Abstract

Technology is a strong educational tool, when used well, it enhances teaching practice, and makes the student the protagonist of learning, the teacher who seeks to use technology in his classes, demonstrates progress and commitment to the new, teaching about Africa and Slavery in Brazil, becomes a challenge that can be overcome with the union between technology and teaching mastery of the content presented. Teaching is a privilege, mastering the subject and technologies is an enabler of teaching and learning in Brazilian education. This work addresses the topic of Africa and slavery in Brazil, as well as the laws that regulate them, based on the assumption that teaching practice involves the teacher having mastery over the topic in question and qualifying to teach a very important topic. Throughout the chapters, the importance of teaching African History in the training of students who will work in regular education is taken into account. The main theme of this work is to address TDICs in the teaching of African History and Culture, pointing out their benefits and challenges. Another important point involves the use of TDICS to teach about the slavery of Africans in Brazil and how this extremely important topic should be approached so that teaching practice can achieve the proposed objectives. Finally, the debate revolves around the use of existing digital resources, such as applications, websites, games, etc., all aimed at education and teaching the History of Africa and Slavery in Brazil. The importance of teachers using these resources to enrich and include their students in classes is debated.
