description | The use of information and communication technologies [ICT] has proven to be accepted to increase students’ motivation, as it allows them to develop technological skills, creativity, and innovation. The objective of this research was to characterize the use of ICT in natural sciences as a factor associated with content learning in science, technology, and society [STS]. The sample consisted of 15 ninth-grade students and two teachers from the science area of a public educational institution in Colombia. The research was qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Non-participatory observation, semi-structured interviews,and qualitative content analysis were used. The change in student learning with the use of ICTs was observed in terms of the STS component. This use favoured motivation, attention, and participation during the development of the activities. Therefore, it is imperative to enhance science education from technological environments in order that students can provide solutions to problematic situations in their context. |

El uso de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación [TIC] ha mostrado tener aceptación para aumentar la motivación de los estudiantes, ya que les permite desarrollar competencias tecnológicas, la creatividad y la innovación. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue caracterizar el uso de las TIC en el área de ciencias naturales como factor asociado al aprendizaje de contenidos en ciencia, tecnología y sociedad [CTS]. La muestra estuvo conformada por quince estudiantes de noveno grado y dos docentes del área de ciencias de una institución educativa pública en Colombia. La investigación fue cualitativa con enfoque fenomenológico. Se usaron la observación no participativa, entrevistas semiestructuradas y el análisis de contenido cualitativo. Se observó el cambio en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes con el uso de las TIC en el componente CTS. Este uso propició la motivación, la atención y la participación durante el desarrollo de las actividades. Por lo tanto, es imperativo fortalecer la educación en ciencias desde ambientes tecnológicos para que los estudiantes puedan dar soluciones a situaciones problémicas de su contexto. A utilização das tecnologias de informação e comunicação [TIC] tem demonstrado aceitação para aumentar a motivação dos alunos, permitindo-lhes desenvolver competências tecnológicas, criatividade e inovação. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi caracterizar a utilização das TIC na área das ciências naturais como fator associado à aprendizagem de conteúdos em ciência, tecnologia e sociedade [CTS]. A amostra foi composta por 15 alunos do nono ano e dois professores da área de ciências de uma instituição de ensino pública na Colômbia. A pesquisa foi qualitativa com um enfoque fenomenológico. Foram utilizadas observaçõesnão participativas, entrevistas semi‑estruturadas e análise qualitativa do conteúdo. A mudança na aprendizagem dos estudantes com o uso das TIC foi observada no componente STS. Este uso incentivou a motivação, a atenção e a participação durante o desenvolvimento das atividades. Portanto, é imperioso fortalecer o ensino de ciências a partir de ambientes tecnológicos para que os alunos possam oferecer soluções para situações-problema em seu contexto.
