Research for many people may seem a tedious, boring and unimportant process because of the apparent complexity of the subject. But research allows the development of skills, abilities and abilities not developed by students with traditional education; when looking for alternatives for the development of critical, reflective and exploratory thinking about phenomena that happen in their daily life and how to associate it with theory. The purpose of the study was to implement research as a pedagogical strategy supported by ICT in the Macondo departmental educational institution. This was guided under the methodological guidelines of the IEP with a design based on the trajectories of inquiry. The population consisted of forty (40) elementary school students from the Macondo IED of the municipality of Zona Bananera, Magdalena. An improvement in the teaching-learning process was achieved with the implementation of the IEP supported by ICT, since aspects such as leadership, imagination, reflexive capacity, critical thinking, improvement of social skills and creation of hypotheses were potentiated.
