comprehending electric and telephone structured cable
networks. The buildings must be designed with all technical characteristics
already foreseen in the architectural project.
8.2 Construction of Feasible Connections Among Main Campuses and Back
Country Centers
After the buildings are constructed, a telecommunications company will be
hired to make a physical line available to connect the campuses, to install and
configure the necessary equipment to enable the data transit operation among
the campuses, including the complete lease of all telecommunication services to
be used by the MRC. A network manager and two technicians will be necessary to
be hired at this time to accompany the installation process and equipment
configuration.
8.2.1 Server Installation and Configuration
The servers will be set up on the racks.
The first server to be mounted is the PROXY. It will
connect Internet by the RNP, MRC's Backbone and the local servers of the back
country centers. Linux should be installed with Squid service accessing the
complete Backbone. By means of a notebook with a net plate, all Internet access
tests will be possible in all nodes (Itacoatiara, Manacapuru, Coari, Parintins,
Humaita, Benjamin Constant, Sao Gabriel da Cachoeira, Labrea and Eirunepe).
The next server to be mounted is the one that will
host the course pages. Linux with Apache will be installed (including
programming languages module as PHP3 and also the module to access the data
bank) and the course management program WebCT. For testing purposes, the most
recent pages in the FUA server will be transferred to the CampusNet and a pilot
course will be made available again for testing access by all Backbone network
nodes.
Next will be the file Server and Data Bank which will
also contain Linux as the operating system and will have Samba installed to
share files. A test user will be created in this server and the file system
will be tested from some other node. A data bank will be installed and tested
just on the server, generating a testing data set. After its installation a page
with a code (for example in PHP3) will be created, able to access the data
bank. This page will be accessed from another node of the net for the tests
conclusion.
The last server will make dial-up service available,
or ADSL and e-mail. It will also use the Linux operational system. This server
will give e-mail accounts to students and professors involved in the courses.
Whether to close the access accounts after the courses finished will be an
issue. It will be important to at least back up the educational content in the
server before deleting accounts. To perform tests on the new system, some
e-mail accounts must be created and tested by the Backbone. After these tests,
some Web Mail server accessing the Internet should be installed and also tested
by means of the Backbone.
8.3 Work Station Installation in Laboratories and MRC Rooms
After the installation of the servers, the network will already be
enabling the basic resources for starting some activities. But for this the
laboratories should be installed to make working machines available. After
configuration of those machines, a test operation will be necessary in order to
verify if these machines are processing data correctly to take advantage of all
Web-based technologies, and can be printed out.
8.4 Videoconference Systems Installation and Configuration
After the labs are installed, the videoconference rooms should be made
available. The cameras, sound system, document camera and other equipment of
this room should be installed and configured according to the manufacturer's
instructions followed by tests. The videoconference system should be installed
and tested throughout the campuses. These installations will be supervised by
the general and support technicians.
8.5 Equipment General Test, Net Traffic, Internet Access and
Videoconference
All people involved with the installation and with the coming
administration of these resources, including professors of promising online courses
should test the equipment, checking for configuration problems on the Backbone.
Any problem found should be notified to the Backbone network manager to provide
a solution.
9. Daily Activities
The daily activities of the MRC and of the Virtual Campus will be
organized as described below:
- The
department of pedagogical production - The
activities to be developed by this department will be transmitted through
the Virtual Campus. Activities to mention are structuring, program
development, html editing, text correction and translation, development of
audiovisual resources and those for the audiovisual laboratory. In this
nucleus will be present educators, designers, translators, audio visual
technicians, programmers and multimedia specialists.
- Nucleus of
Resources Distribution - The activities of this nucleus
will be concentrated mainly in the MRC provision of resources,
consequently responsible for a perfect videoconference operating system,
including the telerooms. To attend to the users, the Nucleus will be
responsible for resource distribution and advice to users. The users'
rooms and media library are also included to this Nucleus' responsibility.
With this way, all these activities will be organized by means of: (a) one
user's advisory division which will be responsible to turn interaction of
system and user dynamic, watching and available to help solve any
technical-pedagogical problem, including program configuration, e-mail,
etc.; (b) one coordinator of users' rooms responsible for daily room
occupation organization, maintaining programs up-to-date and work stations
in perfect operating condition; (c) one media library coordinator -
responsible to organize all MRC consultation contents and offer services
in electronic format, in video, audio and print. This includes creation
and updating of a university virtual library, responsible for research,
indexing and digitalization of all information regarding the region in
terms of research results, review articles, specialized review
publications, congress annals, books and so on.
- Network
Nucleus - This nucleus will be the MRC's soul; all the
activities related to online education at the Amazon universities with
campus connections will be under the responsibility of this nucleus. Therefore
the daily activities will be organized by two managers: a Local Network
Manager and a State Backbone Manager. Each of the campuses will
have a local network manager, all subordinate to the Backbone Manager.
- Nucleus
(Research and Development) - This nucleus will be
operating as an initiative catalyst organized by agreements, with
partnerships involving government, academy and industry, with technology
development objectives, directed to implement networks with higher speeds
compared to commercial providers, enabling experimental services, usually
restricted to the research community. Therefore it will act as a leader,
more as test bed than as a "normal service".
We presume this infrastructure will
become highly transparent for students and professors in order to provide a
great interaction among the several network nodes so that it will be an
infrastructure that really supports advanced online courses.
