ICT: An ethical challenge in the self-training of the Venezuelan teacher

Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies constitute an ethical challenge in the self-training of the Venezuelan teacher, since these, currently, are essential keys to undertake the educational innovations that today's world demands. Teachers, in this third decade of the 21st century, have knowledge and use of the digital universe. However, they were formed according to the precepts of logical rationalism and this does not allow them to open adequate spaces for self-formation. In this sense, the objective was formulated to generate theoretical constructs about information and communication technologies in the self-training of the Venezuelan teacher. The study was carried out according to the qualitative approach, the method used was the phenomenological-hermeneutic and using the documentary review technique. Discourse analysis was applied to the information and from this emerged the basic categories for the theoretical construction presented.
