Abstract

The evolution that has arisen in the different fields (economic, political, technological, social, educational, religious, among others) of humanity, has aroused special interest in the innovative implementation of educational systems, based on the evolution and practicality that they promote information and communication technologies (ICT), with a view to generating drastic changes that arise from the different elements of the didactic act. The objective of the study is to interpret the importance of Blended Learning (B-learning) models in educational teaching processes for the construction of knowledge, through the analysis of learning theories. It is an investigation centered within the postpositivist-interpretative paradigm, a qualitative approach (interpretivism-socio-symbolism) of a documentary type. The results indicate that, due to the versatility offered by the B-learning design in terms of its integrative level to structure face-to-face and virtual sessions, in accordance with ICT and learning theories; they generate innovative and creative processes that enhance the importance of discipline, communication and learning; among its main actors (teachers and students). The conclusions denote the resurgence of sources of horizons, framed under teaching activities, where institutions deserve to focus their strategies in favor of strengthening education systems, becoming resilient and capable of offering a response to society despite adversities and taking advantage of technology.
