نبذة مختصرة : The technological and digital society requires people and knowledges together for mutual co-operation, so that to solve complex problems in a world where the access to information is nearly immediate. In this context, professors and students at a public university in the master’s degree course called Ensino na Saúde (the learning about health), and others in the Técnico em Redes de Computadores (technical expert in computer networks) course at a federal institute, both in the state of Ceará, Brazil, published the blog Saúde na Era Digital (health in the digital era), aiming the health education for the general public. The interaction with visitors comments was submitted to the content analysis and three thematic axes emerged: balanced/appropriate use of information and communication technology (ICT); its benefits to health; and its damage. The positive aspects of the experience were specified: different educational resources used by the blog; overcoming obstacle of time-space; learning cooperative environment; blog for learning; and community gain in health education from the integration graduate-postgraduate-teaching. A difficulty of some people to handle these ICT was observed. ICT are recommended for current, contextualized and interdisciplinary educational practices.
