The Internet has changed the way teachers and students access information and build knowledge. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has created challenges for both teachers and students and a demand for new methodologies of remote learning. In the life sciences, mixing online content with practical activities represents an even greater challenge. In microbiology, the implementation of an active teaching methodology, the #Adopt project, based on the social network Facebook®, represents an excellent option for connecting remote education with classroom activities. In 2020, the version applied in high school, “Adopt a Microorganism”, was adapted to meet the demands of emergency remote education owing to the suppression of face-to-face activities caused by the pandemic. In the present study, we assessed how the change in methodology impacted the discourse richness of students from high school integrated with technical education in the Business Administration program of the Federal Institute of São Paulo, Sorocaba Campus. Three questionnaires related to the groups of microorganisms (Archaea, Bacteria, Virus, Fungi, and Protozoan) were applied. The students’ responses in the 2019 and 2020 classes were compared concerning content richness and multiplicity of concepts through the application of the Shannon diversity index, an approach that is generally used to assess biodiversity in different environments. The observed results suggest that remote learning provided students with a conceptual basis and richness of content equivalent to that achieved by students subjected to the hybrid teaching model. In conclusion, this study suggests that the #Adopt project methodology increases students’ discourse richness in microbiology even without face-to-face traditional classes.

AbstractThe internet has changed the way teachers and students access information and build knowledge. The COVID-19 pandemic has recently created challenges for both teachers and students, demanding new methodologies for remote learning. In Life Sciences, mixing online content with practical activities represents an even greater challenge. In Microbiology, the implementation of an active teaching methodology, the #Adote project, based on the social network Facebook®, represents a great alternative to associate remote education with classroom activities. In 2020, the version applied in high school, “Adopt a Microorganism”, was adapted to meet the demands of emergency remote education due to the suppression of face-to-face activities caused by the pandemic. In the present study, we assessed how the change in methodology impacted the learning of Microbiology and the richness of the discourse of high school integrated to technical education in Business Administration of the Federal Institute of São Paulo, Campus Sorocaba. For that, three questionnaires related to the adopted microorganism species were applied. The responses of students in the 2019 and 2020 classes were compared in terms of content richness and multiplicity of concepts through the application of the Shannon diversity index, an approach usually used to assess biodiversity in different environments. The observed results suggest that remote learning provided students with a conceptual basis and richness of content equivalent to those achieved by students submitted to the hybrid teaching model. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that the #Adote project methodology can be used in both hybrid and remote models, indicating that it is a viable alternative not only for teaching Microbiology, but possibly for other areas of knowledge.

The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted educational leaders to restructure the curriculum and modify the instructional set-up to accommodate remote learning of which using technology is the most viable solution to the existing problem. This study explores how teachers adapt and utilise technology-based teaching, and what makes students learn under blended learning modalities in Taytay Senior High School. Quantitatively, using the validated survey questionnaire anchored on the technology adaptation model and the adaptive learning environment model, this study revealed that teachers' age is the factor in all aspects of the model (performance and effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions). When comparing the adaptation levels of students and teachers, it showed that teachers were slightly higher than the students, and that there is a negligible correlation. The findings of this study will serve as baseline data for immediate actions for items that surfaced concerns as hindrance or factors that can hamper students’ academic performance.

The great challenge in these last decades in education is the growing search for innovative teaching methodologies that enable a pedagogical praxis able to form subjects with ethical, historical, critical, reflective, transformative and humanized profile. The present study stems from the following problematization: what is the contribution of the active teaching methodology called “World Café” in teaching and learning processes, so that it favors teaching innovation in remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic? In facing this problem, the following objectives were listed: a) understanding the contributions of the World Café Method in teaching and learning process innovation; b) analyze the viability of the World Café Method in remote learning. A quali-quantitative, descriptive and applied methodological strategy is employed, drawing on Barbosa (2013), Berbel (2011), Brown and Isaacs (2007), Minayo (2010), Moran (2014) and Triviños (1987). The data were analyzed using discourse analysis techniques (Bardin, 2016). We conclude that it is possible to use the World Café Method in virtual, remote learning, as it enables the promotion of ideas, discussions, reflections, questions, and engages participants, that is, a collective learning process.

At this time, the school is conducting online learning from home due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but teachers and students still do online-based or Virtual Class learning through various applications, one of which is Google Classroom. The implementation of Google Classroom is still very public for learners, because usually teachers teach face-to-face. The purpose of this article is to determine the effectiveness of the Virtual Class implementation with Google Classroom in the Covid-19 pandemic Physics study. The method used in the form of charging poll through the Google Form in junior high school class VII-IX randomly represents one province namely West Java. From the results of a descriptive survey the results of the Google Classroom are less effective in physical learning, but are effective in virtual class learning and can be used as a Covid-19 pandemic learning app. So it can be concluded that students still need teachers directly in the process of learning physics.

