Abstract

Mentoring is a didactic-pedagogical program promoted by higher education institutions, the aim of which is to improve the quality of teaching and professional and academic development. In this program, students who are more advanced in their degree and are supervised by an advisor pass on their knowledge acquired during their degree to the students being monitored, thus contributing to the teaching-learning process. Faced with the scenario caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, different teaching methods have been adopted by educational institutions around the world and remote teaching has been adopted as a strategy to continue these activities. The aim of this research is to analyze the academic contribution of monitoring for monitors at the São Cristóvão campus during remote teaching. In addition, specific objectives were formulated which include describing how the São Cristóvão Campus tutoring program works during remote teaching, analyzing the tutors' perception of the influence of tutoring on their professional and academic training, and identifying the positive and negative aspects of the teachinglearning process during tutoring in remote teaching. The methodological approach used in the research is descriptive with a quantitative approach. To obtain the necessary data, the case study method was used, which aims to achieve the objectives proposed in the work and learn more about the characteristics of monitoring. In conclusion, it was noted that monitoring during remote teaching was considered a good experience, as it allowed monitors to put their knowledge into practice, help students and learn more, as well as providing a diversity of experiences.
