Las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (tic) y su impacto en el desarrollo emocional y socio familiar en la infancia

Abstract

In contemporary societies, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are considered a cross-cutting element of human life, whose influence extends to both urban and rural areas. This is the case of the Buenos Aires Educational Institution, located in the rural area of ​​the municipality of Palestina, Huila. This document presents a research exercise aimed at analyzing the impact of ICTs on the children in the multi-grade classroom of this institution, especially regarding their emotional and socio-familial dimensions. It is necessary to develop an approach that recognizes the family environment as a fundamental component not only for strengthening academic and social skills, but also for the emotional and familial well-being of the children. This approach allows for the identification of new forms of socio-educational intervention aimed at a child population that, in addition to being constant users of ICTs, has the family as its primary socializing agent. This research is framed within the action research (AR) methodology. Its purpose is not only to analyze the relationship between information and communication technologies (ICTs) and the emotional and socio-family development of children, but also to formulate suggestions for socio-educational intervention that contribute to strengthening said development in the subjects of study.
