Abstract

The use of communication and information technologies (ICT) and their impact on higher education are analyzed and discussed. In particular activities such as homework with the use of information provided by the Internet. A semi structured survey was applied on the use of ICT for the development of academic activities at the National Polytechnic Institute within the Interdisciplinary Professional Unit of Engineering and Social and Administrative Sciences It was observed that the students of this Institution use various computer tools at least once a week as a means of consultation for the completion of school tasks. It is concluded that aspects such as the computer, the friendly and entertaining way of doing tasks online, have a positive influence on learning. © 2018 Centro de Informacion Tecnologica.
