REANEZ, Maryoribel  and  DELGADO, Mercedes. Computer competencies as a tool for meaningful learning in university education. RCUISRAEL [online]. 2018, vol.5, n.1, pp.23-40.  Epub Apr 08, 2018. ISSN 2631-2786.  https://doi.org/10.35290/rcui.v5n1.2018.230.

The purpose of this research was to analyze computer skills as a tool for meaningful learning in university education. This study is based on theoretical inputs and conceptual references of authors such as Rodríguez (2014), Alles (2009), Martínez and other (2008), among others, and is part of the qualitative paradigm, in a type of documentary study, analysis. Performed through the technique of documentary observation, interpreting the data collected from the perspective of the researcher’s knowledge, its logic and reason. Based on the documentary review, we found weaknesses related to the use of ICT, as a means of learning in universities, resulting in causes such as lack of training, resistance to change and obsolescence in computer equipment. In view of the above, it is suggested to immediately deploy a permanent training process, for all those involved in the university community, in the search for the use of new technologies, for the development of individuals, and for university quality and relevance.
