Letramento digital interface com a educação do campo

Abstract

The present Society has undergone great transformations and much of it has been strongly marked by the advance of technologies. These changes have had impacts on social, cultural, economic and even educational life. Technological resources have facilitated the life of society in general bringing agility, promoting interaction and quick access to information and communication. With regard to education, new technologies can contribute significantly since they allow the expansion of knowledge, in which students and teachers can have access to numerous educational materials available in networks, accessible for any type of research. For this, education counts on digital literacy, which aims to include technologies as teaching methods and study both inside and outside the classroom. Based on the rural education, digital literacy seeks to include peasants in the technology era aiming to promote local development and interaction of this population with everything that happens in the world of information and virtual communication. Within this perspective, we seek to consider the importance of digital literacy in society, looking at the needs of the rural population, and how these technologies can contribute to their reality. The current study is characterized as a bibliographical research, based on the considerations of several authors about the digital literacy theme and intends to contribute significantly to educational development mainly in the rural education.
