Abstract
A evolução para a sociedade do conhecimento, realçando a inovação científica e
tecnológica desencadeia novos contextos e desafios. É fundamental que os professores tenham
atitudes positivas face à utilização das Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação (TIC), para
garantir a efetiva integração das mesmas no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Perante este
contexto, neste estudo foi aplicado um inquérito por questionário a 115 professores de 3
agrupamentos de escolas em Portugal. Procurou-se, assim, compreender se as perspetivas e as
representações dos docentes sobre o contributo da utilização das TIC para a inovação
pedagógica e curricular, variam em função do ciclo de ensino (pré-escolar, 1º, 2º e 3º
ciclo/secundário de escolaridade) que lecionam. Os resultados evidenciaram que, à medida que
o nível de escolaridade vai aumentando, as exigências colocadas aos professores em termos de
utilização das TIC são maiores e que, de facto, os docentes do 3º ciclo/secundário são os que
mais investem em formação comparativamente aos professores inquiridos do pré-escolar e 1º
ciclo.
Recomenda-se uma maior aposta na formação contínua dos professores (desde o estágio)
e na realização de formações de qualidade que vão de encontro às necessidades dos docentes e
os auxiliem na elaboração de recursos potenciadores das aprendizagens.
Evolution towards the knowledge society, enhancing scientific and technological innovation, has unleashed new contexts and new challenges. It’s essential that teachers have positive attitudes towards the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in education, in order to ensure the effectiveness of teaching and learning process. Therefore, in the context of this study a survey was conducted involving 115 teachers and 3 groups of schools in Portugal in order to find out whether the teachers’ opinion on the impact of technology in education and curriculum innovation varies according to the different level they teach (preschool, primary school, 2nd and 3rd cycle of basic education grades and high school). Results showed that, the higher the teaching level, the stronger is the demand for the use of ICT by teachers. The teachers of the third cycle of basic education from Year 7 (age 12) and secondary level invest more in training on the referred technologies comparing with the teachers of other levels (preschool and primary teaching). It is recommended that teachers should attend ongoing and high-quality training (since their internship) in order to develop their ICT skills and therefore, become digitally literate, enhancing the construction of knowledge, based on active and innovative methodologies. (use ICT for formative learning assessments, individualized instruction, accessing online resources, and for fostering student interaction and collaboration).
