Abstract

The digital technologies of information and communication, when used in the educational context, can potentialize learning developing learning environments, improving and modernizing teaching practices. From this perspective, a study was developed aiming to verify the use of these technologies as a didactic and pedagogical resource for courses in health. The results evidenced the difficulties mentioned by lecturers: inadequate universitary structure; deficient academic training and resistance to use these technologies. As strategies to soften these challenges, it was placed emphasis on the lecturer qualification and on the instruction in specificities of technological resources since their formation. The Moodle platform, the educational chat and the discussion forum were the most used. We conclude that the health education institutions are not effectively using all their pedagogical potential of the disposable tools and although access to the technologies is growing rapidly, this expansion is not followed by qualification and transformation of the teaching process.
