ANALYSIS OF THE DIGITAL COMPETENCIES OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS: A QUALITATIVE RESEARCH BASED ON DigCompEdu

Abstract

The objectives of this work are to investigate the technological profile of basic education teachers and to identify the level of digital competence of these teachers, based on DigCompEdu, to carry out pedagogical activities. To achieve the proposed objectives, a research was carried out through an in-depth interview with a group of teachers from the city of Torres, RS. This article is an applied, descriptive and qualitative research. We observed that the levels of digital competence of the teachers vary from explorer to specialist and that these participants have possibilities of greater progression in these levels, since they seek to carry out training in this sense and are always improving themselves to improve the teaching and learning process in the digital age.
