Abstract

With the spreading of multimedia educative materials use in Primary Education in Spain, it seems pertinent to analyse how these resources represent the diversity of gender, ability, sexual orientation, cultural/ethnic diversity or age variations in our society. This is one of the aims of the project The school of the digital society: analysis and proposals for the production and use of educational digital contents, which is being developed nowadays in Spain, specifically in Galicia, Valencia and the Canary Islands. Therefore, a methodology of mixed (quantitative and qualitative) study has been applied, focused on the analysis of a sample of 56 multimedia materials, located in institutional commercial and online collaboration platforms of the aforementioned autonomous communities. Among the most outstanding results, it is worth mentioning a greater tendency towards the visibility of women –especially in that resources present in collaborative teaching repositories-, although it is continued the concealment of certain groups analyzed in its iconic-textual content.
