Résumé:
With the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), which caused social isolation, classes became
remote. From then on, professors and students were forced to change their entire routine and
adapt to the use of digital technologies that became the new study environment. With regard
to teaching and learning Chemistry, it becomes even more challenging for having contents
considered difficult to understand. In this scenario, this research aims to investigate the
challenges faced in the teaching and learning process by teachers and students, from the
chemistry course at the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande (UFCG) campus Cuité, in
remote classes so that the experiences can be understood, experienced by both parties. For
this, a research was carried out using a qualitative and exploratory approach using two
questionnaires elaborated in the Google form. One of the questionnaires was destined to 13
professors, in which 10 professors participated, and the other was destined to 146 students,
with 40 participants. From the data obtained, it can be seen that although the teachers reported
having some experience with remote teaching, many students reported that the use of the
methodologies used by teachers often leaves something to be desired. Being able to reconcile
academic activities with those at home has been another great challenge for some teachers
and, especially, for many students. Although there are many challenges to be faced, remote
teaching made teachers and students reflect on new ways of teaching and learning. However,
more studies are needed regarding the use of digital technologies and how students are
attracted to them, as well as finding out how they should be interconnected with the teacher's
teaching methodology.
