E-Readiness is the level of readiness that a person needs to understand and apply information and communication technology. E-Readiness can also be interpreted as readiness to sort, interpret, and process digital knowledge. E-Readiness is very important for students to be able to take part in online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to describe the level of E-Readiness in learning biology for high school students in West Lombok Regency in participating in online learning of biology subjects. This study uses a quantitative descriptive research method. The instrument used to obtain student E-Readiness data is the E-Readiness questionnaire. Data collection was carried out using a survey technique by distributing questionnaires using the google form application. The number of respondents who filled out the questionnaire was 622 students. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistical analysis techniques that refer to the An Integration Information Rich E-Readiness Assessment Tool evaluation model. Data analysis using the evaluation model was carried out on each indicator of the E-readiness segment. The results of data analysis found that: (1) Enterprise E-Readiness segment 79.88% ready; (2) ICT readiness segment 82.96 ready; (3) Human resources readiness 83.88 ready, 4. Information readiness segment, 70.72% ready, and 5. External environment readiness 84.42% is ready.

<p align="justify"><span class="fontstyle0">The pedagogical strategy most used today to arouse students’ interest in classes is the use of technological resources. Portuguese language teaching has also adopted it. For this reason, this qualitative research aims to verify whether the insertion of Information and Communication Technology in the Portuguese language discipline influences students’ learning. Meetings were held, in a pedagogical environment, with students from two high school classes at the IFPB, Campus Campina Grande, in the academic year of 2019. Pedagogical activities were carried out, with and without the use of technological resources, which included the contents of reading and interpretation of chronicles, as well as the production of micro fictions. The main result obtained indicated that the use of technological resources can influence the pedagogical process, as well as the academic performance of students, in a positive way. In addition to that, students were more attentive and participated more actively in class. There was also an improvement in the student-student ratio due to the activities proposed. </span></p>
