Type: review
Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Over the last years, Information and Communication Technologies have played a substantial role in improving both the quality of life for people. However, their potential in education is still developing. In this regard, this paper provides a systematic review of the literature on digital competencies and teacher professional development from 2008 to 2018. The purpose of this study is identifying research trends and potential directions on this topic for future research. The method followed is based on the PRISMA Statement Guidelines for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis. After applying criteria of inclusion, exclusion and thematic belonging, in Scopus and Wos databases, the sample was constituted in 21 studies. The selected studies emphasise the importance of digital competence as one of the challenges facing teachers today, being mainly qualitative methodology studies. Among the conclusions we highlight that most of the selected studies reveal a lack of teacher training and insufficient ICT training.
