This research was conducted at the UNAH-TEC Danlí university campus, in the department of El Paraíso; where one of the vision´s dimensions is technology-oriented education. The following research considered a general objective defined as: Use of Technology Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Diagnosis. The conditions of the educational context were analyzed, during the year of 2014. The dimensions of these technologies are related to each of the roles of teachers and students, student satisfaction, teacher training and state of the technology resources.
The focus of research is a mixed type combining qualitative and quantitative approaches: quantitative data manipulating percentages, based on the observation technique which adds the qualitative nature to the technology area. The survey instruments used were applied to 44 teachers and 274 students including the three specialties offered in the student center. As a result of using a mixed method, the existing technological resources were directly observed as research support, in order to define their conditions and consider their characteristics as techniques. The obtained results showed that there is a misuse of ICT resources, reflecting a low frequency of use of 72.03% by students and 74.64% by teachers, students´ perception on teachers´ competences as low as 58.96% in addition to a low support for the teaching-learning process. However, an acceptable positive attitude towards the use of new educational technologies was shown (73%).
The perspective of ICT use was defined by identifying a low percentage in terms of their applicability to the university context. (55.33%). These results search for an establishment of recommendations to overcome the weaknesses found in the use of ICT, in order to define an action plan for the authorities. In addition, this article hopes to awaken the interest of the university authorities and university campuses nationwide.
