  • The challenges and difficulties imposed by the new coronavirus, demands reflection on its impacts on teaching practice, mainly due to the fact that teaching/learning activities share the same screens destined to entertainment, training and work activities, where disinformation also circulates. The Covid-19 outbreak and the response to it have been accompanied by an excess of information, some accurate and others not, known as infodemia. In this scenario, the objective of this article was to report the experience, in the field of Health Education, in the practices adopted in two remote teaching activities, with the use of different Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), considering elements of the reflections on education of Paulo Freire. The first was the extension course “Fake News is bad for your health? Reflections on the consumption of information in times of a pandemic ”, offered by the Instituto Nutes/UFRJ. After, the experience with the discipline “Curricular Planning and Teaching in the Health Area” of the Graduate Program in Science and Health Education (PPGECS / Nutes) is reported, which is compulsory offered to Master and Doctoral students of the Faculty of Medicine at UFRJ. In conclusion, some issues raised by these experiences are dealt with, such as the importance of developing a critical approach that considers the interaction between subjects who are located in the world and act as health and education professionals in search of the involvement of students, aiming at coping of the challenge that disinformation represents
