Particularities of the Use of Information and Communication Technologies in Education
Abstract
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have experienced impressive growth since the declaration of the pandemic and the forced closure of educational institutions in the world. This article is interested in the problem of ICTs in education in Latin America, focusing on gender inequality, the level of teacher training and Internet access; for this purpose, a non-experimental qualitative methodological approach was used, given that an empirical (inductive) analysis was carried out, it was found that the gender digital gap is still a recurrent factor, which limits and conditions not only education but also the labor future of women, and it was also noted that teacher training still needs to be approached from other perspectives given the exogenous nature of ICT in education. Finally, the difficulty of access to the Internet in the region is evident, which invites us to think of strategies to overcome these inequalities and problems.
