Abstract
This is an exploratory study which aims to identify analytical dimensions that allow understanding the representations of classroom practices mediated by ICTs in the images of school classes presented in the articles of the written press. Sociomaterial and Multimodal perspective categories are recovered to understand the regularities and the differences in the meanings that these images construct even in different countries. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the scenes, the actors (students, teachers), the forms of interaction and the artifacts that are privileged in the media discourse about ICTs in schools developed in South America. In the analysis of the learning events with ICTs that are represented in written press we can find some relation patterns in which the notebook is part.
