Percepção de professores em relação ao uso das tecnologias de informação de comunicação (TICs) em sala de aula

Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are important resources for use in the classroom, given the new contemporary challenges in teaching and learning. In this context, the use of ICTs favors the interaction between educator and student, providing significant learning through new technological resources. The general objective of this study was to describe teachers' perceptions regarding the use of ICTs in the school environment. Specifically, the objective was to list the main ICTs used by teachers in the school environment, identify the benefits and challenges perceived by teachers in relation to ICTs in the classroom and observe how teachers are using ICTs in their daily activities. The problem asks how ICTs are perceived by teachers, with the hypothesis that the use of these technologies can facilitate their activities, thus improving teaching and learning. As methodological support, a qualitative and quantitative approach was carried out, through the application of online questionnaires with 20 teachers from the state high school network of Uruçuí-PI, of various disciplines. The results indicate a significant adoption of ICTs by teachers, with varying frequencies of use, and most recognize the benefits of ICTs, such as increased engagement and facilitating the explanation of complex content. As challenges, the lack of infrastructure and the need for continuous training were the most reported. Therefore, it is concluded that the perception of ICTs by municipal teachers in Uruçuí - PI is positive, but challenges still remain in their implementation, especially infrastructure and continuous training in these technologies
