  ABSTRACT: We shall present a descriptive, quantitative study with the purpose of analyzing the technological and connectivity resources that teachers had during the preventive period of COVID-19 in the year 2021. We analyzed the technological and connectivity resources at home; the resources, tools or strategies used by teachers, the platforms used to communicate, as well as the difficulties that students faced to be able to carry out distance education. A survey was applied to 225 teachers in the Public Teacher Training Schools in the state of Baja California Sur. We found that most of the teachers had connectivity (Internet) and computer equipment at home. The main technological resource used was the cellular phone and their main support was the GoogleClassroom platform. They communicated with their students through WhatsApp; most of the students had lack of connectivity and access to equipment.
