Tecnologia como Recurso Pedagógico

Prévia do material em texto

Keywords: Currently, the internet and digital technologies have created a new social paradigm called the information or 
knowledge society. The rapid evolution of electronic equipment is transforming social and teaching/learning 
relationships in school environments. The present work aimed to show how the use of technology as a 
pedagogical resource can promote more productive and critical classes during the continuous teaching/
learning process. The research was developed in three stages: 1) students were shown the project theme: 
Internet and technology as a teaching tool, explaining what QR CODES are, what their purpose is, how to 
create a QR CODE and how to read a QR CODE . Soon after, students were asked to download the reader 
application on their cell phones to demonstrate how to use the application to read the QR CODE. 2) in the 
second moment there was an expository class with the participation of students on the Environment and 
Sustainability, content explored through the application of a question-based dynamic. 3) the answers to the 
questions were displayed on the classroom walls in the form of a QR CODE, where each group searched for 
the answer to the question using the downloaded application to read it. As the project developed, it was 
possible to notice how technology can innovate learning, facilitating the exposure of content, making classes 
much more dynamic. The school has the function of transmitting scientific knowledge to students and needs 
to identify the best way to do this, as technologies are part of the lives of contemporary students and should 
be seen as a teaching tool. However, it is not enough for the school to acquire modern technological resources 
and materials; it is necessary to train teachers so that they can build new pedagogical concepts created 
through the use of pedagogical resources that promote practices in different areas of the educational system.

1 INTRODUCTION
Daily school life is experiencing many conflicts between teachers and students, cases of impatience, lack of 
motivation, disrespect, verbal aggression, absent and uncommitted students and teachers, among other 
factors, which according to Cruz (2011) make the teaching and learning process difficult. Therefore, much 
research is being developed in the search for new methodologies that meet the needs of 21st century society. 
The school needs to innovate, raise awareness among professionals, seek quality teaching and believe in 
the transformation of individuals.

2 LITERATURE REVIEW
Therefore, this project aimed to show how the use of technology as a pedagogical resource can promote more productive and critical 
classes during the continuous teaching and learning process.
2.1 Teaching
Parents must be the first to teach and impose limits on children, so that they learn to respect, not to attack, that is, they are 
encouraged to be someone better. Chalita (2001) states that the classroom should be a place where the teacher creates, researches 
and invents in the search for success in their classes. To build a teacher's identity, a theoretical in-depth approach is necessary to 
overcome difficulties, value the content, use good materials and build solid foundations with the discipline.
Teachers find it very difficult to adapt to technological, scientific and social changes, as these require new skills and abilities. According 
to Silva (2011), teachers find it difficult to use technological resources in the classroom because students are often distracted and this 
harms learning. However, the school has the function of transmitting scientific knowledge to students, but for this teaching to be of 
quality, it needs to innovate its methods.
According to Cruz (2011), teaching means instructing, educating, punishing, imparting knowledge, it can indicate doing, learning, 
intervening in the physical and social world of students, that is, when human beings are taught, they are preparing to live in society.
According to Cruz (2011), teachers are primarily responsible for the teaching and learning process and must always evaluate their 
work and innovate their pedagogical methodology. The teacher needs to be at his student's side mediating learning and to do so, he 
must adopt the use of technologies as one of the pedagogical resources.
Technological advances have influenced several areas of human knowledge, including in the educational context. According to Diniz 
(2001), information technology expands the human capacity to learn and therefore, contemporary teaching places the student at the 
center of the teaching and learning process.
2.2 Technology combined with education in schools
Technological advancement began with the internet and education also benefited from this resource, improving its teaching tools, 
allowing for deeper scientific knowledge. For Souza and Souza (2010), technological resources motivate students through quick 
access to information,
Educating is complex. According to Cury (2007), to overcome obstacles it is necessary to accept limitations and difficulties through 
an emotional bond. Therefore, the teacher is important for the teaching and learning process and needs to understand his student, 
develop his critical awareness and then overcome the difficulties between teacher and student. Learning is constant and continuous 
and therefore this process must be constructive so that it brings benefits to students' academic lives.
Currently, changes are seeking the new. Souza and Souza (2010) state that information technology is becoming increasingly important 
in all areas of knowledge, especially in the area of education. The school needs to transmit knowledge through problematization, 
group discussions, promoting critical reflection within them.

