Abstract

Abstract: In Ecuador, digital skills and educational innovation have acquired great importance in the current educational context. The Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the need for teachers to acquire digital skills to face the challenges of distance education. Despite the difficulties, this crisis has represented an opportunity to transform and reinvent education. It is essential to ensure instrumental-didactic training for teachers, as well as the use of effective models that can be applied in their environment and support their teaching work. In this sense, the importance of ongoing training and updating of teachers in new teaching-learning experiences and training has been highlighted. Teachers must stay updated and adapt to the needs of digital native students and effectively use new technologies in their teaching. However, some teachers face challenges in adapting to new technologies or dealing with limitations in connectivity or digital devices. It is necessary to address these challenges and find solutions to ensure equal opportunities in digital learning.
