Abstract

El estudio permite determinar las actitudes hacia la informática como medio en el proceso de enseñanza - aprendizaje de los esthudiantes y docentes. Se diseño un estudio comparativo con 34 docentes y 118 estudiantes de la facultad de ciencias de la salud de Universidad Nacional del Callao, durante el periodo 2007. Los datos se obtuvieron de un test valorativo de las actitudes en estudio. Se realizó un análisis bivariado mediante la prueba Z de comparación de proporciones. En la presente investigación se concluye que las actitudes favorables sobre la informática en los estudiantes son mayores respecto a los docentes en la facultad de la ciencias de la salud.

This study detenninates the attitudes on computer science as an important tool in the teaching"learning process of students and professors. During 2007, a comparative research has been designed in which 38 professors and 118 students from the Faculty ofHealth Science ofthe National University of Callao were involved. All the infonnation was obtained from a valorative test about the studied attitudes and through a bivariate analysis using the Z-Test to compare proportions. In this comparison between professors and students we found favorable attitudes such as valuation (28,9o/o/66,9% ), learning (28,9o/o/51, 7% ), self-perception of control (10,5%/33,9%), willingness (21,1 %/43,3%)1 professional development (10,5%/37,3%), satisfaction (13,2%/37,3%) and self-perception of perfonnance (18,4%/41,5%). In all these attitudes on computer science, we found differences which are statistically significative (P< 0,05). Finally, this research concludes that favorable attitudes on computer science in students are higher than in professors, in the Faculty of Health Science.
