Abstract

Educational technological applications have become an essential resource for the teaching-learning process. The objective is to develop a teaching strategy based on the use of digital tools for better academic performance in first-year high school students, including project management applications, presentation and scientific research software, and interactive resources that encourage active participation and autonomous learning. It was observed that regular use of applications improves the organization, collaboration and creativity of students. This research is based on a mixed methodology, combining qualitative and quantitative approaches. A quantitative approach was used through surveys to measure the impact of digital tools, therefore, we will work with direct observation, interview and survey techniques, aimed at first-year high school students, allowing the consolidation of achievable and valid measurable results. 90% of the results show that the integration of digital tools in the educational process allows the individual academic performance of each student to be improved and promotes more dynamic and participatory learning. Furthermore, the use of these technologies contributes to developing digital skills. Educational digital applications present an effective strategy to improve the academic performance of first-year high school students, offering a more interactive teaching-learning approach, naturally offering the creation of an inclusive digital learning environment, the implementation of active techniques that encourage critical thinking and problem solving
