Descripción
Sumario:The incorporation of information and communications technologies in educational processes is important because it stimulates the teacher-student relationship. This article analyzes the relevance of virtual learning objects for mediating the learning process. The study uses a mixed methodological design. It starts out by describing and reflecting upon the results of the traditional teaching practices used at the Manuel De Jesús Escorcia School. The study population is comprised by the 5th grade students at the school. Information collection instruments were used to learn about the perceptions of teachers on the subject of the study. The results indicate that the strategy of using ICT improves the students’ reading comprehension. The conclusion is that it is relevant for teachers to design didactic-pedagogical strategies, leaving the door open to use them in other fields of knowledge.
