A global survey conducted by Google in partnership with Ipsos revealed that Brazil is above the global average in the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI). According to the survey, 54% of Brazilians claim to use this technology, reflecting how the country has advanced in integrating technological tools across various sectors, including education.
In the school environment, parents and educators face doubts about how to balance the use of these tools with other activities that promote development, such as manual practices. In this scenario, technology, when well utilized, can be a powerful ally to expand access to information and enhance learning, especially in the context of "Digital Culture," one of the ten essential skills defined by the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC).
With technology, students have quick and easy access to a wide variety of educational resources. Digital platforms and the internet allow the exploration of content that complements school learning, expanding knowledge beyond textbooks.
Furthermore, personalized teaching is a major advancement provided by technological tools. Adaptive platforms adjust content to individual needs, allowing students to learn at their own pace. Marco Giroto, founder of the SuperGeeks franchise network, emphasizes: "Life without technology no longer exists. The goal now is to use all of this in an increasingly assertive way. Everything is done with good guidance and specific methodology."
Technological resources make learning more dynamic and engaging, using educational games, interactive videos, and simulations. These tools not only pique students' interest but also help develop essential skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration.
Ítalo Pereira, technical-pedagogical coordinator at SuperGeeks, reinforces: “When students have access to quality technological resources, they not only learn the content, but also skills that will be indispensable in the job market and in life”.
The franchise network is a practical example of how technology can democratize education. The school, a pioneer in programming and robotics education in Brazil, serves students of all ages and needs, with accessible courses that include adaptations for people with visual, motor, or cognitive disabilities.
“Technology is not just a tool, but a facilitator of inclusion. Our goal is to ensure that anyone, regardless of their circumstances, can explore the digital universe and develop fully,” adds Giroto.
As technology advances, its role in transforming education becomes increasingly evident. The strategic use of digital tools not only democratizes knowledge but also contributes to the formation of a more egalitarian society prepared for future challenges.
