The existence of innovative teachers in the use of ICTs

This book aims to understand and describe how the pedagogical practices occur in the 1st semester of the Information Systems Course at the Higher Education Institution (HEI), specifically in the discipline of Algorithms and Programming. To this end, documents, concepts, methods and, mainly, observations regarding the dynamics of the classroom in the academic field were analysed. In this way, the use of technology, in the pedagogical context, becomes present and necessary, since, in antiquity, until the beginning of the 19th century, a traditionalist type of learning predominated in pedagogical practice. In this investigation, an ethnographic methodology was used, in order to understand how the teachers of the Information Systems Course break the paradigms of traditional teaching and organize the educational environment in order to promote innovative pedagogical practices with the students, contributing to their autonomous learning.