2.3 Use of information technology in education
Silva (2012) states that through technological means, children are able to develop autonomy for study and 
research. To achieve this, the methodologies can be aimed at processing and editing images, multimedia 
presentations, creating websites, video editing, file manipulation, internet research, among other means.
According to Silva (2012), Vygotsky's theory developedtheories aimed at the acquisition of knowledge and argues 
that historical changes and the material world of the individual's environment interfere with their nature, that is, 
knowledge, thought, language, they are results of social relations. Development is the result of the formation of the 
individual who, through socialization, develops their mental processes. For him, the student is the one who learns 
and absorbs knowledge, language and values and, therefore, education occurs from the outside in.
“The use of information technology in the area of education is more complex than the use of another teaching 
resource known to date” (VALENTE, 1993, p. 26), as this resource has many functions and can be used in many 
areas of the market of work.
Although technology allows for great advancement in contemporary society, in order to use the media and be able 
to interact, the individual needs digital literacy. Teachers need to be trained to deal with these digital resources 
and then use technology as a pedagogical resource (SEEGGER et. al., 2012).
Silva (2012) adds that the computer has revolutionized teaching because of the variety of techniques and also the very low cost of 
implementing and maintaining computer laboratories. These innovations bring insecurity to teachers because machines are able to develop 
actions that were previously exclusive to humans.
Souza and Souza (2010) add that virtual communication has allowed cultures, information and notions of the world 
to come together, as it goes beyond borders with just quick access. New technologies reduce the obstacles that 
impede an individual's social, economic, political and financial progress, creating shortcuts through the use of 
various means and structures that benefit the population.
however, information taken from the internet must be analyzed and questioned so that a solid base of knowledge 
can be formed.
However, developing a tutorial is expensive and difficult because software developers prefer to invest in 
entertainment, i.e. graphics and sounds, rather than investing in programs.
2.4 The computer as a teaching machine
According to Valente (1997), the computer should be used in education as a machine and not as a teaching tool, 
that is, it is necessary to computerize traditional teaching methods. In this way, information is passed, for example, 
through a tutorial, exercise, practice or game.
Tutorial programs, for example, have programmed instruction and allow the computer to present materials with 
characteristics that are not permitted on paper, such as animation, sound and maintaining control of the learner's 
performance, facilitating the process of administering lessons and possible learning programs. remediation. 
Furthermore, they are widely used at school because they do not cause much change in the teaching process and 
the teacher does not need much training to use them.

QR Code allows you to store different types of data, including alphabetic, numeric, symbols, binary, 
Kanji and Kana (Japanese alphabet) characters. While the traditional barcode can have a maximum 
of 20 digits, a QR Code can store up to 7,089 characters. These characters can be combined into a 
large symbol or divided into up to 16 symbols. Another great advantage of QR Codes is the 
possibility of being scanned from different 360 degree angles (RIBAS, et. al., 2017, p. 14).

• Exercise and Practice: These are activities aimed at reviewing and memorizing content seen
3 METHODOLOGY
• Tutorials: The student defines content to view and can then be questioned about what they learned, 
following the automatic correction of answers. This system is limited because it only checks the final 
result and not the process used to achieve it;
This application allows quick access to information and various types of services such as: audio-guided tours of 
museums, board games, educational videos, scientific research, etc. Therefore, it can be very useful to 
educators, as it allows the transmission of information in an interactive manner.
Valente (2001) defines software combined with pedagogical actions in:
According to Cocco and Pertile (2011), games stimulate the physical and emotional development of children 
and the computer in the school environment can be an educational tool that helps in the teaching and learning 
process. Gros (2003) states that for games to be profitable, the objectives must be well defined so that they 
develop important skills to expand the cognitive and intellectual capacity of students.
According to Ribas et. al. (2017, p. 14) the Qr Code was developed in 1994, by Denso Wave, in Japan, with the 
aim of “creating a code that could be quickly interpreted by reading equipment, so that it could catalog 
automotive components produced by she".
Silva (2010) points out that among the disadvantages of intelligent tutorial systems is that the system's 
intervention in the learning process is very superficial, as it does not replace a good teacher and the size of the 
programs and computational resources are greater than the capacity of personal computers. . This lack of 
resources and also training means that the majority of tutorials on the market are of poor quality.

