Formación en competencias digitales: análisis a docentes de bachillerato en instituciones del Ecuador

Abstract

Abstract: The research focused on the development of digital competencies in experimental science teachers in high school in Ecuador, and was to propose a continuous training plan to improve these competencies. The research was carried out in several high school educational institutions, with a sample of 120 teachers. A combination of bibliographic and field research techniques was used, with the survey as the main field research technique to systematically collect quantitative information. The research instruments included a survey designed to collect information on teachers' continuing education needs, and Microsoft Excel, which was used for data processing and analysis. The research concluded that experimental science teachers at the baccalaureate level in Ecuador have a variable level of digital competence, and there is a need for continuous training to improve these competencies. It also highlighted the importance of digital competencies in education and the need for teachers to be equipped with these skills to adapt to the constant changes in the digital world.
