Abstract
La transición a la enseñanza en línea impuesta durante la pandemia de Covid-19 ha acelerado la integración de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) por parte de los docentes en América Latina y el Caribe (ALC). Teniendo en cuenta que antes de la pandemia, la adopción de las TIC por parte estos docentes era lenta, es necesario investigar cómo, por qué y de qué manera los docentes de ALC superaron sus reticencias y resistencias previas a aprender y emplear la alfabetización digital. Este articulo se basa en un informe global realizado con entrevistas cualitativas sobre las experiencias de los docentes durante COVID -19 y analiza cómo la pandemia cambió la forma en que 53 docentes de 15 países de ALC piensan y utilizan las TIC. Los resultados sugieren que su preocupación por la pérdida en el proceso de aprendizaje de los estudiantes durante el cierre de las escuelas supera las barreras que normalmente impiden el uso de las TIC por parte de los profesores. Al mismo tiempo, la aceptación inicial del uso de las TIC ha variado debido, generalmente, a los continuos desafíos con la conectividad y el acceso a Internet. Esto hay que tenerlo en cuenta para conocer cuál es el apoyo necesario para el desarrollo profesional en el uso de las TIC después de COVID-19 y más allá.
