Las TIC como herramienta didáctica en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje en segundo y cuarto año de Educación General Básica en dos Instituciones Educativas durante el tiempo de pandemia por la Covid-19

Abstract

The work analyzes the uses of ICT as a didactic tool in the teaching and learning process in the second and fourth year of basic general education in two educational institutions during the time of the covid-19 pandemic. The change towards virtual education generated difficulties since most teachers were unaware of the resources that technological means currently provide. In the investigation it was possible to determine that during the time of virtual education the teachers learned to use some platforms such as Canva, PowerPoint, Geniality, YouTube videos with the purpose that the teaching does not bother the student but rather that it arouses interest in learn in an engaging and creative way. In the hybrid modality they continued to use the same resources and games taken from educational platforms. This use practically ended when the face-to-face modality was returned. Teachers returned to using printed materials and put ICT resources aside despite the positive results they did achieve with the use of these platforms. The students, when asked how they feel when they return to face-to-face again, answered that they are happy because they meet their classmates and their teachers. They also feel discouraged from picking up a notebook and writing again and because they left their computers at home
