The Presence and Interference of Digital Device Use on the Information Apprehension of the Nursing Students (Face-to-Face) during the Covid-19 Pandemic

ABSTRACT

In contemporary times, traditional learning methods have been losing space to more innovative environments, demanding from the professor the insertion of more interactive strategies in the teaching and learning process, based on the dialogical relationship between the actors of the educational dynamic. The objective of this research was to understand the impact of the use of digital technologies on the apprehension of information, on the part of undergraduate nursing students (face-to-face), from private institutions, in the city of Palmas - TO, during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is a quanti-qualitative, descriptive, exploratory research. The adopted methodological procedures were specific literature review and questionnaire. The research revealed that during the period that universities were required to implement remote classes, students realized that these technologies are supports in the construction of knowledge and in the learning process. But some obstacles were determinant in this process, evidenced, mainly, by the precarious access to the internet and the non-adaptation to the methodology adopted by the professors in the remote modality.
