The COVID-19 pandemic led to the closure of Brazilian educational institutions in March 2020, resulting in a shift to virtual classes for almost all students. This abrupt transition disrupted social interaction and cooperation among students. In response, a research study focused on improving virtual classes using Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICT). The study proposed a four-step methodology: analyzing the impact of DICT on socio-emotional skills, designing and developing digital tasks to enhance social interaction, evaluating the effectiveness of these tasks through a questionnaire, and validating the methodology through qualitative analysis. The results showed that using DICT, combined with tailored pedagogical activities based on students' access to technology, aided in developing socio-emotional skills. Virtual classes positively affect students' organizational skills, empathy, and collaboration in group dynamics and individual activities.
