Abstract
In the light of different studies carried out at European and national level, it is unclear if the use of Information Society Technologies (ISTs) in the teaching-learning process is fulfilling initial expectations. Considering that teachers are the keystone upon which the required transformation is to be built, we consider the following questions: are teachers digitally illiterate? Do they have other reasons for not integrating ISTs in their classrooms? This research consists of a descriptive study of the teaching staff in the Autonomous City of Melilla. An ad hoc questionnaire was designed and administered to the pre-university teachers of the city. A sample of 173 teachers from the different stages of non-university level was obtained. After carrying out a descriptive and inferential analysis of the data obtained, a certain level of digital illiteracy among teachers was found, mainly in the didactic application of ISTs. Some solutions are given for teachers to improve their digital literacy to face the demands of 21st century society.
