Keywords:
IPTV, IPTV services, QoS, QoE, Virtual Learning EnvironmentAbstract
This research work aims to improve the teaching-learning process using the implementation of IPTV services at the Polytechnic Higher Institute of Bié, based on the requirements of QoS (Quality of Service) and QoE (Quality of Experience) parameters. The implementation of IPTV services provides enormous potential in higher education, its conditions provide an active and collaborative education in the academic environment. The conducted research was a type of applied nature. From the point of view of its objectives, it is exploratory, descriptive and explanatory. To collect the data, the questionnaire survey and the interview were used. It has a qualitative approach and the technical procedure used was bibliographic and case study. The obtained results in the implementation of the proposed solution, it proved to be innovative and effective for the teaching-learning process at the Polytechnic Higher Institute of Bié, allowing the incorporation of VLE (Virtual Learning Environments) such as; the platforms MOOC (Massive Open Online Course), edX, Coursera, OCW MIT, MIRÍADA X, VEDUCA, OPENUPED and education support tools with contents for the use of IPTV, from the configuration of plugins on the plex media server, it allows communication between students and teachers reducing distance.
