Abstract

The legitimation of distance learning for Basic Education, in the direction of the same phenomenon for Higher Education, during the COVID-19 pandemic, brings up a discussion prior to the virus, but present since the 2018 presidential campaign by the current Brazilian government: the regularization of distance learning for Basic Education.  Faced with several uncertainties, this paper presents, from the analysis of three documents that regulated, in an extraordinary character, the distance learning and the modification in the school days of 2020, the argumentation used by both:  the national documents and the state document on the topic, under a emphasis for the state of Rio de Janeiro.  Such guidelines provide a kind of “laboratory” for future implementations, definitively, of this type of teaching for Basic Education and its expansion to Higher Education.  In order to observe some experiences of school activity in the distance learning during the period of social distance, it was chosen to analyze documents and publication on websites and social networks:  two federal institutions of Basic Education located in the state of Rio de Janeiro; from the State Secretariat of Education of the state of Rio de Janeiro; the prefectures of two municipalities also in the state of Rio de Janeiro.  We conclude that the discourse that technology represents the modernization of teaching practices is legitimized, at the same time this it ratifies the process of scrapping Basic Education, especially public, expanding inequalities and social exclusion through digital exclusion.
