Sumario:This study analyzes teaching practices and the use of technological-digital resources in technical secondary schools in Argentina, aiming to strengthen teacher training in innovative strategies for technical and vocational education and training (TVET). It is an exploratory-descriptive research with a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews with teachers from technical schools in Santa Fe, Santa Cruz, La Pampa, and Río Negro, exploring their knowledge and experience in integrating Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into teaching. The results highlight various conditions that influence the implementation of digital tools. In terms of material and technical aspects, the lack of adequate resources and limited Internet access stand out. At the professional level, the need for continuous training and inequalities in digital competencies were identified. Regarding schooling, both teachers and students face challenges in accessing the necessary devices and platforms for effective teaching. Therefore, the study underscores the importance of teacher training to actively and meaningfully leverage ICT, promoting not only knowledge acquisition but also the development of practical and critical skills among students.
