Abstract

ICT are nowadays, a reality in Spanish education. Although it has been a tough job, their use in physical sciences education has also increased in the last few years. But even with that, it is not clear whether students like them, use them and get any real profit from them. In this work we tried to analyse several aspects of the use of ICT in Spanish physical sciences education system, as which tools are used the most, which tools should be used the most, or which competences students improve with their use, among others. The results showed that computers are the preferred tools and that they will continue playing that role in the future, but also that 17% of the students think that ICT are not necessary.

Key words: ICT, education, innovation, computer, competences.
