It was perceived misuse of the Internet in the pedagogical performance, continuing the traditional method, which makes an approach involving the technological tools, the integration of curricular content to the Internet and possible resolution of students’ problems. Based on the data tabulated, opened up a range of possibilities for the teacher to rethink its planning and furthering the introduction of ICTs in the classroom. Therefore, it is necessary to start this preparation from the first series, not forgetting the value of the role of managers as organizers and coordinators of the modernization process of the school, suggesting strategies for the educational use of computers by the teacher, making it capable to handle the appeal within your practice and generate new knowledge.
