Abstract

The research presented in this document addresses the problems identified during the development of pre-professional practices in the sixth year EGB parallel A of the Francisco Febres Cordero Millennium Educational Unit of the city of Cuenca. The observation during the pre-professional practice showed a problem in the use of ICT to work on academic reinforcement in Unit 6 "force electricity and magnetism" corresponding to the area of Natural Sciences. Therefore, the development of a Virtual Learning Environment is developed that serves as support for students in virtual classes and encourages the development of activities related to reinforcing the subject. To achieve the aforementioned, a compilation of bibliographic sources is made to inquire about topics related to the learning of Natural Sciences, academic reinforcement and the use of ICT. For which, a methodology with a qualitative approach and a socio-critical paradigm is proposed that guided the elaboration of the entire document. To the above, data collection techniques and instruments were applied that were analyzed to contextualize the current situation of the investigated subjects. Finally, with the data collected, a virtual classroom was developed and applied with virtual activities based on ICTs that capture the attention of students to provide feedback on their teaching-learning processes in the area of Natural Sciences.
