COMPETENCES AND METHODS OF USING INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY AMONGST PRE-SCHOOL AND PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS
Usage of information and communication technology amongst pre-school and primary school teachers is increasing and requires digital competences and knowledge. The overall objective of this research is to compare usage competences for information and communication technology (ICT) amongst pre-school teachers (for children 3-6 years old) and primary school teachers (for pupils 7-10 years old). These specific goals have been oriented to measure the frequency of ICT and Internet usage for professional development and free time, determine any independency in ICT usage and measure if there are any differences in knowledge updating between preschool and primary school teachers. An ICTC Questionnaire with 27 items has been created for the purpose of this research. The respondents were 394 preschool teachers and 200 primary school teachers. The survey was conducted anonymously and on a voluntary basis between 2016 and 2017. Results showed that preschool and primary school teachers use ICT and Internet nearly every day. Both groups need additional support and help. Preschool teachers mostly use digital technology for communication, information searches and reading news, while primary school teachers use digital technology predominantly to search for general information, rather than information linked to their profession, as well as for communication. Primary school teachers developed more digital competences comparing to their preschool counterparts. These results could be used to create workshops and life-long educational opportunities for both groups of teachers, with a focus to using digital technology and the Internet for preschool teachers. Follow up activities could be created in the form of focus groups or group discussion which could provide additional information linked to specific knowledge or skills that require development.
