Nowadays, online or distance learning postgraduate schools program the academic period in different sequentially developed modules. This article assesses the impact of the programming of short-term university courses (30-60 days) on the frequency and quality of interaction when communication takes place through mobile technologies. Frequency corresponded to the messages generated by actors in learning environments, and quality was quantified using a scale of interaction levels operated by assessing the content of the messages issued by the actors. Results revealed that there is no correlation between interaction and academic performance in short-term courses. Additionally, a downward trend was observed in the number of individuals involved and in the frequency and quality of interaction throughout the course.
如今,在线或远程学习的研究生院校将学术期规划为不同的、依次展开的模块。本文评估了短期大学课程(30 - 60天)的规划对通过移动技术进行交流时互动频率和质量的影响。频率对应于学习环境中参与者产生的消息,质量则通过评估参与者发出的消息内容所使用的互动水平量表进行量化。结果显示,短期课程中的互动与学业成绩之间没有相关性。此外,在整个课程中,参与的人数以及互动的频率和质量均呈现出下降趋势。
