SUMMARY:

Considering that the school, nowadays, is experiencing the scenario of technological innovations, with the impulse of new digital and intelligent technologies, incorporating new forms of thoughts, organization and constructions, the aggregation of objects to the Internet, in an intelligent and sensorial way, called the Internet of Things (IoT), from the English Internet of Things, is already present in educational environments, and its expansion and complexity are seen as a technological revolution and challenging for educational institutions. In view of this, the objective of the research was to analyze the experiences of the application of IoT, in two municipal public schools, of elementary education, in the state of Bahia. A qualitative, descriptive and analytical method was adopted, focusing on the analysis of the empirical study. In this context, the research was outlined through the detailed description of the data and the analysis of what was surveyed in physical and virtual environments, and in the study of the empirical field to understand the characteristics, applicability, possibilities and challenges of IoT, outlining it in the field educational. The two schools studied were the Centro Municipal de Educação Professor Paulo Freire (CAIC), in the city of Vitória da Conquista - BA, and the Escola Municipal João Pereira Vasconcelos, located in the city of Mata de São João - BA. We selected three teachers and the director of the two schools to learn about their perceptions of the application of IoT, the relationships of this technology with educational practices and teaching-learning processes, through semi-structured interviews, with the purpose of understanding the perspectives and consequences of IoT advances in the school environment, including data security and privacy issues. The results of this study indicate that IoT is an object of attention in education, it brings new possibilities to the educational context, transforms communication, habits, skills and learning in the school community, transcending the use of only a technological device, or an automated space, or a smart environment. It was possible to perceive that the course of technology in schools needs to be more closely monitored and inserted in the context of teachers as well, who need to participate in the whole process. It was verified that it is essential to have a favorable and democratic environment in schools, with infrastructure, guarantee of the law, transparency for the use of IoT elements in their spaces, to guarantee that the data captured, within their spaces, are not used for purposes other than supposedly educational purposes.
