Actions implemented in the remote system offered by a school in the municipal education system of Brumadinho/MG to guarantee the continuity of education in response to the pandemic

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought numerous challenges to all sectors, in Brazil and worldwide. In an attempt to reduce the widespread spread of the new Coronavirus, actions of social detachment were adopted. In education, social detachment caused the suspension of the regular functioning of educational institutions. The aim of this study is to discuss the effectiveness of the actions implemented in the remote study regime to guarantee the continuity of education in response to the pandemic by the Municipal Education System of Brumadinho / MG. To this end, a case study was carried out in a municipal school, located at the headquarters of the municipality that serves the final years of elementary school. Among the main results, it was possible to verify that the activity notebooks used in the remote study regime were considered by students and teachers as an important tool in the conduct of teaching. However, there are points that need to be reviewed in order to seek more effective learning in this type of teaching.
