Modelo de uso de tecnologias de informação e comunicação - TIC nas escolas secundárias

Abstract

The National Informatics Policy defined education as a priority area for the use and teaching of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Hence the great need to produce a curriculum that can enable the teaching of ICT in schools It is true that there is the project “Schoolnet” Mozambique, also known as Internet for Schools, which operates in some secondary schools in the country with the aim of introducing the use of ICT for students and teachers in the teaching and learning process. To continue the work of training teachers and students in secondary schools, initiated by the schoolnet project in 1998, it is necessary to define a curriculum for the teaching of information technology in the country in order to make the use of ICT in secondary education more solid. . This work presents a brief analysis of the current model of ICT use in pre-university schools in Maputo, where the schoolnet project is operating, and suggests a curriculum for the subject of informatics, as a way to solve one of the problems that unfortunately overshadowed this first experience of using ICT in secondary education - the absence of a curriculum. A new model for the use and teaching of ICT is also proposed, which includes the possible creation of cafe-intermet in schools. The curriculum was drawn up following the rules for curriculum development, which guide the definition of the program's objectives, the methodological guidelines, the description of the contents and the teaching time for each theme. It should be noted that it is suggested that this discipline be implemented in a first phase from the 10th to the 12th grade and in the medium technical institutes, with the inclusion of the 8th and 9th grades for the next phase. To illustrate the management system for the use of ICT in schools, some diagrams are presented, which allow the visualization of the entire information flow that is part of the use and teaching of ICT. The processes were all described, indicating the corresponding tasks. (TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
