| Descripción: | Teacher’s training is fundamental to incorporate TIC in education programs; even though, most projects in Mexico don’t include it, the same problem appears in Kids on Computers, mainly because the lack of knowledge about the software installed over Ubermix and Raspbian in the computer labs in Huajuapan de Leon, Oaxaca, Mexico. This work shows evidence on the need of teacher’s training in digital skills within the study case. A statistical field test methodology has been used with a quantitative approach, data is collected from a survey that was designed following the recommendations of international organizations. Results report that only 20% of the sample have been trained in TIC, the half of them consider theirself in the beginners level and the other half in the intermediate level. A training program is proposed, course goals and content are adjusted to include theory-practice knowledge that allows the use of the software applications. First, they start with operative systems basics and then a catalog of apps classified upon educative criteria was generated to share that information with teachers and select those that result more useful to them. |
