O uso de recursos das NTIC em escolas de Ensino Médio do município de Caçapava do Sul: perspectiva dos docentes da área das Ciências da Natureza

Abstract

This present monograph sought to investigate some perspectives of high school physics, chemistry and biology teachers, from two public schools in Caçapava do Sul county, Rio Grande do Sul state, regarding to use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Part of the research involved a survey of the current conditions (technical specifications, maintenance and system operation) of main resources of new technologies available in the schools, for the purpose of characterize parameters that can give contextualization support and result analysis. As the same objective, intend to plan, succinctly, a social-work profile of teachers, through a questionnaire consisting of open and closed questions. The main goal was to understand the way these professionals work and use the ICT resources, addressing the practical and pedagogical bias and theoretical and methodological assumptions. The treatment of the results was guided mainly by a qualitative approach mixed with quantitative aspects, establishing, when possible, correlations and inferences pertinent to the adopted theoretical references. Due to limitations of extension in the answers provided, the use of Discursive Textual Analysis (DTA) on the most relevant questions was incipiently used, emerging three categories: Time issues, lack of resources and interest and update. From a wide perspective of teachers interviewed, noted that two schools have unsatisfactory technological resources, inappropriate to current reality and insufficient to attend the schools demands, as a construction e student’s task.
