O ensino e a aprendizagem não cabem em algoritmos: relato docente sobre o fetiche da inteligência artificial

Abstract

This is a teaching experience report on the “Ethics and information” course at a federal university. Its first section describes its theoretical foundation, based on Álvaro Vieira Pinto’s cybernetics and the political economy of information and communication. Its second section discusses the course participatory methodology inspired by Paulo Freire (Vieira Pinto’s student), which resorted to multimedia didactic, self-assessment, dozens of student seminars, and a final open essay. As its main result, dialogic education confirms students’ unreasonable fascination with texts generated by artificial intelligence, along with the unpreparedness of the institution to address this new challenge.
