And it is linked to the research line Information Technology Applied to Education, of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Rio Grande do Sul, Campus Porto Alegre. The theme of this dissertation is “Remote Teaching(from a distance) in the period of the Covid-19 Pandemic”. As problematic we have the formulation of the following question: how can the Google Classroom Software collaborate in the quality of the teaching and learning process and impact on the Teaching of the Federal Public Higher Education network? In sequence, we aim to analyze how Google Classroom was used at UFES for the implementation of remote teaching. Thus, this study is justified due to the importance of verifying the teaching and learning process through this tool and if it is a resource that positively influences the quality, in relation to teaching practice, in order to suggest its use for other educational institutions, as a proposal for use as a support technology for face-to-face teaching. This case study research has a qualitative approach and an applied nature, and it concludes that the use of Google Classroom was viable in remote teaching and could collaborate in enhancing quality in education, in a hybrid teaching proposal, in education higher.
