Abstract

The paper presents the experience of teacher training conducted under the Mais Educação (More Education) Program from the Ministry of Education, Brazil, and attended by a group of public school teachers in the state of Ceará in order to learn about digital technologies and new literacies. The course was developed in two units; the first one addressed conceptual elements related to teacher identity in transition and their new professional roles, the dissonance between the paradigm of cyberspace and the space-time of schools. The second unit featured a review of a practical experience in the use of digital technologies for educational purposes on a learning project developed in partnership with the University of Michigan, U.S.A., based on the contrasting experiences of two teachers. The course established reflexive dialogues with participating teachers, contributing to their understanding of the dilemmas and possible ways of acting in the Program to promote improved educational use of digital technologies.

Keywords: Teacher training; Digital technologies; Integral education.
