The impact of COVID-19 on Brazilian teachers' perception of technology using Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK)

Abstract

Maintaining educational activities during the coronavirus pandemic has posed challenges to teachers as communication technologies are one such challenge. In this context, this study aimed to identify the consequences of intense exposure to digital technologies in pedagogical actions during the pandemic, outlining a profile of Brazilian teachers concerning the educational use of these technologies and applying the TPACK.xs questions. The methodological procedure was separated into two steps: (i) Survey Design and Data Collection and (ii) Data and Content Analysis. The 564 Brazilian teachers' results showed Brazilian teachers' position relative to TPACK. One of the impacts of using digital technologies adapted to educational processes was seen by 57% of Brazilian teachers who were positioned in technology-hybrid components. This study shows a possible turning point in teaching and learning processes, considering integrating pedagogy, content, and emerging technologies to face more accessible education
