SUMMARY:

This research refers to the Master's Thesis of the Graduate Program in Education - PPGEd at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. It arose in the face of the new challenges that the education system in our country has faced and continues to face, exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic scenario, which led to the suspension of in-person activities and sparked the need to rethink pedagogical practices, with the insertion of digital technologies into their contexts in such an intense manner, causing us to rework concepts and reframe practices in the learning contexts in which children are immersed. Thus, our general objective is to investigate how digital information and communication technologies (DICT) are being highlighted in the curriculum and pedagogical practice of a Municipal Early Childhood Education Center in the Municipal Education Network of Natal/RN, and specifically: to identify the treatment given to digital information and communication technologies (DICT) in the curriculum; to analyze the perceptions of early childhood educators regarding the use of digital information and communication technologies (DICT) in teaching practice; and to contribute to the discussion on digital information and communication technologies (DICT) as a language to be experienced in the Early Childhood Education curriculum. As this is a descriptive and exploratory case study, we will use questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, focusing on the interpretations of the context in which the research participants are embedded, relating the use of digital information and communication technologies to their pedagogical practice. The research was conducted with early childhood educators working in four preschool classes, the pedagogical coordination, the pedagogical management, and the administrative management of a Child Education Center in the Municipal Network of Natal, RN. Along the way, we examined the interests in participating in the research, verified the characteristics, expectations, and receptiveness to the data collection methodology, as well as the procedures and techniques used throughout the entire investigation. We also requested the following documentation for analysis: Political-Pedagogical Project, records of planning and practices that were documented, and finally, we conducted Content Analysis based on the floating reading of the collected data. According to the initial impressions, we highlighted the indices/themes that stood out the most in the reading of the documents to develop the system of categories and subcategories that guided the data analysis. The research contributed to the discussions on the use of digital technologies in teaching and learning processes, and it also enabled reflection on the thinking about innovation in education for the use of technologies in practice.
