Abstract

The objective of this study was to explore teachers’ perceptions and experiences regarding the integration of technology and collaborative learning at the “Migdalia de Pérez Extension Km6” Complex. A qualitative investigation was carried out with an interpretative design, using semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Teachers were selected through purposive sampling, prioritizing those actively engaged in collaborative practices and technological use. The analysis employed thematic coding and was validated through triangulation, peer review, and participant feedback. The results revealed a positive attitude towards technology, although limitations in infrastructure, training, and resources persist. Collaborative strategies promote participation and the development of socio-cognitive skills, but their effectiveness is restricted by technological barriers. It is concluded that it is necessary to strengthen infrastructure, provide ongoing training, and design strategies that address the challenges of the rural environment in order to improve educational quality.
