Abstract—This article deals with a case study in which a
digital learning object (DLO) was developed to assist in the
pedagogical practice in higher education (audiovisual area).
The main results obtained were the excellent conceptual
evaluation received by the DLO tool; as well as great concepts
received in evaluations that refer to relevance, differentiation,
credibility, and intention to use (among other metrics). In
addition, a blind analysis also showed that there was no
qualitative difference between the practical work developed
with or without the aid of the tool (due to a potential gain of
time that could be perceived and enjoyed for the execution of
the activities performed, due to an automation process offered
by the tool).
The final conclusions pointed to a positive indication of the
use of DLOs in teaching practice in higher education, as the
digital tool was very well received by students during classes
and helped to review and reinforce the learning content taught.
Thus, the study reinforces the research developed in the area of
education on the effectiveness of the use of technologies in
supporting pedagogical activities, besides adding another
experiment related to mixed digital learning. However, it
stresses that collaborative research can lead to a further
analysis of the pedagogical contributions of DLOs.
