The research presents an approach based on data analytics and automatic learning mechanisms integrated into one of the most widely used digital learning platforms in the world (open EDX) as a contribution to the improvement of learning processes in middle school students in municipalities of Colombia. Methodologically, according to Creswell y Plano Clark (2007), and Clements et al. (2017) a system was created to recommend educational contents adapted to the individual characteristics of students considering the limitations in the use of technologies in educational institutions; we developed interviews with teachers and focus groups with students of 10º and 11º grade; as a result, a functional architecture proposal was generated that allows the generation of initial recommendations of contents managed according to the students' performance and the characteristics of the territory.
