Abstract

The present work intends to identify the contributions that information and communication technologies make in the teaching and learning process of the curricular component of Religious Education in the municipality of Serra, in the State of Espírito Santo. In this way, the study seeks to answer the following research question: What are the contributions that information and communication technologies can provide in the teaching and learning process of the curricular component of Religious Education in schools located in the municipality of Serra/ES? In order to reach the proposed objective and respond to the formulated research question, the present work adopted the methodology of bibliographic research and field research. The present theme is justified due to its relevance and timeliness, considering that, in contemporary times, we live in the technological era, in which digital resources are increasingly present in the daily lives of all individuals, in different areas . In addition, it is justified as a result of the need to understand the importance of using technologies in the teaching and learning process, with emphasis on Religious Education, considering the difficulties of students and teachers with this curricular component (lack of interest on the part of students, very theoretical classes, not very dynamic, etc.). It was concluded that information and communication technologies should be inserted in the context of Religious Education classes, considering that they are capable of increasing the level of interest and motivation of students; provide greater satisfaction and autonomy in learning; improve the effectiveness and quality of teaching; promote interaction between teachers and students; and equip the course content with flexibility.
