Uso de TIC en el Aprendizaje de Ciencias Naturales en Educación Básica

This article analyzes the impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on learning Natural Sciences among seventh-grade basic education students. A mixed-methods approach was used, involving questionnaires, interviews, classroom observations, and academic tests applied to both experimental and control groups. The results reveal significant improvements in understanding, motivation, and academic performance in the group exposed to ICT, particularly through educational videos and simulations. However, challenges remain regarding infrastructure and teacher training. It is concluded that strategic integration of ICT fosters more meaningful, collaborative, and inclusive learning.
