Abstract

Abstract: In recent years, technology has significantly impacted the teaching-learning processes, offering new opportunities to improve education. That is why, the main objective of this study is to facilitate teaching-learning in the subject of Social Studies, since digital tools such as Socrative allow the educational environment to be interactive and more didactic. The research project is quasi-experimental and cross-sectional, using tests of basic knowledge of the subject matter (Pre Test and Post Test) and questionnaires on students' perceptions of learning, thus obtaining qualitative and quantitative data. The objects of study are the students belonging to the Seventh Year of E.G.B., a total of 20 children. Socrative, through the application of the Post Test, allowed the students to experience in an interactive way the learning in Social Studies classes, giving them the opportunity to understand the subject by getting immediate feedback and learning with videos, graphics and interactive content. By resolving that Socrative as an innovative tool, statistically speaking, obtained a favorable acceptance, this study is indispensable for the promotion of the use of participatory teaching and learning methodologies; where the educational process is enhanced through critical thinking, teamwork and autonomy. Socrative proved to be an effective tool to improve the teaching-learning process in Social Studies, enhancing academic performance and being well received by students. Its implementation and the exploration of its use in other levels and subjects is recommended.
