Abstract(s)
Com a constante evolução tecnológica, as escolas portuguesas têm vindo a transitar progressivamente
dos manuais escolares em papel para versões digitais. Esta transição exige
uma crescente adaptação dos alunos ao uso de ferramentas tecnológicas no seu processo
de aprendizagem. No entanto, esta transição nem sempre é acompanhada por soluções
eficazes que respondam Ć s necessidades especĆficas de cada estudante, tornando essencial
o desenvolvimento de plataformas que promovam a personalização do ensino.
Neste enquadramento, o presente projeto teve como objetivo principal investigar de que
forma um sistema de recomendação personalizado pode apoiar e facilitar o processo de
aprendizagem no contexto do ensino escolar. Para tal, procedeu-se à realização de uma
revisão do estado da arte sobre sistemas de recomendação aplicados ao ensino. Adicionalmente,
procurou-se explorar o potencial dos Large Language Models (LLMs) em contextos
educativos e analisar criticamente as plataformas educacionais existentes.
A metodologia adotada envolveu uma abordagem exploratória, sustentada por pesquisa bibliogrÔfica
em bases cientĆficas. Na seleção dos artigos, consideraram-se como critĆ©rios
critérios a atualidade, a relevância e o foco na aplicação de sistemas de recomendação em
contextos educacionais.
No âmbito do projeto, foi desenvolvida uma plataforma educacional que disponibiliza conteúdos
educativos, integrando um sistema de recomendação personalizado, um assistente
virtual de apoio ao estudo entre outras funcionalidades complementares.
Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que a plataforma desenvolvida foi bem recebida pelos
participantes. Estes utilizadores beneficiaram de recomendações personalizadas de conteúdo
e de um assistente virtual capaz de apoiar o estudo atravƩs de comandos personalizados. A
anÔlise das métricas indicou um bom desempenho do sistema de recomendação, revelando
a sua capacidade de adaptação aos interesses e dificuldades dos estudantes.
Conclui-se que uma plataforma educacional gratuita, equipada com funcionalidades inteligentes
e personalizadas, pode representar uma mais-valia significativa no apoio ao ensino
digital. Com base nos dados recolhidos, foram ainda implementadas melhorias e adicionadas
novas funcionalidades, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento de futuras soluções tecnológicas
mais eficazes e centradas no aluno.
With the constant technological evolution, Portuguese schools have been progressively transitioning from paper textbooks to digital versions. This transition requires increasing adaptation from students to the use of technological tools in their learning process. However, this transition is not always accompanied by effective solutions that respond to the specific needs of each student, making it essential to develop platforms that promote personalized teaching. In this context, the main objective of this project was to investigate how a personalized recommendation system can support and facilitate the learning process in the school education context. To this end, a state-of-the-art review on recommendation systems applied to education was conducted. Additionally, the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) in educational contexts was explored and existing educational platforms were critically analyzed. The adopted methodology involved an exploratory approach, supported by bibliographic research in scientific databases. In the selection of articles, the criteria considered were timeliness, relevance, and focus on the application of recommendation systems in educational contexts. Within the scope of the project, an educational platform was developed that provides educational content, integrating a personalized recommendation system, a virtual study support assistant, and other complementary functionalities. The results obtained demonstrated that the developed platform was well received by the participants. These users benefited from personalized content recommendations and a virtual assistant capable of supporting study through personalized commands. The analysis of metrics indicated good performance of the recommendation system, revealing its ability to adapt to studentsā interests and difficulties. It is concluded that a free educational platform, equipped with intelligent and personalized functionalities, can represent a significant added value in supporting digital education. Based on the collected data, improvements were implemented and new functionalities were added, contributing to the development of more effective and student-centered future technological solutions.
