Abstract: This study presents a differentiated approach to the Teaching Plan (PE) that can be used in any higher
education institution (HEI). The study concentrated on two institutions located in the state of Rio Grande do
Sul - Brazil and had as main justification the dissatisfaction of the students in face of the passive presentations
of the teaching plans made by the teachers. Knowing that the traditional forms of detailing the Teaching Plan
do not meet the expectations of students, the authors of this study proposed something based on active
methodologies. Thus, it seeks to awaken the student's interest in this process and especially to make this
moment more pleasurable for both the student and the teacher. In the activity proposed in this article, the
student becomes the protagonist of the explanation of this very important document in the learning process,
he actively participates in the creation of a conceptual map created with the collaboration of his colleagues
and mediated by the teacher. In order to make this possible, the present study sought to explore technologies
that provide interactivity in presential or remote classrooms. Thus, through the Coggle tool it was possible to
make classes more attractive based on the teaching plan. Then, after a few months of carrying out the activity,
students answered a questionnaire to validate their degree of satisfaction with this proposal. The result was
analysed in a qualitative way and obtained more than 90% of satisfaction on the part of the interviewees. As
a conclusion of the study, it is possible to state that the proposed activity made the process of explaining the
teaching plan more enjoyable and active for the student.
1 INTRODUCTION
It is necessary for the student to experience the online
experience in a pleasant, collaborative way and to
engage in this model. Thinking about it, the first date
can also be active. Presenting the Teaching Plan (PE)
of a discipline is extremely necessary, but it is
generally not pleasant. Many students learn in a
traditional teaching model that does not lead them to
question why the procedures are presented. Thus,
they end up being indifferent to the whole system that
a Teaching Institution (IE) considers so that the
knowledge reaches the student in the classroom.
At the beginning of each semester, particularly in
private on-campus higher education (the target of this
research), the first class has a low attendance rate,
which is believed that the classes are not attractive.
There are countless reports justifying this by the
students. However, a baseline is perceived in the
following report that supports this argument, where it
stands out: “There will be nothing important and no
activity to deliver”, in turn they do not participate in
the first class. So, it is important that, with the help of
active methodologies and technologies, innovative
education makes it possible to transform classes into
more vivid and meaningful learning experiences for
students of digital culture at all times. (BACICH and
MORAN, 2018). In addition, methods and tools are
sought to make classes more meaningful for students.
This introduces the concept of meaningful learning.
Rogers (2001, p. 01) conceptualizes it as follows:
“By meaningful learning I mean learning that is more
than an accumulation of facts. It is a learning process
that causes a change, whether in the individual's
behaviour, in the future orientation he chooses or in his
attitudes and personality. It is a penetrating learning,
which is not limited to an increase in knowledge, but
which deeply penetrates all parts of its existence”.
David Ausubel defines that in order to have
meaningful learning; there must be an interaction
between new information and a specific knowledge
structure. Ausubel considers the facilitating element
in the individual's cognitive structure to be one of the

pillars that support significant learning, in the activity
proposed in this study it is possible to identify all
these characteristics (MOREIRA, 2021).
Engagement on the part of the student and the
teacher is the central gear of all the processes that
make the learning active and meaningful. For Gandin:
“A planning process requires, when the good of all is
sought, that participation happens at every moment,
in every action.(GANDIN, 1993). Therefore, it is
very difficult to have a positive return from
something applied in a passive way. Passively, many
teachers leave their teaching plans in their Virtual
Learning Environment (VLE) and do not even detail
it with the student. This ends up causing a disruption
in the teaching process. Therefore, changes are
necessary and this article will present a successful
practice for the most significant approach to the
Teaching Plan.
The focus of the proposed activity is on detailing
the Teaching Plan actively so that the student can
understand and contribute by asking about future
improvements. Corroborating this, we seek to answer
the following problem situation: How to present the
teaching plan to students in a meaningful way?
As specific objectives, for that it will be
necessary:
1. Bring interactivity in the presentation of the
teaching plan;
2. Evidence that an active approach applied to an
exhibition process can make the student
understand better the teaching plan of a discipline;
3. Use tools based on the principle of active
methodology and technologies so that the student
works collaboratively;
4. Create an activity that the student works with what
is in the discipline's teaching plan;
5. Analyse qualitatively if students understand the
teaching plan.
