That was because the COVID-19 became a huge challenge of adaptation from all points of view. To perform this research work it was considered several international, national, and regional facts which keep relation with the present investigation linked with the theoretical, methodological, and conceptual point of view. The methodology was focused in a qualitative way with a descriptive documental design. The chosen sample was made up by ten teachers from the educational institution. Among the most important conclusions with the defined results, it is necessary to mention that the creation of pedagogical environments based in the TICs is crucial in the current time, because it facilitates the educational practice that, given the sanitary emergency generated by COVID-19, it was performed in its great majority in a remote way, so, from this reality comes the importance of considering the resources that the innovative methodologies based in educational technology give to education.
