The research carried out focuses on the preparation of professors of the Faculty of Health Sciences in the use of ICTs to provide the didactic possibilities in the acquisition of theoretical and practical knowledge of chemistry, taking advantage of the vertiginous development of technologies in The 21st century. During the research process has been used, primarily as a method of the empirical level, the observation, participatory and systematic, the pedagogical process that takes place in the faculty. To this end, an observation guide has been developed as an instrument that has allowed collecting information on the use of new technologies in the development of chemistry classes, which has revealed the existence of the problem being investigated. Observation has made it possible to assess the relevance of the proposal presented as a solution to the problem. This proposal consists of providing digital and methodological tools that allow teachers to exploit the potential of such media. ICTs have had a great impact on the learning of chemistry in the Faculty of Health Sciences of the Southern State University of ManabÍ , to respond to the needs of students in the achievement of formulation and experimentation skills. This scientific article focuses on the preparation of professors of the faculty of Health Sciences in the use of ICTs to provide the didactic possibilities in the acquisition of theoretical and practical knowledge of chemistry.
