The Padlet in Online Education of Degrees

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic, experienced since the beginning of 2020, forced us to live a physical distance and suspend face-to-face classes. This situation aggravated problems experienced by schools and universities. Showing the fragility of institutions not only in a structure that follows the advances of the 21st century, but also in teacher training. In this article we aim to discuss the pedagogical practices adopted in the pandemic period and present practices developed in the Mathematics Degree Course and in the Mathematics Pibid of the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG), in Cajazeiras, Paraiba. We present the use of the Padlet application as a teaching methodology in different contexts, encouraging student interaction and authorship. We can observe that many practices implemented for the continuity of classes bring a confusion of concepts and reproduction of traditional and content teaching practices. Interfaces like Padlet can boost creativity, authorship and co-authorship and interaction, principles of online education.
