Abstract

We present the educational innovation and the results of a new exercise in the teaching practice of the Educational Experience (EE) of the Integrative Project, which belongs to the Educational Program of Computer Technologies (Faculty of Statistics and Informatics, University of Veracruz), in the school period February-July 2020. The purpose of this educational innovation is to achieve significant learning of students through an online education environment. We describe the strategies, the planned and organized activities, and the implemented skills and actions to change the teaching practice and student function during the new reality caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We integrated the Eminus and Zoom to change from face-to-face to an online education environment. The results were significant; eighty percent of the students achieved the planned competencies necessary to accredit the EE and recognized the importance of ethics in their academic and professional performances.
