Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The coronavirus pandemic had a significant impact on society. In education, it led to the closure of schools and the adoption of Emergency Remote Teaching to continue classes at the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Sul (IFSul). Teachers and students had to adapt quickly to the new scenario, which brought new challenges and opportunities, boosting and highlighting the importance of using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education. Given this scenario, this research aims to identify how the use of DICTs has supported teaching processes in the midst of the pandemic and what the consequences of their use have been on the return to face-to-face teaching. Through a methodological process of a qualitative and exploratory nature, a case study was carried out, with the application of a questionnaire to teachers and students and subsequent analysis of the data obtained and content analysis. In conclusion, it was possible to see that ICT-mediated education can foster collaborative learning between all those involved, in favor of more horizontal relationships. In addition, the results also give rise to reflections on the possibilities of use and the future paths to be explored.
