ABSTRACT
This article investigates the unequal conditions of digital access among students in the current pandemic context. The objective is to understand digital access as a cultural capital that generates privileges in a context whose 'teaching modality' is remote. The hypothesis assessed assumes that the stratification of access to digitally based technologies works as a mechanism through which school inequalities would widen. Empirically, the article focuses on the socioeconomic conditions of internet access, use of smartphones, tablets and / or computers among high school students at the Escola de Aplicacao/UFPA. The data used in the elaboration of the analyzes that support this research come from a questionnaire, the result of which reveals the precariousness of access to digital resources by a significant portion of these students. The article concludes that the developments of Covid-19, above all, for the empirical field analyzed, suppose the gap in the link between social origin and school inequalities.
