Desenvolvimento de um aplicativo multiplataforma para auxílio ao acesso e distribuição de conteúdos escolares

Abstract

It has been noted that the advances of mobile technologies in all areas, including education, in particular distance learning, have become increasingly notorious. Following these advances, there is also a growing number of users who access the internet through mobile devices, even in areas where access to education is scarce. Thus, the present work consists in the development of a multiplatform mobile application, supporting Android and iOS devices, for the access and distribution of school content in the cloud. With the objective of helping both teachers and students in the learning process, this work explores both the use of Information and Communication Technologies in the school environment through mobile learning and the tools used for the development of the project, such as the Flutter framework, used for the multiplatform development of the application, and the Firebase services, for the authentication of users through Firebase Authentication and for the storage of content data in Cloud Firestore, a NoSQL database in the cloud. Also presented are how the application was designed and its development process. Finally, the results show that the features implemented in the application in both platforms, and which are displayed through screens, have their use, in general, simplified and intuitive. And also listed are suggestions for implementations to be carried out in future work.
