Paper Abstract:
|
Nowadays, e-learning, teleformation, or training based on ICT (Information and Communication Technologies), play a
fundamental role in the improvement of the learning processes that is taking place at the Universities. On the one hand,
the incorporation of the ICT in a face-to-face, distance or blended modality and, on the other hand, the European
convergence process, have influenced on the change and improvement of the institution, in general, and the teachinglearning
process developed in Higher Education, in particular. Nevertheless, it could be necessary to remark that the basic
objective is to improve the attention of the users (in our case, students of Education Sciences). Another important aim is
to optimize the resources based on Internet. But, mainly, in order to promote innovating processes which simplify and
make agile not only the work of the teaching staff and students but also the communication among them. The purpose of
this paper is to find out if pre-service teachers prefer a virtual modality during the Practicum period, when they finish
their studies on Education. |
