The influence of ICTs on the roles and inter-relations among students and professors in higher Education in-campus programs. Hallazgos [online]. 2014, vol.11, n.22, pp.435-454.

The purpose of this article is to make a reflection aimed at managers and teachers of institutions of higher education, about how the use of ICT influences the roles and interrelationships between students and teachers, in the processes of teaching and learning in face-to-face programs at that level. From this, it is concluded that when ICTs are used as support for the educational work in a planned way, emerges a dynamic of change in the relationship between students and teachers, where the first assume a role both individual and collective, active in the construction of their learning while teachers become architects and managers of environments and ICT-mediated learning experiences, and guides the process of search and analysis of information in the digital world, in addition to guiding of learning, different from the traditional education where the teacher is seen as holder of the knowledge and the student as a passive recipient of the same. This change in the dynamic process of learning by the use of ICT, promotes meaningful learning at the individual level, and collaborative work and learning in network, as an expression of the social construction of the learning that occurs in the interaction between students and teachers as part of the collective, which invites us to rethink the educational model of the institutions of higher education and teacher training.

Keywords : Technologies of Information and Communication; student and teacher interaction; teaching and learning; significant learning; collaborative work.
