: o uso de TIC's como aprendizagem estratégica no processo de ensino, aprendizagem nas universidades : um estudo de caso em uma universidade maranhense

Abstract

The behavior pattern of the human being has been modified over time and our preference, habit and habits are gradually adapting to the new stimuli that we receive. Our economy, society and culture have been altered against what the theorist Manuel Castell calls TIC’s - Information and Communication Technologies. With this "new" cyber-cultural standard, society places knowledge in a prominent position as a resource of value and power, modifying the way one works and studies. We move from a traditional Taylor model, typical of industrial society, to a collaborative and participatory model. From this perspective, it is then able to take technology into the classroom, at all levels and more especially in higher education, allowing TIC’s to be an efficient support to the teaching activity corroborating with the process of teaching learning. This study was conducted at a Brazilian private university, in the state of Maranhão, São Luís, in the Social Communication Course with a degree in Advertising and Propaganda, in the discipline of Digital Media. The sample corresponded to 30% of the universe, totaling 23 students of the subject impacted with the use of the TIC's, randomly selected, by means of a draw in the digital platform "sorteador.com" to avoid tendencies of the answers. The interview was used to obtain qualitative and detailed information about what the study group knew, hoped for, felt and wanted with the use of TIC’s in the classroom by teachers, aiming to elucidate the result of this action in the teaching process. The research revealed that interaction with the technologies within the classroom allows students and teachers a better use of time and content, since the classes become more thought-provoking and dynamic, also making the student an active part of the building process and not just a mere receiver. Worthy here too is a peculiar reflective cut, the classroom is no longer the only knowledge-sharing environment; other environments, now virtual, also begin to compose this learning scenario.
