Abstract:

The purpose of this work was to identify the best practices related with teaching techniques and the contents of computer science programs in order to put forward a study program that unifies the teaching work of the teachers and the learning of students in junior high school level. As a consequence of the multiple educational reforms that have affected basic education in Mexico, in the case of computer science and related subjects, education institutions do not have a study program validated by the Ministry of Public Education, nor with strategies pre-established to support teachers in their teaching work. As part of this problem, the need to implement different strategies and study plans that manage to develop technological skills in the student by being part of a knowledge society was considered. Particular attention to the correct teaching of information and communication technologies (ICT) must be paid as the use and management of computer science is a tool for daily human use. The methodology so far is a comparative evaluation of the different theoretical registers for the definition of the ideal categories and indicators around the content and teaching strategies that a teacher uses at High School in Mexico. It was found that most of them allude to a teaching of information management programs such as Microsoft Office and the management of hardware and software, as well as teaching strategies where the student is the main actor of learning, and graphic organizers that support the teaching of theoretical aspects in computer science.
