Abstract

Currently, technology is considered an important tool in several areas of knowledge, including teaching and learning. This article addresses the insertion of technologies in the educational sphere, with the main objective of investigating how the insertion of technologies in the classroom as a pedagogical resource in the teaching of English in Brazil has been taking place, based on a literature review. As for the methodological procedures, it is a qualitative exploratory approach, through a literature review, supported by a survey in the database of Academic Google and Online Scientific Electronic Library, where authors were sought who address in their works studies related to the insertion of technologies as a pedagogical resource. The data were analyzed based on the specialized literature referenced, seeking to verify how the insertion of technologies as a pedagogical resource in the teaching of English in Brazil has been taking place, how teachers use technologies in the classroom, and whether there are consequences and challenges linked to use of information and communication technologies as a pedagogical resource. Therefore, the surveys analyzed indicated that many teaching institutions and education professionals are following this technological evolution and are aware of the importance of technology as a pedagogical resource. Because most teachers surveyed are inserting these resources in their pedagogical practices, despite the many challenges that still exist and need to be overcome when the agenda is the insertion of technology in education, as found in this research.
