Abstract

The teaching–learning processes have changed their scenarios given the development of
Information and Communication Technologies and computer networks, which has led
to the creation of spaces in which students and teachers meet and work with learning
resources. The Internet has generated enormous interest in all spheres of our society; its
use for educational purposes is increasing. This article refers to some of the educational
possibilities of Information and Communication Technologies, especially as a resource
for the presentation, processing and search of information, and the possibilities of the
Virtual Environments of Teaching Learning to integrate coherently the facilities
Multimedia, synchronous and asynchronous communications, offered by the Internet.
