| Sumario: | This article discusses Digital Technologies (TD) and their use in the classroom, emphasizing the role of memes as a pedagogical potential to address current issues such as the Coronavirus. For this, research was carried out on scientific articles and analysis of memes shared on social networks. The memes analyzed are related to the themes: virus morphology, dissemination, disease symptoms, personal hygiene, risk group and relationship with other diseases. It was identified that memes have a transversal and interdisciplinary character that, through humor, addresses scientific information as well as, related to language, generating critical and reflective thinking. The study demonstrated that memes, as a digital genre, can be explored in the classroom, as they add DT to themes that cause social, political, cultural and economic impact; making the classes more attractive, capable of developing in students skills such as “reading in science”, thus making them scientifically literate. In addition, we realized that memes appear on the network from different perspectives and that when we analyze them we understand their content and information potential, which allows a deeper understanding of the subject about the new Coronavirus. |
