Measuring levels of cooperation and assertiveness in the e-learning system during a pandemic crisis
| Resumo: | This is a quantitative, cross-sectional study involving higher education students in two Portuguese polytechnic institutes. The methodological guidelines provided by Jardim and Pereira (2006) were used in the overall assessment of assertiveness (EAGA Scale) and cooperation in the academic community (EAGC Scale). Both scales are assessed on a five-point Likert scale consisting of 8 and 9 items, respectively. A non-probabilistic sampling method was used. The median value obtained in the Global Evaluation Scale of Cooperation was 35 (IQR=7.5) revealing a high cooperation capacity in the surveyed students. On the other hand, on the Global Assessment Scale of Assertiveness the median was 32 (IQR=7), which translates into a high ability in assertiveness. Additionally, we tried to identify if there was any relationship between the results obtained in both scales through the Spearman correlation coefficient (rs ). It was verified that there is a weak positive relation (rs=0.13) without statistical significance (p-value=0.19) These scales can be used as a complementary tool in distance learning so that teachers can outline teamwork strategies while maintaining the levels of cooperation and assertiveness in their students with a view to their school success. |
