This series of events, which began in 2003, aims to promote and disseminate the use of new technologies in Education, with special emphasis on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). The XXVI edition of the Cycle of Lectures on New Technologies in Education will be carried out by the Interdisciplinary Center for New Technologies in Education (CINTED) in conjunction with the Post-Graduation Program in Informatics in Education of UFRGS, from September 17 to 19, 2018, in Porto Alegre - Rio Grande do Sul.
