نبذة مختصرة : This article presents the main findings of an investigation that addresses the implementation of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in courses offered by the Department of Applied Mathematics at the University of Costa Rica from the student's perspective. The methodology used is based on a quantitative approach of the descriptive type. Variables such as ICTs, students' perception of their usage, and academic performance are explained. Based on these developments, two data collection instruments were constructed, which were endowed with validity and reliability. Once calibrated, the instruments were applied at two points in time to a conveniently chosen sample. The information analysis was conducted using statistical methods, revealing as main results positive beliefs regarding the use of ICTs along with high student approval rates, highlighting a notable performance by repeating students. One of the conclusions drawn was that students utilize ICTs to expedite and verify results in understanding concepts and resolving exercises during their study processes. ; En este artículo se presentan los principales hallazgos de una investigación que aborda, desde la visión del estudiante, la implementación de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TICs) en cursos del Departamento de Matemática Aplicada de la Universidad de Costa Rica. La metodología utilizada se basa en un enfoque cuantitativo del tipo descriptivo. Se explican variables como TICs, percepción de los estudiantes ante el uso de estas y rendimiento académico. Con base en tales definiciones se construyeron dos instrumentos de recolección de datos, los cuales fueron dotados de validez y confiabilidad. Una vez calibrados, los instrumentos fueron aplicados en dos momentos a una muestra elegida a conveniencia. El análisis de la información se llevó a cabo mediante métodos estadísticos, mostrando como principales resultados creencias positivas respecto al uso de las TICs unido a una alta aprobación de los estudiantes, donde destacó un ...
