In order to investigate how postgraduate students of Mathematics and Science Education address Social Representations (SR) of the framework known as Humans-with-Media (HwM), we conducted a questionnaires survey to understand the evocations/ideas that came up during synchronous and asynchronous learning in a virtual classroom, following the guidelines of Emergency Remote Education (ERE), in a stricto sensu postgraduate program. In regards to the theoretical construction, topics related to humans and technology (media) are discussed under reciprocal conditions of influence, in which one modifies or permeates the other in the process of knowledge production, which is often evoked by ‘thinking with’. Thus, we dug into the constituent elements of these SR that emerged through the evocations, and some answers were analyzed based on the Discourse of the Collective Subject (DCS). Results suggest that the HwM construct relies on two bigger pictures/notions: utilitarianism and supplementation of human capacities, and the symbiosis between human and non-human agents.
