En el presente trabajo se analiza la incidencia de la mediación del ordenador en la resolución de problemas y en los procesos de interacción entre parejas de alumnos de la Enseñanza Secundaria Obligatoria. Para ello, se diseña e implementa una propuesta de enseñanza-aprendizaje que guía el proceso de resolución de problemas e incide en los procesos de interacción entre iguales. Esta propuesta se realiza en dos modalidades o contextos de aprendizaje distintos:un contexto utiliza la mediación del ordenador y el otro contexto no.
El análisis de los resultados obtenidos en nuestro trabajo muestra la incidencia positiva de la mediación de la hoja de cálculo en el proceso de aprendizaje de los alumnos y en los procesos de interacción que presentan las distintas parejas durante la resolución de un problema. Los alumnos que han resuelto los problemas con la hoja de cálculo obtienen resultados estadísticamente superiores a los obtenidos por los alumnos que no han utilizado esta herramienta informática y presentan, principalmente, una interacción compartida.
