The following article presents the intervention carried out with first semester students of the Nursing and Bacteriology programs of the Universidad Católica de Manizales in the teaching of chemistry mediated by ICT. These programs are offered face-to-face, but due to the covid-19 contingency, they were offered virtually with the support of ICT. For this purpose, an initial survey was carried out to identify the students’ perception about the subject of chemistry, teaching through ICT and the use of virtual laboratories and simulators to promote laboratory practices. In this sense, it was possible to analyze the change that was obtained once the academic semester ended, where students gave a satisfactory response to the teaching of chemistry and laboratory practices through the use of ICT as a pedagogical tool. It was possible to conclude that the educational processes supported by ICT tools favored the disposition and motivation of students towards the processes of teaching and learning chemistry as an experimental science, all this with the support of teachers and institutional guidelines.
