Abstract

The global crisis caused by the current COVID19 pandemic has placed the distance teaching-learning process at the centre of educational practices at all educational stages, making clear the importance of training university teaching staff in digital competences. Given this approach, the purpose of this study is to analyse the use of ICT resources focused on teaching, learning and research tasks by Spanish Higher Education teaching staff according to gender, as well as the influence of certain academic variables on the use of these technological resources through correlational analysis. To this end, a non-experimental design with the UTIC-EEI instrument (use of ICT resources for teaching, assessment and research) was used with a sample of 867 university teachers. The results show a moderate level of mastery of digital tools and resources for teaching, assessment and research. These results require reflection on the part of educational organisations in order to establish training plans that meet these needs. For this reason, several lines of action related to teacher training with not only technical but also pedagogical content are proposed.
