INTRODUCTION
Within the Spanish university context, the teaching methodology needed to adapt to the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) requires the integration of Information and Communications Technologies (ICTs) into the training process. Salmon and Jones (2004) sustain that the inclusion of ICT in syllabi acts as a driving force for learning and brings about educative innovation. Research into ICTs is found at the different educational levels, is derived from innovative experiences and highlights the relevance of ICTs for collection and dissemination of information, communications within the educational community, online collaboration, etc. Cavusa and Kanbulb (2010) indicated some of the advantages of using e-learning platforms such as for sending and receiving work/ exercises, providing immediate feedback in tests, communicating with teachers and other colleagues, accessing training information and carrying out collaborative work. Other authors pointed to the importance of ICTs to follow-up learning, develop communications and plan the teaching process (Cavus, 2010; Lonn and Teasley, 2009).