In the next sections, development, methodology,
analysis of results and final considerations will be
discussed. In addition to these items, the
bibliographic references that served as a theoretical
basis for this study are also presented.
2 DEVELOPMENT
Proposing something different to present the teaching
plan is not an easy task, as it is the time to understand
the discipline. This becomes more challenging when
seeking to bring interactivity to this process. For this,
it is necessary to understand that currently
interactivity, in most cases, occurs with group
activities and with the use of some technology. The
relevance of an activity performed in the classroom is
linked to how much it arouses the student's curiosity
and interest. Therefore, the use of intuitive
technologies and tools is paramount.
In view of the various tools available on the web
to support teachers in their classes, a freeware
application for mind mapping on the web, known as
COGGLE, stands out. With it, the student can
perform the activity collaboratively, as the app allows
more than one user to edit the file in real time,
working like Google Docs. (COGGLE, 2020).
Moreover, using the Microsoft Teams environment,
students are able to discuss and perform online
activities. With the help of Moodle, Virtual Learning
Environment (VLE), the student has access to
documents, guidelines and videos related to the
activity.
As defined by Almeida and Valente (2011), it is
not enough to put the student in front of the electronic
interaction device, it is necessary to have the
mediation of the teacher, who is responsible for
assisting in defining the project's theme, clarifying the
doubts that will arise, dialogue stimulating students
and guiding them in the moments when difficulties
arise. However, at no time should the academic
protagonist be taken away. Then, to analyse the result,
with each new insertion in the mind map, the teacher
opens a moment for discussion among all students in
the class.
The student researches, reflects and analyses
possible situations for decision making with the
teacher as his facilitator (Berbel, 2011). Thus, active
education happens when the student interacts with the
activity and through Information and Communication
Technologies (ICTs) proposed by the teacher in the
proposed activity. (Rêgo and Garcia, 2020).
The methodology strategy used as the basis for
this study was the Inverted Classroom (SAI), but it is
possible to show that the characteristics of another
strategy: Project Based Learning (ABProj), which are
present in the proposed activity. SAI aims at dynamic,
interactive and creative learning. In the proposal of
this article, the student receives the activity that
requires a study prior to its execution. After
conducting the study, the groups discuss each other
and carry out the main activity, which is the creation
of the collaborative mind map. Soon the student
actively participates in the discussions and practices.
At ABProj, the project is authentic based on a
question, challenge or motivating problem. The
student will only be challenged if he understands the
meaning of the proposed challenge. Therefore, for
this study the role of the facilitator is of paramount
CSEDU 2021 - 13th International Conference on Computer Supported Education
534
importance. In addition, Project-Based Learning
involves teaching academic content and technical
skills in ongoing projects and collaborative work,
describes Borges and Alencar, 2014. The following
skills are described as acquired skills: self-
assessment, engagement, teamwork, decision-
making, time management, among others. Therefore,
it is possible to affirm that the article used a hybrid
solution without the strategies presented, because
both the characteristics of SAI, as well as ABProj are
present in it (Rêgo and Garcia, 2020).
To create an activity that the student works
with what is in the discipline's teaching plan, it is
necessary to be detailed and let the student passively
have the first contact with the document, in this first
moment it is named pre-class. Therefore, that
traditional approach to the teaching plan is in the past
and the student participates more in this moment.
In order to understand the second objective of this
study: highlight that an active approach applied to
an expository process can make the student
understand better the teaching plan of a discipline,
it is necessary to detail the proposal of the activity
performed. First, the students formed groups of four
members, being able to use the groups resource
offered by Teams for faster communication or
WhatsApp. After this definition, guidelines are given
for the use of the Coggle tool and then the teaching
plan already available in the AVA is presented so that
the student becomes familiar with the concepts and
methods presented in this document through the
mediator. So, the activity is divided into two parts: the
construction of a first mental map of the plan, taking
into account the items contained in it, such as:
assessments, skills and classes; and a second mind
map that focuses on the syllabus of the discipline.
