Abstract

This paper presents a study about information and communication technologies (ITC) as resources in teaching practices in educational careers in Spain. The object of the study is to understand the incidence that ITC practices have in teaching and reveal how they improve the institutions where they operate. A questionnaire was used to gather information issued to 159 people involved in teaching practices.
