Resumo:This article aims to investigate what were the challenges and solutions to reinvent teaching in Higher Education, in the face of the overwhelming scenario of contamination by COVID-19, using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Data were collected by an electronic questionnaire and interviews. The survey was answered by 41 students. The information was systematized and analyzed using the content analysis that was proposed by Bardin (2010), it is possible to identify three categories: 1) Application of ICTs in the teaching and learning processes, 2) Pedagogical mediations that were necessary for the students’ development and 3) Students’ autonomy. The results revealed that many students underutilized digital technologies and that the pandemic provided opportunities for attitudinal changes. Teachers had to reinvent didactic strategies for remote teaching, as well as the use of ICTs in collaborative spaces that fostered empowerment, autonomy and intellectual emancipation in the students.