Students will create these maps in a collaborative way
with the group's colleagues and, after finishing, share
them with the rest of the class. Then the activity of a
group is chosen and all other groups change the file
as discussed among its members and mediated by the
teacher.
Given the objective: using tools based on the
principle of active methodology and technologies
for the student to work collaboratively, the Coggle
tool was used because, among all those researched
and tested, it presented itself as the one that could best
meet the entire proposal of activity fully and
efficiently and clearly. To validate this tool, a study
was carried out in a smaller class that delighted the
students.
Section 2.1 presents the application of the
approach.
2.1 Application of the Approach
This section presents the execution of the activity.
After the division of the groups, the students debate
about the Teaching Plan and in a collaborative way,
they will build the mental map mediated by the
teacher according to the illustration presented in
Figure 1.
Figure 1: Result being discussed online.
For the final presentation, the teacher adds all
students in the class to the chosen mind map. It is
selected through the online presentations of each
group. In the final mind map, each of the added
students can make the desired changes; they are
discussed and validated by the mediator.
Figure 1 illustrates the discussion of the result
obtained in a collaborative way and the students
changing the mental map in real time. All students are
assessed individually taking into account attributes
such as class participation and group involvement.
Another important factor to be reported is that the
students had no greater difficulties because the
activity was being applied online. Therefore, it is
possible to affirm that the activity will not be
restricted only to this moment of pandemic, but also
in online and face-to-face subjects after this period of
challenges that we are going through, improving even
more a characteristic teaching process. In section 2.2
is the methodology used in the development of this
research.
2.2 Methodology
For Prodanov and Freitas (2013), the methodological
part is the phase, whose methods and processes are
defined in which they will be approached over a
problem and how the problem that was raised will be
solved.
A Proposal so That Teachers Can Work with Techniques of Active Methodologies since the Approach of the Teaching Plan
535
Then some works were studied for the creation of
the questionnaire. Moreover, it was observed that for
Parasuraman (1991), a questionnaire is just a set of
questions designed to generate the data necessary to
achieve the objectives of a research. And
corroborating this, according to Demo (2011), it is
possible to have a much larger number of questions,
however he defines that it is important not to make
the research boring to the participants, the more
objective and simplified its assembly, the better the
result. Thus, we tried not to leave the questionnaire
tiring for the student.
Thus, this element of data collection perfectly
meets one of the objectives of this article. Twelve
questions were asked, as the researcher believes that
he will have a better clarity in the answers given by
the students. It is considered a possible forgetfulness
on the part of the student since the questionnaire is
applied 9 weeks after the activity. The questionnaire
had a period of three weeks for students to answer it.
It is composed of 12 questions essential to the
proposal of this study, three of which are essays. In
the next section, the questions and the analysis made
on them are presented.
2.3 Analysis and Discussion of Results
It is important to mention that this whole scenario was
created and validated with the application in a single
class, so that the necessary corrections were made and
later applied in several classes with different student
profiles.
A qualitative analysis was made to try to
understand if the approach was significant for the
student; a questionnaire was made on Google Forms
and applied to students from two different HEIs in
Brazil. In one of them, a university centre, the activity
was carried out in two different units: one in the
capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) and the
other in the metropolitan region of the same state. The
other institution of higher education chosen was a
college also located in the metropolitan region of RS.
The subjects in which the study was carried out were
IT Management, Algorithms and Programming - NH,
Algorithms and Programming - POA and IT Quality
and Auditing. This is the target audience of this study.
For this study, there was a population of 120
students, with a sample of 38 respondents who
answered the questionnaire. This represents a
percentage of 32%, considered good compared to
other research carried out in the institutions.
However, it is evident that the student does not like to
answer questionnaires, whatever they may be.
Therefore, it is interesting that the interviewer leaves
a longer time for students to respond, but also make
time available for them to be more secure for the
student. In applying this questionnaire, two
techniques were used: three weeks to answer and one
time before classes with guidance from the teacher.
This study also sought to show whether the most
different student profiles liked the proposed activity.
