El desarrollo de habilidades sociales en la infancia es crucial para el bienestar psicológico y el rendimiento académico de los niños. Las habilidades sociales, como la empatía y la comunicación, se aprenden y perfeccionan durante la vida, siendo la etapa preescolar crucial para su adquisición. Sin embargo, diversos factores pueden obstaculizar este desarrollo, afectando la comunicación y la autoestima de los niños. En este contexto, el uso de Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) emerge como una estrategia didáctica que podría favorecer el desarrollo de habilidades sociales en niños preescolares. El estudio propone analizar cómo contribuye una estrategia didáctica basada en TIC al desarrollo de habilidades sociales en estudiantes preescolares, Ecuador. El problema general plantea la necesidad de comprender esta contribución, y los problemas derivados buscan explorar conceptos, actividades educativas actuales, elementos didácticos de las TIC, y diseñar e implementar estrategias específicas. La hipótesis sugiere que el uso de una estrategia didáctica basada en TIC facilita el desarrollo de habilidades sociales en estos estudiantes. Los objetivos generales proponen la implementación de dicha estrategia, mientras que los objetivos específicos incluyen una revisión documental, un diagnóstico de actividades actuales, la caracterización de factores didácticos de las TIC y la sistematización de la estrategia didáctica. La metodología adopta un enfoque mixto, combinando aspectos cualitativos y cuantitativos, con un diseño no experimental y técnicas de recolección de datos como escalas, fichas sociodemográficas, registros de observación y análisis académicos. La muestra consta de 30 estudiantes. Como conclusión final, se establece que las habilidades sociales son fundamentales para el desarrollo personal y profesional, las habilidades sociales como la comunicación, empatía y autoestima mejoran cuando se promueven actividades que integran el uso de los recursos digitales como Educaplay.
