Summary/Abstract: Permanent education has become not only a requirement, but an unavoidable necessity to respond to the requirements of the school, as a precise change for the quality of teaching and teacher training (Imbernón, 2014). The need for a permanent education is driven and/or promoted by the changes that society is generating, simultaneously, in the training and education processes, since the incorporation of ICT in these processes has caused a change in the relationship between the didactic components. Therefore, pedagogical practice must adopt new forms of work that adapt to the new training needs. Consequently, it can be said that education does not remain external to changes and incorporates new media in its didactic relationship, which causes a redefinition of the teacher’s work and, surely of the teaching profession, of its formation and its development professional (Sangrà & González Sanmamed, 2011).
