Abstract

This article aims to analyze the impact of using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as a pedagogical support tool in the teaching and learning processes of the teachers at the Institución Educativa Sor Matilde Sastoque in San Martín, Cesar. The research, based on a quantitative, descriptive, and quasi-experimental approach, focused on analyzing data obtained from surveys and observations before and after a training intervention based on a Web 3.0 application. This design allowed for the objective measurement of changes in digital competencies, teachers' attitudes towards technology, and the degree of ICT integration in the classroom. The results showed a positive evolution in teachers' willingness to use digital tools, with greater autonomy in planning technology-mediated learning activities. Despite initial resistance related to age, previous training, and fear of change, the training program led to a significant shift in motivation, active participation, and methodological innovation. Furthermore, the pedagogical use of ICT contributed to class dynamization, strengthened teacher-student relationships, and increased student engagement. The study concludes that ICT, beyond being complementary tools, are key allies in transforming teaching practices and addressing the educational challenges of the 21st century.
