Abstract:

The objective of the research was to identify good practices in the use of technology with the purpose of disseminating its application and improving educational work. This is important due to technological development, which modified the way in which multiple daily activities, productive processes, recreational activities, and, above all, forms of communication are carried out. In the educational field, the different academic, administrative, and management processes have also been affected, and especially the teaching-learning process.

The use of technology in the teaching-learning process faces problems derived from the weak dissemination of this knowledge and the lack of synergy between the different actors, resulting in teachers having problems adapting to the use of technology. This is due to resistance to change, training deficiencies in the use of technology, and low self-esteem that generates frustration, detachment and distancing from any attempt to take advantage of ICT in their teaching activities.
The study analyses the diversity of applications of technology, such as: tools for projection, dissemination and simulation of phenomena through the use of artifacts or devices created for that purpose; the development and use of management systems for the monitoring and controlling learning; the management of administrative processes, repositories and documents; and the development of learning materials and objects that can be implemented as part of the educational process or as a support to it. This includes exchange possibilities at different stages of the process or between different educational processes with limited approaches to the use of technology and learning objects in the teaching practice. The behavior of some indicators in the proposed categories of analysis was deduced, focusing on the determination of good practices, through an inductive process of analysis of the particular contexts of technology application.

The study was carried out with professors of the Communications and Electronics Engineering program, which has a staff of 124 teachers and belongs to the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Culhuacán professional unit. It is quantitative research and the data were obtained from the use of technological resources according to the situation and context of teaching practice in a controlled environment. The sample was probabilistic of a finite universe in the normal distribution of 44 elements. The research instrument included 35 questions divided into three sections: general data and two dimensions (use of technology and learning objects), whose purpose was the identification of preferences for the use of the different categories of technology used in teaching and the design, development, classification, distribution and use of learning objects in teaching practice.

The study concludes that there is a gap, which, although is narrowing, is still very large, requiring greater dissemination and training, the creation of entities that generate specific content in each institution and, above all, raising awareness among all the actors involved about their roles as promoters, trainers of new integration processes and awareness generators.
