Abstract

This paper presents the main results of an investigation at the professional development level of teachers.  It originates from unmet needs in the Social Studies subject and their didactics, in relation to the utilization of teacher blogs.  A characterization of the subject is proposed and an alternative, oriented towards the utilization of educational blogs, is founded, as part of the methodological design of Social Sciences. In the research, the beginning point is the unquestionable value of Informatics to improve the learning outcomes of students, for its impact on life, socioeconomically and culturally.  With that purpose, criteria were taken from 80 students,26 teachers, and 10 authorities from the Ministry of Education about the use of blogs and their perception on their value to develop the learning processes.    Because blogs are spaces for the manipulation of information and search channels that provide a more independent learning and admit great intervention in group activities, interest and stimulation are usually increased in students.
