Factors influencing the Integration of the Digital Literacy and Inclusion Program into Primary School Teaching

Abstract

The present investigation aims to identify the factors related to the integration of the Inclusion and Digital Literacy Program (IDLP or PIAD in Spanish) in the activities carried out by elementary school teachers in Mexican public institutes. To that end, a quantitative methodology with an explanatory scope was used, along with a sample size of 203 teachers from a county south of the state of Sonora, Mexico. Four remaining factors from the theoretical review (educative, personal, pragmatic and contextual) were measured and the results obtained show that the variables associated to the personal factor of the professor are those that are able to explain and impact to a greater degree the integration of the program. It concludes the presence of a manifested necessity in regards to the reformulation and development of capacitation programs and awareness over the impact of technology and the benefits that it brings with the purpose of accomplishing the learning process.
