Abstract

The migration from face-to-face to non-face-toface education due to the pandemic caused by Covid-19 has led to the transformation of learning scenarios. In this research, the perceptions of the students regarding the implementation of teaching strategies based on communicative interaction, the selection of learning materials, and for the evaluation based on the use of technologies were analyzed. The study subjects were high school students from a private educational institution located in Mexico. The study was descriptive, based on the application of a Likert-type scale questionnaire. The recovery of the data was carried out using a digital form designed expressly for the investigation. 248 students who were about to complete the fourth semestre in the period January-June 2020 participated. The results revealed that there was a favorable acceptance of the activities carried out by teachers with digital tools, some areas of opportunity were evident, such as face-to-face interaction, the scarce diversification of the content selected for learning and evaluation, and the absence of evaluation actions based on the use of discussion forums.
