Description or content

This project arises from the recognition of the presence of ICT in learning environments

as they favor a change in student behavior. With the implementation of the designed mobile

application, it was possible for the students to strengthen concepts, skills and scientific

competences in the area of Natural Sciences, obtaining better results in the teaching-learning

process, the development of ICT skills and the use of language. scientist. The experience of

the application through a real experimentation exercise was adequate and showed skills in the

students, greater motivation and participation. This research is carried out from a mixed

approach. The experience of the App application shows that the use of technological tools

contributes to the development of skills that, applied in real situations, facilitate work and lead

students to more structured situations in terms of analysis processes, event prediction and

registration. of conclusions. The objective of this work was to analyze the incidence of a

didactic strategy mediated by a mobile application in the development of the scientific

competences of the sixth grade students of the Esteban Ochoa Educational Institution. The

curricular contents were taken into account, the type of interface for the design of the

educational mobile application was analyzed and selected, and the proposal of a training plan

for the development of scientific-technological skills is a fundamental support in the academic

process of the students.
