In Spain, the educational system is focused on traditional teacher-centred methods.
Nevertheless, this traditional approach does not engage students anymore. Prensky
(2001) claims that students have changed and our educational system was not designed
to teach today's students.
Today's students are digital natives, they were born into the digital world and they have
spent their entire lives using technology. Therefore, taking this into account is
paramount to capture the students’ interest in class.
This work has been designed to integrate the use of ICT in a Spanish high school where
traditional approach is the predominant methodology amongst teachers.
The didactic unit designed and described in this paper has been implemented in a third
year of Compulsory Secondary Education with the objective of combining a traditional
approach with a task-based approach. This didactic unit includes the use of ICT in a
wide variety of activities in order to deal with diversity awareness and to cope with the
different learning styles students may have.
Results indicate that the use of ICT is highly motivating for the students, that students
perform better on the tasks which imply the use of computers opposed to the use of
traditional materials and that they are willing to work in collaborative groups.
