ECHEVERRIA SAENZ, Ana Cristina. Use of TIC (Communication and Information Technologies) in University Teaching: Opinion of Special Education Professors. Rev. Actual. Investig. Educ [online]. 2014, vol.14, n.3, pp.272-297. ISSN 1409-4703.
The present article shows the results and discussion on the topic of the use of TIC (communication and information technologies) in university teaching, from the point of view of the professors in the Special Education Section of the Special Education and Counseling school of the UCR. To learn the opinion of the participants a questionnaire was applied as a part of a case study. The objective is to share the scope of the research, as well as the opinion and recommendations given by the Special Education professors who participated, regarding their needs in both the technical and educational need for TIC in university teaching. The main conclusions reveal that there is a good disposition and attitude towards the incorporation of TIC as a support in university didactic. At the same time, it is believed that trainings are needed to learn the technical and educational uses of these resources to make the most out of them. If TIC are incorporated as a support tool in the academic training of the professors, they will assume a role of mediators in the learning process. Furthermore the professors will benefit from this learning both at the beginning and permanently.
