TEAMS USING THE ENVIRONMENT FOR HYBRID TEACHING DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Abstract

The education system was heavily impacted in 2020 and 2021, with the COVID-19 outbreak classified by the WHO as a pandemic, making meetings in classrooms and physical contact impossible. Managers sought solutions to overcome these adversities, providing teachers with mechanisms that would allow them to meet academic needs and maintain the quality of teaching. The immediate solution to these obstacles was only possible thanks to the evolution and availability of TDICs. In order to carry out this work, which has as its main objective to investigate, based on student feedback, learning in classes built in the Teams environment, we carried out an exploratory research, with data collection in the Forms form, carried out in the second half of 2020 and the first semester of 2021, with interviews carried out in the in-person classes that took place in the second half of 2021. The main conclusions indicate that the evolution of TDICs enabled a rapid transition and adaptation of the process. During the analysis of the information generated, we identified that some actions can be performed by the teacher and offered to students during classes, such as adjustments to methodological procedures, improvement in the organization and consequent clarity of classes and clarification of doubts, which sometimes did not occur in the expected speed. And to continue the hybrid teaching, students need customized educational alternatives to move forward in their achievements as an apprentice. The Teams environmen was satisfactory for the process.
