REFLECTIONS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF ICT: ANALYSIS OF STUDENT PERCEPTIONS IN INITIAL TEACHER TRAINING

Abstract

Education accompanied using technology allows enriching the teaching-learning processes. In this sense, the role of the teacher is essential because technology by itself does not generate learning, someone who guides and accompanies this process with a pedagogical, critical, and reflective sense is needed. This article reflects on the perceptions of Initial Education students of the National University of Education - UNAE of Ecuador, regarding the importance of ICT in their teacher training; a quantitative methodology with a descriptive nature was used. The findings reflect the importance of the curricula of studies having learning results and minimum contents that respond to the students of the Information and Knowledge Society.
