Use of technologies in school

Stop Motion as a teaching and learning tool

Abstract

The objective of this article is to point out how the advances of technologies can be assimilated in the school and in the students' literacy process. The adopted methodology is characterized as qualitative based on bibliographic, exploratory and descriptive research. This article is justified by the perspectives pointed out around teaching, encouraging the creativity and expression of the students and bringing contribution to the teachers and the academy, regarding the observations about literacy, the use of the technologies and the importance of thinking about new approaches within schools. It was concluded that Stop Motion, as a pedagogical tool, is a technique of artisanal context, which requires planning and creativity by its performers to attract the spectators. Stop Motion constitutes an opportunity to explore the multiliteracy of the students, provoking reflection on exploited content, since it requires a study of the thematic and planning for the construction of the product. It was possible to verify that the use of ICT in schools can be assimilated through projects and activities that relate their use to the contents to be addressed. There is scope for bringing ICT closer to the school environment, and the applicability of Stop Motion is a useful and accessible tool.
