Incorporation of technology in education has revolutionized the teaching and learning process. Among the tools and platforms developed to enhance education, EVEA (Entorno Virtual de Enseñanza y Aprendizaje) has gained significant interest. EVEA provides diverse activities and learning resources for interactive learning. As Universidad Nacional de Educación (UNAE) integrates EVEA into its academic programs, it becomes crucial to analyze the activities and learning resources employed by university faculty when designing virtual classrooms.

Files and URLs were the primary learning resources used by professors. Furthermore, participants perceived EVEA as a valuable vehicle for accessing resources, flexible learning, and engaging students. On the other hand, challenges encompass technology disparities, digital skills, and student distractions. Lastly, recommendations entail thorough training, dedicated support platforms, and teacher collaboration to maximize EVEA's potential.
