Abstract
An immersive narrative means to promote immersion of its target audience, considering three dimensions of narrative immersion: temporal, spatial and emotional. We present and demonstrate the use of a method for evaluating and classifying these dimensions in narratives, enabling reflections for their reformulation according to the pedagogical objectives of the teacher. The method was developed as an artifact of Design Science Research (DSR). It was applied empirically in Portuguese higher education, on an asynchronous e-learning course at Universidade Aberta, which uses narratives for narrative immersion and promoting self-regulation and co-regulation of learning: Software Development Laboratory. The results show that the method enables detection of differences in the level of use of the various dimensions of narrative immersion, as shown for a sample case. This analysis, beyond its usefulness for this evaluation and classification upon narratives, enables their creators (e.g. teachers and non-specialist professionals) to become aware of these situations. Therefore, it provides an overview and supports grounded reflection, inspiring interventions to reformulate the dimensions of narrative immersion that one wants to provide to the target audience.;Uma narrativa imersiva deve prover a imersão do público-alvo considerando três dimensões de imersão narrativa: temporal, espacial e emocional. Apresentamos e exemplificamos o uso de um método que avalia e classifica estas dimensões em narrativas, apoiando reflexões para a sua alteração, de acordo com os objetivos pedagógicos almejados pelo docente. O método foi desenvolvido enquanto artefacto de Design Science Research (DSR). Foi aplicado empiricamente numa unidade curricular do ensino superior português em regime de e-learning assíncrono na Universidade Aberta, que utiliza narrativas para imersão narrativa e promover a autorregulação e corregulação das aprendizagemns: Laboratório de Desenvolvimento de Software. Os resultados indicam que o método permite detectar diferenças de nível de recurso às várias dimensões de imersão narrativa, como ocorreu no caso apresentado. Esta análise, além de permitir esta avaliação e classificação em narrativas, dá aos seus criadores (e.g., professores e profissionais não especialistas) consciência destas situações ao longo da narrativa. Possibilita, desta forma, uma visão global e uma reflexão fundamentada, que pode inspirar intervenções para reformular as dimensões de imersão narrativa a proporcionar ao público-alvo.

Abstract
As atividades assíncronas no ensino online requerem um acompanhamento regular por parte dos docentes. Esse acompanhamento acompanha duas dimensões: a de grupo, atendendo às dinâmicas globais da turma; e a individual, atendendo às ações de cada estudante. Estando habitualmente estruturadas em tópicos com duração limitada no tempo, a preponderância destas dimensões altera-se nas necessidades de dedicação e intervenção docente. Neste trabalho apresenta-se uma estratégia de apoio à planificação e desenvolvimento da atividade docente, que decompõe essas atividades de acompanhamento e intervenção em cinco marcos temporais. Pretende esta estratégia permitir ao docente identificar os aspetos mais prementes para recolha, de forma praticável, de elementos que possam informar a sua decisão de intervenção pedagógica.

Abstract
The emergence of accessible virtual reality headsets in the past decade multiplied educational uses of immersive virtual reality. Higher education, in particular, has seen many such reports emerge. However, there are scarce frameworks for higher education professionals to plan and deploy immersive virtual reality within their pedagogical practice. To attain a perspective on this field, we conducted a systematic literature review using SCOPUS search, focusing on Instructional Design Models for Immersive Virtual Reality in online Higher Education. This review aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of these models, their respective phases, and distinctive characteristics. The review identified two categories of Instructional Design Models for Immersive Virtual Reality in Higher Education: 1) Models specific to such contexts, with aspects such as managing immersion time or providing prior contact with the immersive environment; 2) Models developed for other contexts and adapted to immersive virtual reality, addressing aspects such as the importance of creating objectives, assessment elements, or defining resource purpose. We conclude that current instructional models used for immersive virtual reality in higher education lack the combination of the overall pedagogical concerns with the specific ones for immersive virtual reality. Thus, we recommend further research to develop instruction models that combine both aspects of learning design concerns.

Abstract
The proper integration of technology in teaching and learning processes must consider the role of teachers and students, as well as the design of tasks and the context in which they are implemented. Teachers' perceived self-efficacy significantly influences their willingness to integrate educational robotics (ER) into their practice, so initial teacher training should provide opportunities for teachers to participate in structured activities that integrate ER. In this study, a class of pre-service teachers from an initial teacher training programme were provided with their first contact with an ER platform through the use of a simulator. We present the design process of a student exploration guide and teacher guide, developed over three iterative cycles of implementation, assessment and redesign. The analysis of the data collected allowed for improvements in the design of the tasks, the graphic component of the student exploration guide, and more precise indications for the teacher's actions. The main contribution of this study is the chain orchestration between the simulator, student exploration guide and teacher guide, which allowed pre-service teachers to solve a set of challenges of increasing complexity, thereby progressively decreasing their difficulties and contributing to an adequate integration of ER in their future teaching practices.

Abstract
The Internet revolution in 1990, followed by the data-driven and information revolution, has transformed the world as we know it. Nowadays, what seam to be 10 to 20 years ago, a science fiction idea (i.e., machines dominating the world) is seen as possible. This revolution also brought a need for new regulatory practices where user trust and artificial Intelligence (AI) discourse has a central role. This work aims to clarify some misconceptions about user trust in AI discourse and fight the tendency to design vulnerable interactions that lead to further breaches of trust, both real and perceived. Findings illustrate the lack of clarity in understanding user trust and its effects on computer science, especially in measuring user trust characteristics. It argues for clarifying those notions to avoid possible trust gaps and misinterpretations in AI adoption and appropriation.

Abstract
There are several educational software (ES) used in the classroom environment for the teaching and learning of geometric contents that are part of the Portuguese basic education mathematics program. There are studies that show that the use of this type of artifact has a fundamental role in the behavior of students, raising, among other aspects, a greater motivation for learning mathematics. The aim of this work is to explore and describe implications for the behavior and learning of students in the 7th grade of Portuguese basic education, in face of a pedagogical practice that involves carrying out tasks using ES Plickers, in the theme similarities of the domain geometry and measurement, throughout intervention carried out. The adopted methodology presents characteristics of a quasi-experimental study. The participants were 61 students from three classes of a school in the north of Portugal, followed during eight consecutive classes. A set of tasks using Plickers, tests and a questionnaire survey were used as instruments for data collection. The results point to positive increments, at a behavioral level, as well as in the evolution of learning, in view of the use of this methodology in the classroom.
