Abstract

This research has as theme the teaching and learning processes mediated by digital technologies aimed at young people undergoing oncological treatment. In this context, between 2015 and 2020 the authors developed a project called “learning with technologies workshop” in which patients' writing, reading, and logical reasoning skills were developed, using mobile devices tablets. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the workshops were interrupted. In 2023, the authors resumed the project, now orientated by new trends in post COVID-19 education with technologies. Therefore, this chapter aims to discuss the trends prior and post COVID-19, identifying changes made to this research by analyzing an experience report of the new model of workshops developed in 2023. The results show that, in comparison, pre COVID-19 workshops were centered in individual tasks with little to no autonomy. In contrast, in post COVID-19 workshops students were incentivized to learn with autonomy, creativity, and citizenship in a digital culture.
