Sumario:[EN] The aim of this research is to contribute to find new ways of teaching using the opportunities that Communication and information technology(ICT) give today. This contribution proposes a teaching strategy that allows students to think in a creative way and integrate technology in elementary school. This strategy consist in making the teacher student think themselves as inventors, detecting a need in society, designing and developing an invention that has not been yet patented. Creating marketing strategies for selling the product and presenting all this work in class for peers and teachers to evaluate. It was applied to student teachers during the period 2012- 2015 in a three month Seminary about the use of Technology at School. Surveys show that they are highly motivated with the methodology used at the Seminary and satisfied with the process. Most of them think that it is very useful when planning classroom work for children in elementary school. Presentations done for the seminary showed that the teacher students develop significant learning and many skills using information and communication technology (ICT) for learning purposes.
