Resumen

The rapid integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has fundamentally transformed education, making it an essential component of an individual's quality of life. By providing access to a vast world of digital information and the tools to utilize it effectively, this informatization of education is no longer a luxury but a necessity. This shift demands a higher degree of digital literacy across the population, particularly among students and professionals who are shaping the current and future workforce. In response to this evolution, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) must proactively seek out innovative alternatives to expand their educational reach and promote greater cultural and social integration. Distance education emerges as a crucial solution, representing the next logical step for HEIs to redefine how they meet the educational and cultural needs of a diverse population. This approach offers significant advantages, including greater coverage, increased flexibility, and enhanced freedom for learners, making education more accessible and adaptable to the demands of the modern world.
