RESUMO:

This research focuses on the study of a public policy of digital inclusion, Connect Equality Program (PCI), that research its performance in a local setting, the province of Salta in Argentina. Was analyzed the distinctive role played by the state management sphere to introduce it, within the framework of the plan, the work with information and communication technologies (ICT) in schools. This was done through an approach that is included in socio-technical studies, particularly in the line of social constructivism that tries to show the social nature of technology and the technological nature of society. In the first place, the trajectory of the plan was investigated, through the reconstruction and analysis of the documentary production of the official policy, understanding that its design was configured within the whole process of structuring the PCI. At the same time, were described the central elements by this understood, which allowed to argue that it was a public policy of new development. Likewise, it was possible to identify, through the field research in some schools in Salta and in the offices of the Ministry of Education of the province, the first adaptations of the national program in the jurisdiction of Salta; then the transformations that this suffers from the change of federal administration occurred at the end of 2015, based on the exploration of official documents, secondary sources, field observations and interviews. The most significant of these changes was the completion of the 1: 1 model and a notorious program underfunding, with greater emphasis starting in 2018. At the same time, other initiatives related to digital education, which come together in the national portfolio, come from the national portfolio. the modification of the name of the program in two opportunities, the elaboration of a set of didactic-pedagogical propositions with a line of work that has as axis the robotics and the programming. In the meantime, we saw that in the province, the institutional structure of the PCI continued until 2018 and, until then, the replacement equipment of the one-on-one model (through Mobile Digital Classrooms and robotic and programming kits) within a period of two years only reached a small percentage of schools. Secondly, the relevant social groups involved in the process of implementing this policy were characterized, which produced a shift from an approach focused on the action of governments to a consideration of the context of the practice of their agents, as another dimension of public policy study. The performance of program officials at the jurisdictional level was analyzed from that level, focusing on the Institutional Technical Reference (RTI) as a key instance of the whole process of the program's development from the beginning. On the basis of the study of several witness cases, the interaction of this agent with the school was analyzed, being able to notice that its own profile, practice and type of intervention constitutes a differential factor of the different ways in which the PCI is implemented, translated and updated. It could also be seen that in this figure the responsibility for work with the technologies is deposited within the school, either to maintain/manage the technological system, to design, to manage and to execute any type of initiative that involves the other actors of the educative community. In contrast, the absence of educational projects promoted by local school institutions to include ICTs was evident, as well as the weakened involvement of provincial administration of the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MECyT), which are outside the program.
