EDUCAÇÃO E TECNOLOGIA: O USO DAS TECNOLOGIAS DA INFORMAÇÃO E COMUNICAÇÃO NA EDUCAÇÃO

Abstract

With globalization and the consequent expansion of the internet, new ways of teaching and learning have emerged. The need to keep up with technological innovations has created a dependency on technology that directly influences society. The aim of this work was to analyze the reasons why new information and communication technologies are not used in the educational unit to enhance and facilitate learning, as well as to reflect on their use in the school environment by describing the benefits and challenges to be overcome. Thus, a qualitative research based on a literature review was presented, using the non-participant observation method in classes from 1st to 5th grade at a municipal school in the interior of Goiás. The results indicated the need for investment in technological tools, and for collective effort, unity, and reflection on praxis, aiming at building an education aligned with contemporary demands.
