          Abstract

          Resumen En contexto del COVID-19, la transición de la educación presencial a la virtual ha enfrentado grandes desafíos, acelerando la implementación de las Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC) en la educación universitaria. La finalidad de la investigación es explorar el rol de las TIC en la adaptación a la educación virtual durante el 2021 y 2022 en estudiantes de tres universidades públicas de Bolivia, Ecuador y Perú, países de la Comunidad Andina de Naciones-CAN. Esta investigación es de diseño no experimental, de enfoque cuantitativo y cualitativo, con técnica de encuesta, aplicado a 555 estudiantes de las universidades participantes y 10 entrevistas a profundidad. Los resultados denotan que las TIC han garantizado la continuidad de la educación superior en modalidad virtual, cuyo proceso ha sido gradual y específico a las características de cada país, utilizándose con mayor frecuencia las aplicaciones como: el Zoom en Bolivia, Microsoft Teams en Ecuador y Google Meet en Perú, donde el principal problema ha sido el relacionado a la necesidad de tener una buena conexión a Internet así como a las limitadas habilidades necesarias para el uso óptimo de estas herramientas. Se concluye que la implementación de TIC evitó la disrupción en la educación superior, favoreciendo la interacción entre estudiantes y docentes, facilitando el proceso de entrega de trabajos y evaluaciones.

          Abstract In the context of COVID-19, the transition from face-to-face to virtual education has faced great challenges, accelerating the implementation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in university education. The purpose of this research is to explore the role of ICT in the adaptation to virtual education during 2021 and 2022 in students of three public universities in Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru, countries of the Andean Community of Nations - CAN. This research is of non-experimental design, quantitative and qualitative approach, with survey technique, applied to 555 students of the participating universities and 10 in-depth interviews. The results show that ICTs have guaranteed the continuity of higher education in virtual mode, whose process has been gradual and specific to the characteristics of each country, with the most frequent use of applications such as: Zoom in Bolivia, Microsoft Teams in Ecuador and Google Meet in Peru, where the main problem has been related to the need for a good Internet connection as well as the limited skills necessary for the optimal use of these tools. It is concluded that the implementation of ICTs prevented disruption in higher education, favoring interaction between students and teachers, facilitating the process of submitting assignments and evaluations.
