To improve and innovate the teaching and learning process, it is necessary to develop or use technological means that allow effective communication between teachers and students. Likewise, the use of virtual learning environments, with the appearance of COVID 19, have become a priority in teaching practice, revolutionizing many fields of engineering and the educational system in general. A mixed approach research with descriptive and correlational design was carried out in a sample of 59 teachers, whose objective is to share the experiences of professors of a higher education institution, during and after the pandemic, on the use of virtual environments, such as Moodle and Google Classroom. Also, the benefits and difficulties encountered in virtual classes and currently, in face-to-face classes. Some of the results are 67.2% of the professors already knew about the use of learning environments, but even so, 98.2% concluded that they did develop new skills and aptitudes, most frequently 71.4%, in the creation of courses in virtual platforms and 66.1% in basic competencies in the use of virtual learning platforms, as others to promote quality and educational innovation in the institution.

This article consists of a quantitative investigation that shows the results of the use of Edpuzzle as a learning tool in a face-to-face class of a programming course offered at the Technological University of Southern Sonora (UTS). The study consisted in the development of an interactive video on the Edpuzzle platform to deliver and evaluate a topic that students sometimes consider difficult to learn. The tool allowed the evaluation of the students who used the learning material developed for the topic. An analysis was made of the resulting information that showed a higher performance, with a difference of 17.14 percentage points, in the group that used the tool. Also, students participating in the experimental group expressed, through a non-formal interview, that the application seemed different to how the classes are conducted at the University, but they considered it very attractive, dynamic and interesting to use in future classes to support other topics.