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar percepções de estudantes e professores do Instituto Federal de Minas Gerais (IFMG) sobre a experiência com o ensino remoto emergencial (ERE), motivado pela pandemia de COVID-19, bem como identificar as principais dificuldades no processo de adaptação dos cursos técnicos integrados, organizados para oferta presencial. A pesquisa teve cunho exploratório, abordagem quali-quantitativa e foi desenvolvida entre os meses de junho e outubro de 2020, obtendo a participação de 156 docentes e 739 discentes de diversos campi do IFMG, por meio de formulários eletrônicos de participação voluntária. A análise dos dados possibilitou a caracterização de importantes fatores para se discutir o ensino remoto, como disponibilidade de internet e de dispositivos eletrônicos, além da identificação das principais dificuldades associadas ao ERE no IFMG. Dentre os principais problemas encontrados pelos estudantes, destacaram-se a dificuldade em estudar autonomamente e de manter uma rotina diária de estudos. O acesso à internet, equipamentos eletrônicos, materiais de estudo e uso de ambientes virtuais de aprendizagem não se destacaram como fatores de grande dificuldade. Os próprios discentes avaliaram haver diferenças entre sua aprendizagem no ensino remoto quando comparada com o presencial. Na análise dos docentes, destacou-se a importância dada à necessidade de qualificação e disponibilidade de ferramentas apropriadas para o ensino remoto. Pode-se concluir, a partir dos dados recolhidos e analisados, que os maiores problemas para o ensino na modalidade remota emergencial ocorrem pelo próprio formato do ERE, dificuldades estas, possivelmente, agravadas pelo impedimento de interação social e educacional presencial entre colegas e professores. Palavras-chave: Ensino remoto emergencial. COVID-19. Pandemia. IFMG.   Emergency remote teaching during the pandemic: diagnosis of difficulties faced by students and teachers of technical education in the IFMG Abstract This article aims to present the perceptions of students and teachers of the Federal Institute of Minas Gerais (IFMG) about their experiences with emergency remote teaching (ERT), motivated by the pandemic of COVID-19, as well as to identify the main difficulties when adapting the teaching method of technical education courses, originally organized to face-to-face format. The research had an exploratory nature, a quali-quantitative approach and was developed between the months of June and October of 2020. It had the participation of 156 teachers and 739 students from several campuses, through electronic forms of voluntary participation. Data analysis enabled the characterization of important factors to remote education, such as availability of internet and electronic devices, in addition to identification of main difficulties associated with ERT. Among the main problems encountered by students, the difficulty to study autonomously and to maintain a daily study routine stood out. On the other hand, access to the internet, to electronic equipment, study materials and use of virtual learning environments did not stand out as factors of great difficulty. The students themselves assessed that there are differences between their learning in remote education when compared to face-to-face. When assessing the teachers, the importance given to the need for qualification and availability of appropriate tools for remote teaching was highlighted. From the data collected in this research, it can be concluded that the biggest problems for teaching in this emergency mode occurs due to the ERT format itself. Those difficulties are possibly aggravated by the impediment of in-person social and educational interaction between colleagues and teachers. Keywords: Emergency Remote Teaching. COVID-19. Pandemic.

ABSTRACT<br />New concepts and techniques in teaching have been developed to support conventional methods that rely solely on one-way teaching methods in the classroom. One of the teaching methods that are developing in the present is e-learning. E-learning can help teachers to distribute their teaching materials without having to be in the classroom by using the internet. This can be utilized when teachers are unable to attend class. So, that the distribution of materials, assignments or quizzes or even discussions between teachers and students can still take a place. Teaching and learning activities face-to-face in high school Muhammadiyah 1 Denpasar experienced have a obstacles, because teachers who have busy outside the school either in the organization or in the Muhammadiyah foundation. So, the teachers can not teach in the classroom. This research was conducted to build supporting learning media at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Denpasar that can assist teachers in delivering all teaching materials online. So, that students can access teaching materials anywhere and can be used as an additional discussion media to discuss lesson material that has not been completed and can be useful as media in delivering and collecting assigned tasks<br />Keywords : E-learning, Internet, Online<br />ABSTRAK<br />Berbagai konsep dan teknik baru dalam pengajaran telah banyak dikembangkan untuk mendukung metode konvensional yang hanya mengandalkan pada metode pengajaran satu arah di kelas. Salah satu metode pengajaran yang sedang berkembang di masa sekarang adalah e-learning. E-learning dapat membantu para pengajar dalam mendistribudikan bahan ajar mereka tanpa harus berada di kelas dengan menggunakan internet, hal ini dapat dimanfaatkan saat guru berhalangan hadir dikelas, sehingga pendistribusian materi, tugas atau quiz atau bahkan diskusi antara guru dan siswa tetap dapat berlangsung. Kegiatan belajar mengajar secara tatap muka di SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Denpasar mengalami kendala, karena guru yang memiliki kesibukan di luar sekolah baik di organisasi atau di yayasan Muhammadiyah sehingga guru tidak dapat mengajar di kelas. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk membangun media pembelajaran pendukung pada SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Denpasar yang dapat membantu pengajar dalam menyampaikan semua bahan ajar secara online sehingga siswa dapat mengakses bahan ajar dimana saja dan dapat dijadikan media diskusi tambahan untuk membahas materi pelajaran yang belum tuntas serta dapat berguna sebagai media dalam menyampaikan dan mengumpulkan tugas-tugas yang di berikan.<br />Kata kunci : E-learning, Internet, Online
