Incorporation, use and social appropriation of ICT for quality education. A proposal

Abstract

The colombian government has implemented the Plan Vive Digital strategy as a way of linking rural populations to technological development. The analysis of said policy is presented in the municipality of El Tambo, Cauca, Colombia, with the intention of determining its effectiveness from the understanding of the use and appropriation of technology, located in an official educational institution. From a multi-method approach, of a mixed nature, three phases are worked: contextual characterization, analysis of uses and practices of technological appropriation and proposal of an improvement strategy. Thus, it is possible to establish that the infrastructure used is not adequate, that human capital is not satisfied with the effectiveness of technological processes and that the process of digital inclusion is not effective, which leads to proposing a training-technological strategy to promote greater insertion, from digital literacy and the reduction of the social gap. All this to conclude that the state intention is plausible, but it is not enough, since the strategy is implemented, but relevant factors that affect its correct development are unknown, a situation that perpetuates inequity.
