The Importance of Teacher Digitization for Inclusive, Critical and Equitable Education

There is a growing need and interest in providing teachers with these competencies, creating frameworks and diagnostic tools that help teachers to self-assess themselves to receive training and guidance programs according to their needs. The aim of this research work is to know, through a specific questionnaire based on the SELFIE tool, the digital competencies of future teachers, and how they put them at the service of a more inclusive education in their classrooms. The results show that the digital competencies of future teachers are not specifically addressed in university education, nor is there any reflection on the needs and social uses made of the digitization of education. More than half of the teachers do not have the necessary training to address the digital divide and other issues related to technology and social justice. In any case, it is those with the most training in ICT who argue that new technologies improve the quality of teaching. Master's students are aware of the importance of having the necessary knowledge to use these technologies in a conscious, critical, and democratic way in their future teaching, but they do not find the adequate training required by the new educational paradigm.