Then, Table 1 presents the result for the following
question: What course are you enrolled in? There
were 38 respondents.

It is possible to show that students from the most
diverse courses answered the questionnaire. This is
very important for this research, as the target audience
is not restricted. The courses of analysis and system
development with 34.2% of the answers and civil
engineering with 28.9% were the courses that
prevailed totalling more than 60% of the answers. In
addition to these, there were also computer network
courses with 13.2%, IT management with 7.9%,
mechanical engineering with 7.9%, electrical
engineering with 5.3% and mechatronics with 2.6%.
Questions 2, 3 and 4 also seek to collect more
information about the respondent's profile in order to
show whether students with different characteristics
liked the activity or if a standard profile was
preponderant.
The second question: In which semester are you
in the course? It is presented in Table 2. She sought
to understand in which semesters the students who
answered the survey were. This information is
important because it is possible to define if the
application of the activity is restricted to one semester
or can be applied in all. So the following results were
obtained: 44.7% were in the 1st or 2nd semester,
36.8% were in the 3rd or 4th semester, 10.4% were in
the 5th or 6th semester, 5.3 were in the 7th or 8th and
only 2.6% were after the 8th semester of college.
Even with respondents in all semesters, the younger
students predominated. This becomes very relevant
when starting from the fact that if the student likes the
activity already at the beginning of his course, it will
not be a problem throughout him.

The third question addressed was: Which of the
subjects do you study that presented the teaching
plan with a practical activity? This question sought
to validate the previous question, as of the four
subjects chosen; two were from the first semester and
two from the final semesters. It is important to note
that the most common subjects, which are in the first
semesters, have a larger number of students, which
corroborates the high rate of respondents between the
first and the fourth semesters. Table 3 describes the
subjects covered in this research and their
percentages.

The fourth question, on the other hand, sought
information from the geographic region of those who
were answering the questionnaire. It should be noted
that the target audience was from both the capital and
the metropolitan region. In this context, it is known
that in the state of Rio Grande do Sul the profile of
students differs, so that it was evident that the activity
can be applied in both regions without problems, it
was necessary to collect this information. This was
done through the fourth question detailed in Table 4.
Table 4: Research regions.
Porto Alegre (capital) 31.6%
Novo Hamburgo (Metropolitan Region) 68.4%
Based on the percentages, it is possible to contact
the diversity of the target audience and that in both
regions it would be possible to apply the proposed
approach of the education plan.
After detailing and understanding the target
audience and the universe of this research, it is
important to validate whether it was satisfactory for
the student. The next questions seek to clarify this.
Question five sought information on student
satisfaction and other possible collaborative tools.
The question was: Did you like to use the Coggle
tool to build mental / conceptual maps related to
the discipline's teaching plan? It is shown in Table
5.
Table 5: Satisfaction with the tool.
Yes. 92.1%
Yes, but I use another one. 2.6%
No. 5.3%
The question showed a high level of satisfaction
with 92.1% of the interviews approving the Coggle
tool for the execution of the collaborative activity.
Only 5.3% of respondents did not like to use the
collaborative tool in the creation of the teaching plan.
Analysing this result, it is possible to infer that these
students would probably be indifferent to the
execution of the activity, as they would also have
been in the traditional approach of the teaching plan.
Therefore, it is evident that the choice of the Coggle
tool was assertive.
In this question, only one of the respondents
checked the option: yes, but used another one. So
only he answered question 5.1 (dissertation) that
complemented 5. Question 5.1 was if you answered
“yes, but I use another tool”. What are the most
relevant features of the tool used? The interviewee
stated “CmapTools. It is a free and very intuitive
tool.”
The tool mentioned by the student had already
been researched by the authors, who at the time of
analysing the tools did not consider it more intuitive
than Coggle. Even so, it was not discarded for this
reason. The main reason for not using the
“CmapTools” tool was because it was not
collaborative. After receiving the data from this
research, the authors consulted the tool's website and
found that it still does not meet the necessary criteria
for the activity proposed in this study, so it is not yet
an option.
