TEACHING STRATEGIES USED IN EMERGENCY ONLINE TEACHING IN FRONT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: Mathematics teaching practices developed in schools in Alagoas.

Emergency Online Teaching; Teacher Education; Didactic Strategies; Mathematics Teaching.

The Covid-19 pandemic affected all sectors of society in different countries, regardless of their wealth or political regime. In education, due to the social isolation and indefinite closure of school units, families have delegated the role of mediating knowledge for their children in partnership with a school that was far from what we had previously conceived. Teachers, on the other hand, had to revisit their pedagogical practices, "relearning how to teach", motivated above all by the goals of reaching, engaging, and keeping the largest possible number of
students in their online classes. The study aims to answer the following problem: what didactic strategies mediated by Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC) were used by teachers in the Emergency Online Teaching (EOE) in mathematics classes for high school classes in the Alagoas State Public Education Network? And what factors contributed to the development of these strategies? The research has as locus school units of the Alagoas State Public Education Network, whose work occurred according to the Special Scheme of Non-Presential School Activities (REAENP), determined in Ordinance /SEDUC No. 4.904/2020 that regulated the pedagogical activities of the network throughout social isolation. The research reveals how the TDICs were used to mediate the teaching and learning processes for students who were about to leave High School, and face the National High School Exam (ENEM) and/or the job market, requiring the mastery of skills that would allow them to succeed in their choices - whether academic and/or professional. The results bring innovative and effective pedagogical strategies to an online and/or hybrid teaching context. When the teacher
improves the way he or she teaches, he or she also contributes to the improvement of student learning, increasing expectations and perspectives of human development. Competent citizens can intervene in the reality in which they are inserted, which in the medium and long term impacts the social and economic sectors of the state and even the country. The results may be a reference for future research on didactic strategies that can be developed, improved, or banned in an online teaching context even after the coronavirus pandemic.
