Abstract

Digital competence is of utmost importance due to its direct link to the use of technologies, a key ability in the 21st-century society. However, research analyses neither pre-service bilingual teachers’ digital competence nor its relationship with emergency remote teaching in situations such as that caused by COVID-19. Following a quantitative analysis, this paper compares the perceptions regarding teacher digital competence of two groups of pre-service bilingual teachers. Findings reveal an overall positive perceived competence. Moreover, significant differences are observed in favor of men in terms of sex and in terms of received instruction in favor of emergency remote teaching versus face-to-face teaching. It is also concluded the need for specific training for teachers to develop their digital competence, as well as the necessity to experience emergency remote teaching situations.
