Investigação do uso das tecnologias digitais no Ensino de Ciências nas séries finais do ensino fundamental nas escolas públicas

Abstract

The continuous growth of digital technologies emerges from discussions about the use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT) in contemporary teaching and learning processes. It is evident that such advances have driven significant changes in people's daily lives and, consequently, in teaching and learning methodologies in schools. Technologies are gaining ground in classrooms as a new form of learning and interaction between teachers and students, making the school environment more attractive and engaging for everyone. Thus, the purpose of this article is to present an investigation into the use of digital technologies in the teaching of science in the final grades of elementary education in public schools through a literature review. The methodology of this research is a literature review, based on articles and research websites on the use of digital technologies in science education. The selection of bibliographic material was carried out on Google Scholar and Scielo databases, covering the period from 2013 to 2023. Through this bibliographic approach, it is observed that the use of technology in education, specifically in science education at the elementary level, still reveals modest progress, despite technology being intrinsically present in our daily lives.
