Introduction: This research main aim has been to stimulate the conceptual and procedural understanding of students of technical careers through a methodology that is applied during the design and implementation of online courses, which are based on Learning Objects. Method: We applied a harmonized Object-Oriented Hypermedia Design Method (OOHDM) and the methodology for the Creation of Learning Objects (CROA) for the production of a course in Information Security as proof of the concept. The course has been developed with an academic license of Articulate Studio for the content and assessments as well as with Ardora for developing learning activities. Both of them were introduced within Moodle as virtual teaching and learning environment (VLE). For cases of self-assessment and reflection, the Learning Based on Problems (ABP) has been applied, which also promotes collaborative experiences between students and learners. For the evaluation of the usability of the course, the LORI matrix for the evaluation of learning objects we have used. Results: The results demonstrate firstly the theoretical and practical validated methodological procedure, and secondly, they indicate the student´s satisfaction regarding the organization, content and functionality of the course. Conclusion: The blend application of the OOHDM, CROA and LBP methodologies allow to structure systematically and pedagogically educational materials, which are based on Learning Objects for online courses to improve conceptual and procedural comprehension in students of technical careers.
