Keywords:
ICT, higher education, teacher education, digital competenciesAbstract
This article has the goal to document and reflect on the current use of the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) among High School teachers and students and their appropriation and integration processes. This article was based on an extended literature review search on how is done the appropriation process of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) among high school teachers and students, with particular interest in the student learning impact and students´ performance. This article identified within the specialized studies several benefits and advantages on the use of ICT during the teaching and learning process at high school level, such as: access to materials and resources; motivation increase; productivity; it also improves the understanding and students´ performance, among others. However, the literature review shows that currently, there are basic barriers in the use of educational technology which need to be overcome (such as: access to resources and teachers training), these technologies still have a marginal and minimum effect on the teaching-learning process in high schools.References
