Implementación de una estrategia de capacitación en competencias TIC dirigida a los docentes del Área de Humanidades de la sede Central de la Institución Educativa Técnico Industrial “Julio Flórez” de Chiquinquirá, Boyacá

Abstract

This qualitative research focuses on Competencies in the use and appropriation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as the fundamental axis for the professional development of teachers who face the challenge of assuming the education of the society of information in the 21st century. Its purpose was to strengthen ICT skills through a training strategy for teachers in the Humanities area of headquarters at Industrial Technical Julio Flórez in Chiquinquirá. The problem that gave rise to this project was the analysis of the comparison of the results in the Saber 11 tests in three consecutive years where low performance was evidenced with respect to the national trend in the levels of proficiency in English and critical reading. The diagnosis on the knowledge and use of ICT by teachers resulted in barely basic levels of competences, so a training strategy was designed structured in an instructional design with an emphasis on challenge-based learning that was implemented to develop both in person and through a Virtual Learning Environment. The results obtained show that the proposed objectives were fully achieved with the benefit of the participating population, who were able to familiarize themselves with cutting-edge technological tools that could integrate their pedagogical practices and innovate in their teaching work and thus contribute to improving performance of your students.
