Resumo

Objetivos: Avaliar a percepção dos estudantes de Odontologia sobre o uso das mídias sociais no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Métodos: Um questionário foi aplicado aos estudantes do sexto ao oitavo período, contendo 14 perguntas sobre acesso à internet, redes sociais, tempo de uso, finalidades, benefícios e malefícios, além do uso das mídias no processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Foram utilizados dados de frequência e o teste qui-quadrado para comparação entre os gêneros. As questões abertas foram avaliadas qualitativamente. Resultados. Dos 85 estudantes avaliados, 77,6% eram do gênero feminino, com idade média de 23,1 anos. Dos alunos participantes, todos possuíam acesso à internet e relataram usar WhatsApp e Instagram. Em relação ao tempo de uso, 36,5% afirmaram fazer uso dessas mídias há mais de 10 anos. Quanto à finalidade do uso dessas mídias, 65,9% relataram o uso para aprendizado odontológico. Como benefício, 81,2% apresentaram a troca de opiniões sobre assuntos diversos e 83,5% destacaram a distração ao estudar como principal malefício. Não houve diferença significativa entre os gêneros. Conclusão: As mídias sociais são vistas positivamente no aprendizado por oferecerem recursos adicionais, mas o tempo excessivo é um ponto negativo, sendo essencial equilibrar a produtividade e o uso saudável para evitar o risco de vício.
