Internet e educação: o uso das tecnologias digitais como ferramenta pedagógica na área de filosofia

Abstract

The use of digital technologies in philosophy education has become increasingly relevant in the current educational context. This study aims to analyze how these technologies are being incorporated into philosophy classrooms, highlighting both their potential and the challenges faced by educators. The main objective of the research is to understand how digital technologies are employed in teaching this discipline. Specifically, the study seeks to comprehend the current context of philosophy education, identify the most commonly used technological resources by teachers, and examine the contributions of these tools to the teaching-learning process. In the contemporary educational context, digital technologies offer new possibilities for enriching philosophy teaching, providing greater interaction and access to diverse content. Tools such as video platforms, podcasts, educational games, online discussion forums, and multimedia resources have proven effective in stimulating critical thinking and philosophical reflection. Additionally, the use of virtual learning environments allows students greater flexibility in their studies and increased autonomy, key aspects in the teaching of philosophy. However, the implementation of digital technologies in philosophy classes also presents challenges, such as educators' adaptation to new tools and the need to select high-quality digital content. Continuous professional development and the updating of available resources are essential for the full integration of technologies into philosophy teaching. This study aims to contribute to understanding how digital technologies can transform pedagogical practices in philosophy education, improving the quality of teaching and expanding access to philosophical knowledge.
