Abstract

Lately the use of digital educational applications as a tool for the education of convalescent students has proliferated. However, few studies have comprehensively reviewed the use of information and com-
munication technology (ICT) and other resources used in hospital teaching. This study performs an analysis of the progress made in existing research on this type of educational experiences, evaluating the impact of ICT and checking that hospitalized students may connect with the educational community and its environment. The methodology employed was a literature review which allowed us to organize, classify and analyze documentary sources on the subject of study. The results revealed the importance of the quality of connections with the outside world in projects of ICT integration and the development and impact of innovative educational applications. We conclude by highlighting that ICT has improved communication
and coordination among schools, families and hospitals. It has also offered new ways to learn which are mediated through digitized resources.
