NOTES ON DIGITAL SKILLS FOR THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHERS AND THE POSSIBILITIES OF METAVERSE FOR EDUCATION

Abstract

This text aims to discuss the pedagogical work of teachers, the informational and digital competence that teachers need for their professional development, and the pedagogical practices they develop. Discusses in a dialectical and critical way the relationship between the BNCC’s digital competence that must be worked on and consolidated until the end of Basic Education and the informational and digital competence that teachers need to have for their professional development. The concept of metaverse is demonstrated and how it adapts to innovative educational practices. To this end, a brief systematic literature review was carried out, analyzed from a qualitative perspective, situating teaching methodologies and educational possibilities in the texts selected from the studied bases. Therefore, it was concluded that it is important not only to offer continuing training to teachers, but to guarantee this training, aiming to qualify them for professional practice, based on the use of digital technologies that provide informational skills.
