SYSTEMATIC MAPPING OF SOCIAL TECHNOLOGIES IN BRAZIL: SUBSIDY FOR TEACHER EDUCATION AT THE INSTITUTO FEDERAL DE SERGIPE

Abstract

The debate on Social Technologies (ST) has reached various sectors of society, including
educational and research institutions. However, there are still few projects of this type produced in these
contexts and training aimed at the practical development of this type of intervention in Brazilian
communities is still lacking, which makes feasibility, especially in educational contexts, in which it is
necessary to plan and evaluate actions educational.
In this article, the ST are analyzed from the perspective of their application to Professional and
Technological Education, specifically at Federal Institutes. The results of a Systematic Mapping Study are
presented, which selected primary studies indicative of methodological aspects of the development of
concrete ST projects implemented in Brazilian communities. At the end of the mapping, 186 articles
(only 5.9% of the sample analyzed) showed the methodology applied to the development of ST. From
the discussion of the results of the mapping, a Thematic Analysis was conducted to qualitatively analyze
significant patterns of the data set that revealed methods and processes of ST production to systematize
an educational product of teacher training. The product proposed collaborative trails for the development
of ST appropriate to local specificities with the goal of developing a project in ST applicable to their fields
of activity at the Instituto Federal de Sergipe (IFS). As a way of applying and evaluating the educational
product, a Case Study was developed with teachers and technicians from IFS - Campus Lagarto, which
resulted in good prognoses of wider application.
