Proficiency of teachers’ digital content creation

Abstract

In this paper, we explore the proficiency in digital competencies of around 1,400 Slovenian teachers from 70 primary and secondary schools. Our main research question was: How proficient are teachers in the area of Digital content creation and what differences are observed across various projects? A quantitative survey methodology was employed to assess teachers’ competence in creating digital content. The findings reveal that teachers generally demonstrate basic to intermediate proficiency that varies across specific sub-competencies. Programming is by far the least developed sub-competence. The results highlight the ongoing need for targeted teachers’ professional development of digital competencies in order for students to benefit.
