MIRANDA, Andrea; SANTOS, Graciela  and  STIPCICH, Silvia. Features of the Researches that Studying the Use of ICTs in Science Class. REDIE [online]. 2010, vol.12, n.2, pp.1-22. ISSN 1607-4041.

In recent years an increasing interest in the study of technological mediation in the educational processes at all levels of education. In this paper we communicate the characteristics found in current research on learning environments which integrate Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) into a science class. Analysis of the research uses Gowin's heuristic technique V as a metacognitive strategy that allows the identification of the the relevant aspects of the research process. Reviewed and described were the different works selected to determine current trends in the study of teaching and learning processes using technology. It was possible to determine that the majority of the works analyzed study the aspects associated with the didactic efficacy of the use of ICTs, and only a few make reference to the interactive processes that emerge from learning activities.

Keywords : Information technology; research methodology; learning communities.
