Resumo
Resumo: A pesquisa investigou práticas desenvolvidas no laboratório de informática de uma escola pública, analisando, principalmente, a abordagem pedagógica implementada nas formas de uso dos computadores. A metodologia adotada apoiou-se em uma abordagem qualitativa, utilizando-se alguns elementos da etnografia. Usou-se como instrumento de coleta a observação participante e entrevista semi-estruturada. Os sujeitos, um professor do laboratório e um da sala de aula, foram selecionados a partir de critérios previamente estabelecidos. Os resultados da pesquisa apontam que o laboratório vem sendo utilizado sistematicamente na escola, a partir de diferentes modalidades. Entretanto, ainda, são muitas as dificuldades encontradas que impedem práticas mais interacionistas.
Abstract: The study investigated practices developed in the computer lab at a public school, analyzing mainly the pedagogical approach implemented in the forms of use of computers. The methodology adopted was based on a qualitative approach, using some elements of ethnography. It was used as a tool for collecting participant observation and semi-structured interview. The subject, a professor at the lab and a classroom were selected from previously established criteria. The survey results indicate that the laboratory has been used systematically in school, from different modalities. However, still, there are many practical difficulties that prevent more interactionist.
