With the virtualization of teaching, especially in primary and
secondary education, which is one of the characteristics of the so-called
post-pandemic "new normal", the difficulty for teachers to provide new
learning experiences beyond lectures, and the difficulty for students to find
content on event websites that is relevant to the subjects they learned in the
classroom. This work develops a platform that helps students and teachers
to find online or face-to-face events that have some relation with the subjects
exposed in the classes through a filter. The platform consists of a frontend
application that makes requests to a Rest API responsible for obtaining event
information on the websites https://www.sympla.com.br and
http://www.feirasdobrasil.com.br. The difference in the development of this
system is the use of web scraping to obtain event information, that is, using
the crawlers technique to go through the pages and subpages of the
proposed sites and collect the necessary information about an event. In this
way, users always have up-to-date information on events, with no risk of
redundancy or outdated information.
