Aulas remotas e tempos de pandemia: a percepção dos professores de química do ensino médio

Abstract

The Epidemic characterized by the presence of a virus that has devastated the world with its characteristic of high transmissibility and lethality has led to a repeated change in the routine of people around the world. The education area was one of the hardest hit and everyone had to adapt to remote classes, quickly and with little knowledge of the necessary technology. This brought anguish and the need for reinvention, especially on the part of the teachers. This course completion work presents a reflection on the teaching of chemistry in elementary schools and the impacts of the covid-19 pandemic and remote education in 2020. Its objective is to understand, from the teachers' point of view, the difficulties and achievements of these professionals during the first months of remote learning. It is an exploratory research of predominantly qualitative nature. To obtain the data, a questionnaire was applied to teachers who teach in public and private primary education. After analyzing the questionnaires, it was possible to observe that remote teaching for chemistry classes is still a topic that really needs to be e xplored by teachers and the school community. And, in this sense, the execution of this teaching modality is still a challenge for these professionals. The results show several obstacles, ranging from problems of access and lack of resources to the need to promote equity for the development of practices that include all students.
