Abstract

Due to the need for social distancing caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, education suffered a rupture in traditional patterns of student and teacher meetings in classrooms, which consequently led to a fraternal distancing between individuals. Such concerns were taken into account by Grupo PET Computação which, as a solution, conceived a platform capable of sustaining the link created by remote classroom teaching. To achieve this goal, the Discord Application was chosen, which with its various tools and friendly interface has become a virtual space for study and interaction for students and professors.
