In this paper, using evolutionary game theory tools, we analyze the evolution of the behaviors of professors, students and schools towards the use of the information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the teaching-learning process in the post-pandemic era, for this purpose we will use the replicator dynamics and we will show that solutions to this dynamical system could indicate the evolution that the teaching-learning processes will follow over time in the post-pandemic world.