Teaching, showing in slide format:
After finishing the class, the students and the teacher were thanked for participating and everyone received a candy along 
with a motivational message in the form of a QR CODE.
Firstly, the project theme was presented: Internet and Technology as a Tool for
The winning group received a biz box as a form of reward and incentive.
The activities of the aforementioned project were carried out with fifty students, including two classes from the 1st year of 
high school aged between16 and 20 years old and with an EJA (Education of young people and adults) class aged 
between 35 and 70 years old. , from Colégio Estadual EFEM The steps were carried out as follows:
In the third moment, the answers to the questions were displayed on the walls of the classroom in the form of a QR 
CODE, where each group searched for the answer to the question using the downloaded application to read it. The 
questions were exposed and read one by one during the dynamic.
To obtain the results, the field research method was used. Field research involves observing facts and phenomena as 
they occur in reality, collecting data relating to them and, finally, analyzing and interpreting the data, with theoretical and 
consistent bases, aiming to understand and explain the problem researched (FUZZI, 2010).
In the second moment, the class took place with the content explored during the dynamic, in which the topics covered 
were: “What is the Environment, Environment and ecology, Compositions of the Environment, Environmental Preservation/
Sustainability, The importance of Recycling for the Environment Environment, National Environmental Policy” The 
presentation of the content was done so that students could fix the content for later application of a dynamic that will be 
the basis of questions.
3.2 Data collection method
ÿ HOW TO CREATE?
Soon after, all students were asked to download the reader application on their cell phones to demonstrate how to use 
the application to obtain the main objective, which is to show the message hidden in the QR CODE.
As the project developed, it was possible to notice how much technology can innovate within the school environment, 
facilitating the exposure of content related to classes, making them much more dynamic.
We present the bibliographic study that is characterized by using research already described in the literature (SEVERINO, 
2007).
ÿ PURPOSE?
ÿ HOW TO READ?
From the research carried out at the Colégio Estadual de Paraíso do Norte - EFEM, with high school students from EJA 
(Youth and Adult Education), it was possible to ascertain that the vast majority of students present had cell phones, 
however in the class of EJA only one student had it.

• How many students did not install the application, the answer obtained was 60% (30 students).
• As for those who did not have a cell phone, the answer obtained was 20% (10 students);
Corroborating Sampaio (2018), it is clear that just the board, notebook and pen are no longer enough to keep students 
interested in learning. In this scenario, the pedagogical use of technology can contribute to student motivation.
Therefore, it is necessary that the teacher, when entering the classroom, is concerned with transmitting the best 
knowledge to his students, mediating situations, as this is part of his profession. Discipline should not be seen as 
something imposed by the teacher or as an obligation on the student, but as a necessity of existing social relationships 
and learning.

of education and technologies, is of paramount importance for student training. The good development of the work of 
teachers and other segments of the school is essential, always highlighting the link between scientific knowledge and 
social practice.
In this sense, the teacher needs to reflect the action-reflection-action process, and become aware that he cannot stop in 
time, that the knowledge he possesses should not be discarded, but rather associated with the new paradigm, promoting 
change as educator, that your reflection on your actions is constant, being able to modify your actions in favor of education.
However, it can be considered that this study not only raised the causes, but also found possible alternatives to attract 
students as true partners in the teaching-learning process through the tools offered by technology, since the union of 
teachers, students and professionals
It became evident, throughout the construction of this work, that the teacher can promote, through audiovisual media, 
mechanisms that facilitate the construction of knowledge, even knowing that technological resources are always inserted, 
opening new spaces, incorporating language in a broad way, introducing new technologies, developing cognitive, affective 
and social capabilities based on technological resources.
