O impacto das tecnologias digitais no ensino de língua portuguesa para alunos do ensino médio durante a pandemia da Covid-19: desafios e oportunidades.

Abstract

This study presents a reflection on the incorporation of new digital technologies in the teaching of Portuguese Language in High School during the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated significant changes in the educational system, with the temporary closure of schools and the transition, as an emergency solution, to remote teaching. This unexpected situation generated challenges and opportunities, and the need to adapt the teaching process became a priority. The main objective of this work was to investigate how technologies were used in the teaching of Portuguese Language to High School students during the COVID-19 pandemic, aiming to improve the quality of education and promote student engagement in a remote teaching environment. Throughout the construction of this work, ideas from authors who address the subject were highlighted: Azzari (2013), Belloni (2009), Matos (2020), Silva and Fuza (2017), Toledo (2011), among others. New technologies can make teaching more interactive, engaging and tailored to students' individual needs. However, it is essential to understand how these technologies are being used, their actual impact on student performance and how they can be optimized to maximize educational benefits. Their use within the teaching-learning process has been intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic, but their use in the classroom enables, beyond this moment, great achievements in education and contributes significantly to dynamic, enjoyable and meaningful learning.
