The statistical process of the information was realized the frequencies and percentages being calculated by indicators, dimensions of every variable. He results threw a considerable use of the TIC in the learning colaborativo, with 68 %. The correlation gave like proved a value of 0,15, which indicates that there exists positive weak correlation between the TIC and the Learning Colaborative. One concluded that the teachers possess knowledge it brings over of the TIC and they show disposition in applying the above mentioned technologies in the learning colaborative, though in an eventual way.
