Abstract:
Through qualitative research, we analyzed the perception of educators of mathematics teachers regarding the integration of digital technologies as a pedagogical tool with licensure in mathematics. The data were gathered through interviews with six teacher educators from different Brazilian states. The Discourse of the Collective Subject was used for data analysis. According to the results obtained, the teacher educators argue that during the pre-service education of mathematics teachers, as many technological tools as possible should be introduced. They infer that, in the organization of curricular components, there should be moments for theoretical studies about the didactic use of technologies in basic education, as well as the development of practical activities using technological tools. The conclusion is that the practical experience of the interviewed teacher educators points to theoretical study as something indispensable; however, more time should be devoted to the development of practical activities that integrate teaching and new digital technologies.
