In the context of the pandemic that has forced online teaching, two variables are analyzed: training for employment and citizenship, and the impact of the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) on teachers’ autonomy and the effectiveness of their teaching. This article reflects on how to reconcile training for employment and citizenship in a world where jobs are disappearing due to the automation of production and the use of educational software in the classroom. It is therefore necessary to prevent algorithms and computer programs from replacing content and didactics, and not to fall into technological determinism as a means of improving teaching. Thus, the aim of this paper is to promote citizenship education and to reflect on the use of ICT as a means and not as an end. The method of analysis is based on ethnography, as the researcher is part of the study and records data through participant observation in the daily life of the school. In addition, a detailed record of the observed events was kept in a field diary.
