Diálogos entre tecnologia e educação profissional e tecnológica (2013- 2018)

Abstract

In the contemporary world, digital technologies has been taken part in human experiences, directly integrating educational, social, political, economic and cultural experience. Increasingly “naturalized” in social relationships, they influence behavior patterns, transforming people's way of thinking, feeling and acting. Within the numerous analytical possibilities of the theme, the present dissertation presents the results of a research, related to the theme of technologies, focusing on the theoretical orientations pertinent to the relationship between technology and Professional and Technological Education (EFA). Thus, the objective is to analyze this relationship in specialized scientific journals, published in Brazil by the journal portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), between 2013 and 2018. Identifying articles that deal with the use of technologies in EPT. Specifically, the research chose the following scope: to identify, in the articles found, the speeches that form the readings about the uses of technologies in EPT, identifying the theoretical orientations that permeate their reflections. Regarding the methodology, the study is based on qualitative research that uses quantitative data. In other words, it is bibliographic, with a descriptive and inventive nature, permeated by content analysis. As for the time frame, it starts in 2013 when the Federal Network Modernization Program for the Use of Educational Technologies (PMTE) was implemented - part of the federal government's digital policies, through which tablets were distributed to teachers in the federal network, with a view to its use in school practices–, coming until 2018. As a result, the research presents the continuation of the technocentric stance in academic discourse and the growth of the critical position in relation to technologies. There was a gap in studies on the training of Administrative Technicians in Education (TAE) and their perception of technologies in EFA. In conjunction with the EPT, an educational product was applied by the researcher to professors at the Federal Institute of Science and Technology of Goiás (IFG), Câmpus Goiânia Oeste, who performed the reading and its validation.