The sixth question was: Did the activity with
mental / conceptual maps, about the teaching plan,
make you better understand the discipline's
teaching plan? In it, illustrated in Table 6, it is clear
that the teaching plan approach through active
methodologies was significant for the student. Thus,
it is possible to report that the study achieved its
purpose taking into account all the objectives, as
65.8% of the respondents marked the option much
better. Less significantly, 28.9% responded a little
better and only 5.3% were indifferent to the activity
proposed by the study. In addition, it is important to
note: it is natural for the student to be indifferent to
the activity, as he did not like to use the Coggle tool.
This student probably performed the activity only in
A Proposal so That Teachers Can Work with Techniques of Active Methodologies since the Approach of the Teaching Plan
537
order to be assessed. Therefore, the results could be
even better.
Deepening the analysis further on the 28.9% of
the students who reported a little improvement in the
understanding of the teaching plan, it is reported that
50% of the students who marked this alternative were
considered concluding their courses, so it is possible
to verify that even already well accustomed to the
traditional model, they were able to find benefits in
the new approach. As for the region of these students
who accounted for 28.9%, around 65% were from the
interior who culturally do not like changes. Moreover,
the fear of change may have helped the student with
this profile to respond a little better instead of much
better.

In order to collect more data and understand what
could be improved, the questionnaire had an essay
question to complement the answer to the indifferent
option in question 6. This question was numbered 6.1
and requested the following: if you answered
indifferently in the question 6, justify your reason.
Then it stands out: I believe it helps, but it is
independent of the tool used to present the content,
be it mind maps or a Power Point. It is not the tool
itself, but the presentation of the programmatic
content that makes the difference”. In the report,
the student's preference for the traditional approach is
evident, where he is placed as a liability.
The seventh question has its result represented by
Figure 2. It corroborated the idea that the activity was
extremely pleasurable for the students, since 92.1%
of the respondents would like this approach to the
teaching plan in other subjects. This demonstrates
that the present study was successful in applying a
different form to the traditional one for detailing the
teaching plan. Therefore, the approach of the teaching
plan using active methodologies for detailing it in
front of the student was significant.
Question 7 was: Would you like the
presentation of the teaching plan in the other
subjects to be just as active as it was in yours? For
this question, the data shown in Figure 2 were
obtained.
Figure 2: Seventh question.
Question 8 was: Did the programmatic content
of the discipline become clearer after detailing the
teaching plan through mental / conceptual maps?
Moreover, the result is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Eighth question.
The greatest relevance in the analysis of question
eight, presented by Figure 3, is not in the fact that
94.7% of respondents answered: yes, the syllabus
contents of the discipline became clearer after the
detailing of the teaching plan through mental maps,
but that in Figure 4, it was not possible to obtain the
same percentage. The percentage of 89.5% of
satisfaction, even though it is high, shows that the
teaching plan was not so well understood when
approaching assessments, skills and competences.
For 10.5% of respondents, this approach was not
clearer. In the validation study, the percentage of
students who had not found the approach in this item
to be clear was 18%, so it was necessary to triple the
sample to make sure that the item would not be a
problem in the execution of the activity. Soon it was
possible to verify that the item is not a problem, but
that it deserves special attention. Figure 4 illustrates
the results of question 9: How was the discipline
worked on the items: assessments, skills and
competence, became clearer after detailing the
teaching plan using a collaborative tool? Below is
the result of question 9.

Figure 4: Ninth question.
Finally, question ten. An optional essay question
that sought to know the students' opinion on the
explanation of the teaching plan in an active way.
There were 26 interviewees who decided to
contribute to the deepening of this research, some
even had very similar opinions, but described
differently. Here are some of these contributions:
1. “Good, simple and clear methodology”,
2. “It makes it much easier to understand /
understand the content”,
3. “Well-organized to better understand every
teaching plan.”,
4. “The didactics proposed are very good.”,
5. The use of conceptual / mental maps gives us
a clearer and more objective perception
about the subject and the teaching plan”,
6. “Mind maps help to better understand the
discipline in a more summarized and clearer
way, totally different than reading articles
and much better”,
7. “I think this teaching plan method could be
practiced in all subjects.”,
8. “Different from others and visually better”,
9. “Some doubts were clarified when doing the
activity, as all topics were separated and well
defined, making it easy to understand.”,
10. “[...] more applied students seek to research
the content in advance to have more dynamics
with the teacher in the classroom when the
subject is addressed.”,
11. “I liked making the mind map, because it is
very easy to understand the subjects, I
already used the map in chemistry classes and
it always helped me a lot.”.
