Abstract

The work consisted of the design, elaboration and proposal of models with the use of Information and
Communication Technologies (ICT), to contribute to the study of the origin of the coelom in animals with
bilateral symmetry in the teaching-learning process of Biology 2, in high school. Several methods of
information gathering and processing were used, which allowed verifying the evident deficiencies
regarding the use and elaboration of models in digital format for the study of the origin of the coelom in the teaching-learning process of this subject. A total of three models, related to the acoelomate, pseudocoelomate and coelomate condition in bilaterally symmetrical animals were built in electronic format. The constructed models were introduced in the teaching - learning process of Biology 2 from the course 2019 - 2020. The models proposed, until their implementation, were assessed by expert criteria that considered them relevant. The criteria offered by teachers and students after applying the selected
methods to them were also taken into consideration. The effectiveness of the models was also made
evident taking into consideration the results obtained by the students once the pedagogical test was applied. It is concluded that the thematic approached is important and coincides with the transformations that are carried out in the National Education System in Cuba and in particular in the 8th grade of secondary 4education.
