ICT is more than just an information medium since they can help promote significant changes in teaching. Taking advantage of the mandatory use of these tools in the COVID pandemic, we have analyzed the activities carried out by teachers of STEM subjects (Mathematics, Science and Technology) in secondary education, through two studies. Both studies were aimed at studying whether the objectives and expected results of the activities were more constructive and focused on the teachers or, on the contrary, they were more reproductive and focused on the teacher or the content. The first study was carried out by designing and administering a Likert questionnaire on the frequency of different types of tasks. An analysis of variance was applied to these data. The second study analyzed an activity selected by the teachers themselves using a category system (SATA). The results show a predominance of reproductive activities, managed by the teacher and a use of ICT as support.References
