Abstract

Introduction: Feedback is information about a person's performance on a particular task. The lack of this item in the classroom can bring several damages to the quality of teaching. Objective: The study seeks to analyze the student's perception to generate relevant information to the teacher as feedback. Methodology: For this, we propose an innovative modeling with aspects of activity theory, multimodality and ontology use. Results: as a result, we intend to create ontology of classrooms that determine the activities of the teacher that can be aided with the students' perception in education. Conclusions: the possibility of applying their results for help and training the teachers, providing a way for the use of information in addressing the challenges of the classroom and qualification of teaching.
