Analysis of the activities of the program Clic in education-learning contexts

Abstract

Along this article, we examine one of the computer programmes used by teachers: Clic. This is a tool for creating multimedia educational activities for students. Apart from describing this programme —specifying its technical characteristics, potentialities, possible uses and its pedagogical value in relation to other didactic resources (particularly the text book)— we refer to a concrete case in a Primary School. In this case study, which is part of a broader research, we analyse the ways or experiences of use of the Clic activities. These experiences take place both in mainstream classrooms and specific classrooms (computer classrooms). The information we have for the analysis of these experiences was obtained out of formal and informal interviews, participant and non-participant information, field notes, reports and field diaries, etc.
