Abstract

One of the current challenges of the university system is to move towards a new model of university. Such model should be fully inserted into the overall society of information and knowledge. In this process, Information and Communications Technology (ICTs) is a decisive instrument not only from a managerial point of view, but also as support to teaching, research and transparency of knowledge. This is why an adaptation to the use of these tools is necessary, as well as the learning possibilities that ICTs present to the teaching-learning process. That is, to the creation of interactive settings, different modalities of learning, web sites for the subjects, etc. which are designed to overcome the variables of space and time, giving rise to new learning situations and teachings.
The objective of this work is to analyse the perception of teaching staff at the Department of Nursing Studies at the “Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC)” in the implementation process of ICTs and how it can modify the teaching learning process, by means of a questionnaire containing all the items of interest and using email as the communication means.
