Valoración de las tic por los estudiantes universitarios y su relación con los enfoques de aprendizaje

Abstract

The changes introduced in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) demand new conceptualisations of teaching and learning, as well as of the different teaching resources required. One of these resources is Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), the use of which in university classrooms is bringing along a change in mentality among teachers and students. This paper presents two studies. The first one examines the learning profile of 443 undergraduate students of different branches of knowledge according to their perception of the use of ICTs in class. In the second study 365 social sciences and law students participated in a teaching-learning innovative experience in which ICT and didactic websites were used. The results showed that a positive assessment of ICT is related to deep approaches to learning of students, and that ICT-mediated learning is positively rated by students.
