Abstract

This article aims to describe the perception of students enrolled in the discipline Numerical Calculation, considering the use of integrated communication and collaboration solutions, using the tools of the G Suite for Education, in relation to the learning conditions, in the engineering courses offered by the University Tiradentes in the city of Aracaju in the state of Sergipe / Brazil. The results reveal that one of the biggest changes in the methodology of the class was the elimination of the delivery of printed works, which was possible with the use of Google Classroom. In addition to this change, tools that were executed through the G Suite for Education package stand out in this work. The research shows the ease of communication and interaction with the teacher and other students, the dynamics of delivery and the discussion of the results of the proposed activities. In addition to building collaborative activities, because, even though they are not physically together, student groups developed and commented on problem solving simultaneously, in the same file, in a shared and collaborative way. The research revealed that through the G Suite, students are more involved with the discipline and, consequently, with their training.
