PROINFO em Nova Iguaçu: tecnologia educacional e formação cultural ou Informática Educativa e semiformação?

Abstract

This research looks for an analysis and comprehension of the meaning(s) of the digital resources presence on school and of the technology on education. For that, it s defined as the study s object the National Program of Educational Technology (Proinfo) and as the empirical research the Nova Iguaçu s public education. Supported on the methodology of review the subject (AC), it approaches the guidelines that guide this Program of the Education Ministry (MEC) and looks for capture the aspects of the politic conduction from the municipal managers, revealing the conceptions that guide these actions. It gives theoretical support to this study the concepts of cultural formation/semi-formation, from Adorno, and the conception of technology, built, fundamentally, from the Adorno s, Horkheimer s and Marcuse s ideas. Our observations and analysis indicate that the introduction of the Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC) on schools rise, essentially, to answer the demand of the productive sector and not to organize new dynamics and new educational processes. Thus, the Proinfo presents itself as a new isolated pedagogic reform and has served to reform the crisis of the cultural formation.
