It is noticed that many researchers have dialogued about the importance of Information and Communication Technologies in the pedagogical practices of the educators, as well as Educational Informatics classes have been increasing taking place in schools of some cities. However, little research has been done on the effective praxis of these educators towards the technologies in their pedagogical practices. Therefore, this research project emerges from the need to analyze how the Information and Communication Technologies are present in the pedagogical practices of educators of the Educational Informatics classrooms. Which technological artifacts are used? What is the view of educators regarding the relevance of these technologies in the teaching-learning process? Also, to identify how theory and practice dialogue in this process. This work investigated teachers responsible for teaching Informatics in schools of the city of São Paulo, Brazil, in Primary School, Elementary School, High School and Youth and Adult Education classes. They are Elementary School teachers assigned to develop activities in specific classrooms with individualized computers for each student. To achieve the objectives listed, quantitative and qualitative registration techniques were used. During the investigation, it was taken into account that educators are social beings, who have a historical and transformative role.
