The Use of Digital Resources in Conceptual Change, an Essential Factor in Improving Learning

Abstract

Teaching and learning occupy a major place all over the world, as the sustainable development of all sectors is linked to the improvement of the educational system. The COVID 19 experiment showed that the place of ICT in the learning process is not optional but essential, and that mastery of the computer tool is an asset that will serve the pedagogy and ensure the continuity of learning whatever the circumstances. The objective of our work is to evaluate the impact of the introduction of the computer tool on the quality of learning and the realization of conceptual change in learners. That is why a learning situation was carefully prepared, aiming at students of the first year of the baccalaureate in experimental sciences, from a public high school "Khadija Oum Almouminin"; dealing with the chapter of the regulation of glycemia of the Moroccan program in Life and Earth Sciences (LES). The learning situation was carried out with a pilot group to which we introduced the computer tool and another control group with which we worked on the same chapter but without using ICT. The analysis and comparison of the results allowed us to verify the problematic posed and to propose perspectives to ensure conceptual change in the learners.
