Abstract

According to a survey conducted at the Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, Campus Pato Branco, teachers of technical-integrated course in surveying found that although the materials worked in class can be posted in the virtual learning environment, there is the difficulty of access to this information through mobile devices. In this context the idea to develop an application to facilitate student access to these contents.

Thus this paper proposes an Android application that integrates a virtual learning environment, where Moodle. Thereby enabling an improvement in access to information by students, who are currently living in a totally connected world. The application was developed using the App Inventor, software created by MIT which facilitates the development of programs for Android. To assist the performance of work, the approach used, with incremental life cycle. Was obtained finally the application as proposed, which allows students to download files available in the Moodle server to their mobile phones.
