Tecnologias livres na educação on line: análise de uma experiência formativa durante a pandemia.

Abstract

Faced with the limitations imposed by the pandemic, educational institutions began to offer remote teaching, predominantly using proprietary technological platforms. The research presented here aims to analyze the offer and mediation of an Extension Course developed by IFBA - Campus Jacobina in 2021, which proposed the use of Free Technologies in Online Education, as an alternative to the dominance of proprietary platforms. To this end, exploratory research was carried out, using a qualitative approach, seeking to understand the meaning of the data collected through field research, in which the researcher acted as one of the course mediators. As research results, analyzes will be presented regarding the technical-pedagogical design of the course; participants' perception regarding the course offering and mediation; motivations, challenges and strategies for using Free Technologies in their teaching practices.
