A INSERÇÃO ACELERADA DAS TDIC NA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL E ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL I DIANTE A PANDEMIA DA COVID-19

Abstract

When we discuss education paradigms, those that include Digital Information and Communication Technologies – DICT are of great relevance, given the importance and necessity of the insertion of these technologies in the daily routine of schools, in the teaching and learning processes. However, an issue related to global health, the new coronavirus, imposed the use of these tools abruptly and with little planning. Thus basic education students, as well as teachers, coordinators, managers, and the entire pedagogical team, suddenly needed to become familiar with the use of digital learning platforms and their tools. Taking this into consideration, the following questions emerged: Given the educational situation imposed by the pandemic, will the education model (online) be able to encompass the majority of children in Early Childhood Education, especially preschoolers (4 and 5 years old) and Elementary School (1st to 5th grade), especially those from public and less favored institutions? What is the quality of the teaching and learning process in this new model of education? Therefore, this paper aims to present a bibliographic research on the topic carried out from a  qualitative approach. The data were collected from readings in published scientific articles available on the internet, congresses, and virtual lectures.
