Abstract

Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC), such as cell phones, computers and social networks are part of society and therefore digital training is no longer a choice, but a learning need, this training needs to be inserted into the teacher's pedagogical practices. Therefore, this work questions how the computer science teacher contributed to the digital formation of students. Therefore, this study's main objective is to identify the pedagogical actions of computer science teachers, at Campus Natal-Zona Norte, which they created for the digital training of students in the context of digital culture, like as a digital space for interaction and new forms of communication in a large connected network, as presented by Pierre Lévy (2011). As specific objectives, to identify: the level of importance given by computer science teachers at Campus Natal-Zona Norte in building pedagogical actions that encourage digital training, to understand which of the identified pedagogical actions can contribute to digital training in the context of learning and which skills and competences are more valued in the pedagogical actions developed by the IT teacher in the teaching process. To meet the purpose of the study, the research was based on material about the student's relationship with technology, the representation of the computer science teacher, technology as resources, curriculum and digital culture. The methodology used was field research, of an exploratory nature, which from the application of an automated with computer science teachers and students and former students of the Licentiate, the quantitative and qualitative method was used based on the technique of categorical analysis. The results showed that seven teachers out of a total of ten who work on campus contribute started the digital training of undergraduate students based on pedagogical practices that involvement of contents related to digital citizenship, which involve the proper use of technologies, and technologies and societies, which involve ways of communicating. but that it is still necessary to go beyond the use of technologies as technological instruments.
