The COVID-19 situation naturalized the emergence of new teaching practices, and the use of educational technologies, in a context of transformation of the participation of seniors. The objective of the work consists in the evaluation of an intergenerational experience that occurred in the pandemic through the use of new technologies. An exploratory descriptive study was carried out using a questionnaire as an instrument, created ad hoc, with open and closed questions, with the aim of evaluating, through the opinion of 108 participants, a virtual intergenerational experience was evaluated between students of the social education degree and older people from social centers, to find out their needs, and offer a resource incorporated from the classroom. This is not just a theoretical difference. This situation is having repercussions on policies, but also on the way of attending to the educational and cultural needs of the elderly, which are clearly being diminished due to the coronavirus.
