NOBREGA, Thaynan Escarião da et al. Use of ICT as tool in the histology teaching in undergraduate degree in dentistry in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil. Rev. iberoam. tecnol. educ. educ. tecnol. [online]. 2018, n.22, pp.63-72. ISSN 1851-0086.
The Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) may help in the teaching process because of the better interactivity, which encourage the self-learning. The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence and use of ICT as a complementary tool in the histology teaching in undergraduate degree in dentistry in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil. Evaluations were performed in 126 dentistry websites and online questionnaires were sent to the responsible for histology courses of undergraduate degree in dentistry. It was observed that the majority (88.1%) of the universities do not have histology websites and underuse ICT tools. Among the 15 histology websites available were found figures (33.3%), professor’s e-mail (30.0%), texts (10.0%), hypertext (6.7%), assignment (6.7%), other tools (6.7%), questionnaires (3.3%) and videos (3.3%). Those questionnaires sent only 10.3% were answered, of which two professors had ensured restricted website only for their students, and the others, despite of do not have the course's websites, they considered the ICT as important teaching support tools. It is concluded that the Dental Schools in the South and Southeast regions of Brazil have potential for the inclusion of ICT in the teaching of histology, however the use of these still less than ideal.
