Abstract

The importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for all levels of education is undeniable, since to a large extent the expected results in this area are articulated with variables such as innovation, creativity and research, which are favored when they are mediated by technologies. With the purpose of reflecting on the contributions that ICT can generate for education processes in Colombia, in the post-conflict stage, the results of a qualitative research that analyzed the different approaches that are currently suggested to incorporate ICT in the educational field are presented below. The final results allow us to understand the methodologies to be followed so that the transition to virtual education environments can be carried out gradually.