The contributions from number 1 to number 4
make it clear that the students accepted the proposed
active methodology. In addition, words with: “clear”
and “understanding”, define that the study achieved
its objective with the application of active
methodologies. Today's student wants to be the
protagonist of everything that involves his learning,
but in order for his understanding and engagement to
be efficient, it is necessary to attract him.
Analysing contributions 5 and 6, it is possible to
state that the use of mental / conceptual maps was
well chosen for the execution of the activity, as it
would be possible to use another way to make the
teaching plan approach active. One of the
contributions mentioned this; however,
unfortunately, it did not suggest an alternative. The
interviewee's argument was: "I believe that the help
of any tool helps, but it does not necessarily have to
be a mental map for the objective to be achieved."
However, it is emphasized that the Coggle tool builds
mind maps collaboratively and that it is not within the
scope of the other proposal, this would affect the use
of another tool, which would make the study very
comprehensive.
Contributions 7 and 8 show the possibility of use
for all subjects of the IES, the student is again asking
for teaching to be active in all its processes.
Corroborating all the contributions, the number 11
emphasizes that another discipline, which is not part
of this study, uses mind maps in its approaches. This
is extremely positive and contributes a lot to teaching.
Therefore, it is possible to standardize the Coggle tool
for using mind maps in Higher Education Institutions.
Contributions 9 and 10 show that the teacher
performed well his role as mediator and the student's
interest in learning more by preparing in advance for
classes, the principle of the classroom inverted.
Through the questionnaire, it was possible to
identify a break in the traditional way of teaching;
students like to be protagonists of their learning at all
times. The activity developed another pleasant
moment between the students and the teacher.
In the next chapter, the conclusions obtained
through this I am and suggestions for future work will
be presented.
3 CONCLUSIONS
The approach proposed in this article sought to solve
a very specific problem in teaching. Understanding
the teaching plan is of paramount importance for the
student, but it is known that he never liked the
traditional approach. Therefore, proposing something
that was pleasurable, active, engaged the student,
helped him to see the teaching plan with different
eyes was a very complex, and challenging task.
Fortunately, the study was successful and thus leaves
a legacy for the education system: it is necessary to
do things differently and make sense of all the
processes carried out within a classroom. Without the
A Proposal so That Teachers Can Work with Techniques of Active Methodologies since the Approach of the Teaching Plan
539
engagement of the teacher and the student,
approaches such as the one carried out in this work do
not make sense. Presenting the teaching plan in a
passive way or just leaving it in the virtual learning
environment does not create a link between the
student and the education system and is not
meaningful to him.
There are no barriers to change. The study was
successful in different institutions of higher
education, located in distant regions. Moreover, it had
students from different courses, many of whom were
not even attending the same semester. Therefore, it
was possible to realize that even the interviewees
having different characteristics, they accepted the
activity very well and did not create obstacles for this
approach to be standardized in the IES targeted by the
research.
In addition to the benefits already presented and
analysed in this article, it is important to reinforce the
idea that the student increasingly needs to understand
and participate in all the processes that lead to the
content that is covered in a classroom. With activities
like the one evidenced in this scientific document, the
student understands better not only the proposal of the
discipline, but also acquires an understanding, even if
systemic, of the educational universe.
It is important for the student to remember that at
the beginning of the semester the Teaching Plan (PE)
is presented and that the skills and competences
acquired by the student had already been foreseen.
Therefore, the student can see meaning in this
process.
The work proved that it is possible to add value to
teaching through a break in the traditional model of
presenting the teaching plan. This is important so that
other procedures related to the education system try
to be more active and not mere documents.
For future work purposes, it would be interesting
to have an analysis of the teachers' perception
regarding the implementation of this approach and
that the study had an even larger sample.
