Summary

The doctoral thesis aims to validate the TPACK model using the S.O.L.O. taxonomy through an online training program so that teachers in the field of mathematics who develop their work in preschool, basic and mid-level educational institutions in the department of Huila, Colombia, can strengthen their digital and motivational skills for learning ICT through the use of technological resources. A qualitative and quantitative research methodology was designed for a sample made up of teachers from the field of mathematics, and the context studied in educational institutions was analyzed describing the teaching professionals' ICT resources, use, perceptions and digital skills. The online training program called "Software for learning programming at an early age" was designed and implemented on the Brightspaces platform provided by the Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, where results of the teaching-learning (T-L) process were obtained, using different instruments, as well as the results of the pretest and posttest instruments. The research concludes that the proposed teacher training program with the TPACK model and S.O.L.O. is suitable for the teaching-learning (T-L) process to develop mathematics teachers' digital skills.
