ABSTRACT
The purpose of this investigation was to analyze professional challenges faced by Brazilian teachers teaching remotely in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.The quantitative method was applied via Multiple Logistic Regression, using the 15.0 version of the Stata Software. The study was conducted with 258 education professionals working from home. A significant number of teachers described themselves as being unprepared to cope with remote teaching (26.8%). A greater percentage stated their enthusiasm for learning new technologies (70.2%), despite an increased workload (77.5%);still, 61.4% indicated that student absence had increased. The impact of the new working conditions on the participating teachers' performance revealed to be attenuated by such variables as educational level;pleasant work environment, including flexibility and well-being;tolerance to meetings and training sessions;perception of productivity;and professional identity. The results indicate that post-pandemic educational policies should foster participation as well as consider inequalities and issues of access to information and communications technologies, with attention to vulnerable groups of students and the necessary professional enhancement and appreciation of teachers.
