Abstract
The teaching-learning process of the Physical Education career at the undergraduate level was drastically affected by the period of the Covid-19 pandemic, but it stood out for the performance of the teachers who sought the support of Information Technologies and Communication (TIC's) to continue the educational process with distance classes. The Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic abruptly affected the world population between 2020 and 2021, leaving a trail of respiratory injuries and mortality of approximately 14.9 million people worldwide, according to a survey by the Organization World Health Organization (OPAS, 2022). Faced with this new situation, public and private education faced three critical problems: institutional infrastructure, access to educational content, and the scarcity of technological resources. Most of the teachers were not used to manipulating the TICs to teach classes. On average, in one week they were already carrying out their first amateur transmissions of distance courses via the Internet, using the most diverse tools at their disposal. To measure the behavior of primary, secondary, and university teachers when they are forced to use TICs as tools to help in distance classes, a quantitative survey was conducted in four countries, namely Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Spain, questioning voluntary participants about the use of TIC's in three moments of the pandemic period: before, during and after. As a result of the tabulation and statistical analysis of the data collected, the little or no use of the TIC before the pandemic stands out, and after the pandemic period, university professors had fewer problems in handling the TIC tools, however, all groups of teachers were unanimous in indicating that they will incorporate the use of TIC in their teaching-learning methodology and the search for new opportunities for socialization between academics, teachers and the community.
