Resumen de Impact of using tablets together with active didactic methodologies in secondary school
High schools are increasingly implementing the usage of tablets as well as active didactic methodologies such as cooperative learning, project-based learning or gamification. These changes in the teaching and learning process consequently involve teachers’ motivation and training in order to face the continuous innovation in the pupils’ educational development. In this sense, it is key to make the most when didactic methodologies and information and communication technologies as tablets are put together to consolidate emerging pedagogies in high schools as a commitment to the future. In this paper, the strategy followed by Claret Las Palmas School to combine the usage of tablets together with active methodologies in secondary schools is presented. This approach is beginning in the first cycle of secondary school in this 2018-2019 course. As a first step, the involved teachers have completed a survey after passing a training of both active didactic methodologies and the usage of tablets (Chromebook). The results of this survey show that teachers highlight the use of cooperative learning and project based learning methodologies. Moreover, they are mainly concerned with future training and WiFi connection in the classroom, among other aspects.
