Abstract
This study investigates the teaching-learning process and the use of digital tools in accounting education for students at the "Vicente Fierro" Higher Technological Institute, located in the city of Tulcan, Carchi Province, Ecuador. It focuses on the integration of a web-based accounting application, based on a mixed-method and field research approach, collecting qualitative and quantitative data for numerical analysis. The study begins with a diagnosis of the use of digital tools, identifying that Excel is currently used at the Institute. Subsequently, students are trained in accounting software management through real-world case studies. The research analyzes the challenges of using ICTs, followed by a statistical study, and evaluates the implementation of the application. In our study, the sample consists of 33 surveyed students regarding the integration of technologies in accounting education. The objective is to demonstrate that this approach strengthens technical and vocational education and training, helping students become familiar with essential technologies for their professional careers, increasing their confidence in their competencies and educational experiences. In this way, they will be able to meet business requirements and facilitate their entry into the job market.
