Descripción: | Since the last decade, the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in Education has been on the rise. Flipped classrooms use ICTs as resources in which students use videos to learn theories and concepts and the teacher plays the role of a facilitator or mediator. This study shows the results of how ICTs were used for a Computer Science 1 class by group of students from high school No. 1 from the public school system in the Mexican state of Hidalgo. The subjects of the study included 90 students during the first semester. A four-stage research - action methodology was used that included: 1) an action plan, 2) development of the action, 3) observation of the action and 4) reflection. Three didactic situations involving Computer Science were designed, developed and assessed to strengthen the use of Technology using the Schoology educational platform, Apple Clips, Movie Maker and YouTube. Finding reveal that 92% of the students preferred flipped class compared to traditional classes. Only 8% preferred the traditional system. Technology helped maintain the attention of the students, particularly when the teacher used recorded video of the class to better understand the subject matter. As a result, student approval towards the subject also increased. |
