Abstract:

This article, presents the research developed in the Laboratory of Computational Methods in Engineering of the Federal University of Rio De Janeiro in partnership with the Program of Education in the distance of the National School of Public Health Sergio Arouca (ENSP), approaching the integration between Distance Education and technology of Virtual Reality (VR) as reply to the educative demands in the distance of the field of the public health that demand the development of motor abilities, using, as application field, the formation of the professionals of the Food and Nutritional Surveillance, for being the base of one public politics of Brazil with target in the monitoring of lacks of nutrients. The prototype consists of a complementary virtual environment, supported in VR for the course of Monitoring of Food and Nutritional, that integrates offers to regulate courses of the Distance Education of ENSP approaching the anthropmetric procedures for being the most used in the survey of the nutritional state of the population. Having 189 participants visited the Virtual Environment the hypothesis could be evidenced of that the VR can be used as pedagogical resource to collaborate with the processes of professional formation in the distance, that they demand the development of motor abilities. Key words Virtual Reality, Distance Education, Anthropometry, Public Healt
