O uso do Sistema Integrado de Gestão da Educação (SIGEduc) no município de Santa Rita – PB

Abstract

This research analyses the use of the online class diary through the Integrated Education Management System (SIGEduc) in terms of the use of this tool in the completion of pedagogical activities by teachers at Municipal Primary Schools (early years) in Polo I, in the municipality of Santa Rita, Paraíba. SIGEduc is a digital platform developed to computerise and optimise school management in basic education, covering both the administrative and academic aspects of educational institutions. The methodology adopted is characterised as applied and descriptive research, using a combined quantitative and qualitative approach. Data was collected using a questionnaire on Google Forms, based on categorical content analysis for data processing. The results showed that although teachers recognise the importance of SIGEduc, they still face technical and operational difficulties, as well as insufficient training to use the platform effectively. As a practical action, short video tutorials were developed to guide teachers, which were made available through the institutional networks of the Department of Education of the municipality of Santa Rita, Paraíba. The conclusion is that strengthening continuing education and technical support are essential if SIGEduc is to be fully incorporated as a tool to support pedagogical practice. This system has the potential to become a strategic tool in pedagogical planning, provided there is continuous investment in infrastructure, training and active listening to the teachers who constantly use this tool.
