Abstract

Throughout history, technological development has always transformed society, and New Information and Communication Technologies (NICTs) play an increasingly important role in communicating, learning and living, especially since its inception in the middle of the decade of 1970 in the context of the Third Industrial Revolution and Information Revolution. In bringing this theme to the national context, especially showing the reality of a Northeastern region of the Paraíbacariri, the present study will raise questions and present the correlation between Education and access to New Technologies of Information and Communication (NTICs). Seeking to answer fundamentally the following question: What contributions do these technologies bring to the teaching-learning process of Sociology? As well as to others that have emerged during the research, such as: What are the challenges faced in the pedagogical make of teachers to apply the New Technologies of Information and Communication in the classroom? What is the planning dynamics adopted by the pedagogical team with the teachers to enable the use of NICTs in the classroom? How do teachers place themselves in their practices, interact and behave with their students in the moments of application of the contents with the use of NICTs? So, when analyzing this reality, based on concepts such as "Cibercultura", "Educommunication", among others, it is possible to rethink the use of ICTs as an auxiliary tool in the development of the pedagogical practice of public basic education, especially in Sociology. Methodologically, it brings a qualitative approach and as instruments of data collection were used questionnaires, interviews and observations, taking into account that in the qualitative research a certain phenomenon is studied in its natural context related to its object (Günther, 2006), this object who are the professors of Sociology of the high school of three public schools of the Paraíbacariri (Sumé, Monteiro and Serra Branca), as well as the analysis of the collected data, discourse analysis was defined as method. In this way, this research will seek to point the NICTs in the classroom as auxiliary tools in the teaching-learning process, as well as the dynamics that are part of the teaching practice with the use of these technologies, also addressing the processes of continuous training, which had relevance in the personal and professional lives of these teachers.
