WTIC: workshop sobre tecnologias da informação e comunicação

Abstract

The WTIc (Workshop on Information and Communication Technologies) is an extension project linked to the Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science at the Federal University of Jataí, with the aim of improving the technical knowledge of students, administrative-technicians, professors and outsourced workers at UFJ and other educational institutions and professionals from the communityof Jataí and region, in relation to the current ITc (Information and Communication Technologies) available on the market. Since 2014 this project has offered face-to-face workshops, as suggested by both the academic community and the external community. However, with the new needs arising from the Covid-19 confrontation, WTIc reinvented itself and started to give workshops online, using Google Classroom and Google Meet. This initiative came from the WTIc team who realizedthis emerging need from the targetaudience of the project, who was eager to participate in quality and free courses on information and communication technologies. So far, there is one course in progress, in this new format and three courses in preparation, as well as suggestions under analysis for upcoming courses.
