Abstract

The rise of digital culture is accompanied by the institutionalization of the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. In order to assess quantitatively and qualitatively the impact of digital teaching resources on the autonomy of middle and high school students in the physical sciences, we conducted during the 2015–2016 school year a local survey conducted by questionnaires proposed for teachers of physical chemistry disciplines in a few existing the high school in Sidi Slimane (Urban Environment), among a sample of 30 college teachers of physics chemistry, and 100 learners. The questionnaire developed and used as an investigative tool. The results show that about 90% of the teachers surveyed have a personal computer only 67% use the ICT's tools in their teaching practices, the majority of learners use digital resources in the form of social networks and non-academic games outside the classroom (82%), only (13%) whose use digital educational resources outside the classroom.
