Description
Summary:Today’s society is characterised by the impact of technology in all areas of life, which is why promoting the development of digital competence in future preschool and primary school teachers is key to achieving a digitally competent population and promoting social progress from schools. This paper describes the implementation of a funded teaching innovation project developed with students of the Degrees in Preschool Education and Primary School Education at the University of Valencia, Spain. The main objective was the development of digital competence from a cross-cutting perspective. The analyses confirm the improvement of the participants in all areas of digital competence and the influence of gender on the results obtained. This highlights the impact of the intervention for the improvement of technological skills for future teachers.
