Recursos educativos abiertos antes y durante la pandemia. El rol de las imágenes en las propuestas de enseñanza y aprendizaje

Abstract

The pandemic put the spotlight on open educational resources. Since the year 2000, in our country, teachers can access them on the Educ.ar portal. In this work, we documented the available resources in that portal. In addition, we analysed and compared static images in the learning and teaching proposals available on that portal published before and during the pandemic. The 45% of the resources consisted of videos, 18% were students' activities, and 15% were proposals for pedagogical sequences, the rest correspond to other textual materials, audios, broken links, etc. We found differences in image quantity, quality, and communicative function, depending on whether the resources were published before or during the pandemic. Materials produced during the pandemic had fewer images than those before. The scarce use of these resources during the pandemic may have been more influenced by the type of resources available than by the way in which the images were included.
