This paper aims to analyze the potentials and limitations offered by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the educational field, specifically in the context of the pandemic caused by the SARS-COV2 virus. A qualitative research methodology with a documentary approach was employed to gather and analyze a series of relevant documents regarding the use of technology in contingency scenarios as substitutes for traditional learning environments. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the pandemic has created an opportunity to rethink educational systems, mphasizeng the importance of ICT in the educational field. The need to design and redesign strategies that effectively integrate the use of ICT in classrooms, restructuring teaching and learning processes to ensure quality education, becomes evident. It is worth highlighting that ICT has demonstrated its ability to provide innovative solutions in the educational domain, enabling the continuity of the teaching and learning process during emergency situations such as the current pandemic. However, certain limitations and challenges must be addressed, such as the digital divide and the need for teacher training in the use of these technological tools.
