Abstract

The ICT competences of teachers are a key variable for ICT integration in school. This paper presents a framework of indicators of competence for two dimensions from a MIMIC model: the first one of technological competences and the second one, of pedagogical competences. The model includes the definition of a specific relationship between these dimensions and also the effects of a set of relevant factors: personal (genre, age and frequency of computer use) and contextual (type of educational institution, educational stage and access to computer classroom). The information was collected through a questionnaire answered by a sample of 868 teachers of elementary and secondary education in Comunidad Valenciana. The results confirm a stable relational structure between both dimensions of competence, where the technological competence influences the pedagogical competence. Also, the model shows the influences of contextual and personal variables on these dimensions. The model used points the urgent need to study the dimensions related to ICT in education from a more complex perspective that can more clearly show those relationships.
