In this document, some principles for instructional designing related to socio-cultural constructivism and the situated cognition, referring to the design of learning patterns based on information and communication technologies (ICT) are dealt with. The educative potencialities of those technologies are analyzed as to their sign character or psychological instruments in contrast with their restricted use as technical tools. A few characteristics of the background support of the ICT which potentialize learning are pointed out. Some conclusions are reached making clear the need to conduct research on the mechanisms of educational influence and the real educational practices which occur in various school experiences, autoinitiated and mediated by technology.

Palabras clave : Learning Platforms; Psychological Instruments; Information and Communication Technology; ICT.
