Abstract

This research aims to understand the reality and challenges faced by professors in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic scenario. The coronavirus spread around the world, not choosing its victims, it just spread quickly and made the entire planet stop in an attempt to reduce the damage. In the midst of this world-class catastrophe, education has also suffered the consequences, with the doors of schools and universities closed, as a security measure, in an attempt not to spread the virus further and put lives at greater risk. Within this context, the general objective of this research is to analyze the reality and challenges faced by professorsin the face of the Covid-19 pandemic scenario. In order to have a better theoretical basis for the research, official documents such as the Law of Guidelines and Bases of Education (BRASIL, 1996) and authors such as Libâneo (1994, 2006), Boaventura Santos (2020),Passini et al (2020) were used , between others. This is a qualitative research, which sought to answer the following research questions: How were teachers at a public school in the interior of Paraíba able to adapt their classes to the context of the new coronavirus pandemic? What are the biggest challenges and discoveries in face of this new reality? The methodology consisted, firstly, in a bibliographical research, followed by a field research, interviewing teachers from a public school in the interior of Paraíba. After analyzing the data obtained, it was possible to verify that the changes that occurred during this period were great. We found that, despite the challenges, there were positive points, such as learning new technologies and a closer relationship with the students' families. Despite the difficulties, the return to in-personclasses still divides opinions and at the moment, the greatest concern is with everyone's healthand well-being.
