Learning mediated by ICT in the teaching of Mechatronics

Abstract

This work presents an assessment of the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the teaching-learning process of the Mechatronics in the Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering. Initially, concepts related to ICT are showed from the perspective of different researchers and their principal impacts on educational systems. Based on the analyzes the incidence of ICTs in the current teaching-learning process is analyzed and how these constitute a challenge for superior education to achieve a preparation of students based on technology-based learning. In addition, an analysis of the Mechanical Engineering course is carried out, with the objective of demonstrating the contribution of the use of ICT in the implementation of a distance learning course model within the subject, providing innovative solutions to the traditional processes of teaching and learning.
