Educational technologies in the context of the Primary School

Abstract

The article shows a study about the integration of computer technologies in the teaching-learning process of Primary Education in Cuba. It highlights the importance of using their potential to propose a didactic-methodological approach to the use of virtual learning environments as a tool that favors the integration of technologies in the process, taking into account their possibilities, characteristics and advantages. This approach constitutes a fundamental pillar of the present study, since in the Primary School Model that governs the pedagogical and didactic-methodological work in the country, the need for the integration of informatics as a resource for school learning is stated. However, the most recent national research has not yet provided precise answers demonstrating how the qualities, components, relationships and regularities that particularize the integration of technologies as a resource, and with it the interrelation of the contents of the programs of action, emerge from praxis. studies, by efficiently using learning tools that promote the academic use of these, as well as the integral development of primary school children.
