The purpose of this research is, on the one hand, to analyze the self-perception of future teachers of childhood education and primary education, and those studying for a master’s degree in secondary education teacher training on their Teacher Digital Competence (TDC), as well as the potential influence of gender, country and university institution of origin in their representations. On the other hand, it seeks to analyze the perception of future teachers on the TDC of their university trainers (formative perception). In accordance with these aims, a quantitative methodology of a non-experimental nature and of a prospective cross-sectional ex post facto approach has been used. A total of 428 students from two Spanish universities and from a French university agreed to participate in the research. The results report a positive and differential self-perception by gender of the TDC acquired and unfavorable perceptions of the digital competences of their teachers. These results confirm the need to improve the technological-manipulative and didactic training of university teachers, and to adapt the teaching competences to the demands of the Information and Communication Society (ICS) and to the guidelines of the Common Digital Competence Framework.

Motivational development represents a key element for academic performance in the university context. A non-experimental study with a cross-sectional and ex post facto design through a single measurement in a single group was conducted. The sample was made up of a total of 2736 university students (♂ = 33.8% (n = 924); ♀ = 66.2% (n = 1812)) belonging to a total of 19 Spanish universities. The main instrument used was the Basic Psychological Needs scale, using the IBM SPSS 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) software for data analysis. The results showed that the need for autonomy was higher in social sciences students, those who accessed their studies through vocational training and those who attended their degree in person. In addition, this need was positively related to score, but inversely related to age and grade. The need for competence was higher in students who studied in private centers, those who accessed their university studies through other ways and those students who studied online. Likewise, this need was directly related to the score. Finally, it should be noted that the need for relationships was higher in university students from public institutions, students who accessed their studies through vocational training and those who studied in face-to-face universities. The need for a relationship correlated positively with the score, although with less strength than other needs. In this way, the relevance of various academic factors in the motivational development of students can be established, from which various educational implications are derived in order to favor academic performance.

Without having a reaction time, the pandemic has caused an unprecedented transformation in universities around the world, leading to a revolution from structured models anchored in the conception of transmission of training towards a teaching approach-learning saved thanks to the incorporation of technology. This study aims to verify whether the pandemic situation has influenced the digital competence self-perception of students. Comparing two groups during the academic years 2019/2020 and 2020/2021, the instrument used is the questionnaire for digital competence “DigCompEdu Check-In” for future teachers. After the educational intervention, group A (before COVID-19) presented higher self-perceptions of competence than group B (during COVID-19); the pandemic situation caused by COVID-19 has negatively influenced students’ self-perception of their digital skills in the pretest in the different dimensions under study. Before receiving the training, the group that did not experience the pandemic enjoyed a higher self-perception of their competencies than the group that experienced the pandemic. The data obtained indicate that the difference exists, and that it is statistically significant, and may be a consequence of the clear relationship between self-perception and the way in which students face reality through their personal and subjective vision.

The global public health crisis unleashed by the COVID-19 pandemic has made it clear that digital competence in education is no longer an option, but a necessity. Online communication with friends using social networks is an activity in which young people very frequently and at increasingly early ages engage. This article presents the results of a study analyses digital-competence levels in the area of communication of Spanish basic-education students (aged 12–16) and establishes whether online communication with friends and the use of social media impact it. A quantitative methodology with a descriptive and cross-sectional design was used. The sample comprised 807 students, and data collection was based on a problem-solving test. Findings show that students who use online communication with their friends very often and that those who use social networks a lot have lower levels of digital competence. Education centres should reflect on this in order to implement curricular programs that may strengthen this type of competence.

Hablar de inclusión a nivel de centro inevitablemente lleva consigo hablar de una relación activa y positiva entre familia y escuela. En esta línea, se ha constatado la importancia de la participación de las familias en los centros escolares y su consecuente mejora en el rendimiento académico del alumnado; considerándose un factor clave en la prevención del abandono escolar. Este artículo se centra en determinar la perspectiva de las familias respecto al liderazgo inclusivo desarrollado por los equipos directivos, tales como los procesos de apertura hacia la comunidad y acciones que promuevan la participación, cooperación y reflexión hacia la diversidad en pro de un aprendizaje para todos. Se trata de una investigación cuantitativa de carácter descriptivo; la muestra estuvo compuesta por familiares de alumnos (N = 150). Utilizamos como herramienta el cuestionario: “Liderando la Educación Inclusiva” (LEI-Q). Los resultados muestran que las familias consideran que sus equipos directivos han implantado “sustancialmente” la mayor parte de las acciones que contribuyen a que sus centros sean inclusivos, promoviendo estrategias que reduzcan el abandono escolar. De esta manera se hace notable la necesidad de involucrar a las familias, para garantizar el éxito educativo y estimular a finalizar los estudios obligatorios y a continuar con una formación posterior. Talking about inclusion at a school level inevitably “involves an active and positive relationship between families and schools” (Simón, Giné y Echeita, 2016, p. 26). Along these lines, the importance of family participation in schools has been reported to lead to improvements in students’ academic performance, which, in turn, stands out as a key factor in the prevention of early school leaving. This article aims to determine the views of families on inclusive leadership measures developed by management teams, such as (i) opening the center to the community and the environment; and (ii) actions to encourage participation, address diversity, and prevent and manage conflict in centers so that learning can be for everybody. This is a descriptive quantitative investigation. In this sense, our sample is composed of students’ relatives (N = 150), who were asked to complete the questionnaire “Leading Inclusive Education” (LEI-Q) (León et al., 2016). This research is an ex post-facto cross-sectional investigation of a descriptive nature. The results obtained indicate that families perceive the efforts made by school management teams to foster inclusive schools, which, in turn, promotes strategies that reduce school dropout. In this way, it is essential to involve families in order to guarantee educational success and stimulate students’ completion of compulsory education and to continue their further training.

The main goal of this research is to explore whether there are any differences by gender regarding the Digital Competence of Teachers (DCT), both in-training and in-service. Simultaneously, the specific goals of the research are to analyse which are the methodologies, including technological, that are being implemented in university classrooms and to evaluate possible new interventions to reduce the digital gender gap. This study is exploratory and descriptive. It relies upon three instruments that have been validated by experts: a questionnaire to collect teachers’ in-training perception, a second questionnaire to show in-service teachers’ perception regarding their knowledge of technologies, and a rubric to analyse in-service teachers’ self-perception regarding methodologies that employ technology. Over three academic years, data were collected from a sample of 914 trainee teachers and 194 professors from several Spanish universities. The results show that, concerning the teaching task, compared to men, the female participants have a very poor self-perception in terms of their Digital Teaching Competence, as well as a lower predisposition towards technologies. We conclude by emphasising the need to transform teaching methodologies in initial teacher education by means of the correct inclusion of ICT tools.
