Ensino remoto de violão : um olhar direcionado à adaptação dos docentes de uma escola especializada de música no ensino remoto emergencial.

Abstract

In the recent experience of the COVID-19 pandemic, with imposed social distancing and significant changes in various social aspects, there has been a significant transformation in the way of teaching and learning a musical instrument, especially in contexts where the process traditionally occurred in person. In this sense, the physical classroom setting has been replaced by lessons at home through virtual tools. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate this teaching context through qualitative research, with the overall goal of understanding and analyzing how the adaptation of guitar teachers from a specialized music school "X" to remote guitar instruction took place. From this overall goal, the following specific objectives emerged: to comprehend how teachers began to plan and conduct their remote lessons; to understand the main challenges faced by teachers in the process of remote teaching; to grasp and analyze teacher’s impressions about students in remote instruction; and to identify which strategies that were used have been retained upon the return to in-person settings. To construct the chapters on literature review and theoretical framework for this work, as well as to connect with the collected data, I conducted a bibliographic research to find authors discussing the topic. For data collection, a semi-structured interview was carried out as the primary instrument. Through the analysis of the collected data, it was possible to ascertain that the educators had no prior experience with remote teaching and sought to align the remote teaching experience with in-person instruction through synchronous lessons. As a means to overcome the challenges that arose, asynchronous tools were utilized. These tools were later incorporated by the educators into in-person teaching after the pandemic, as a result of the remote teaching experience.
