Teachers’ perception of technology integration in learning spaces
Abstract
The definition of the characteristics of a learning space places us before the existence of three dimensions of key analysis for its conceptual design, the environmental dimension, the pedagogical dimension and the digital dimension (Bautista and Borges, 2013). The article shows the results of a research that aims to know the knowledge, preferences, perceptions and needs of teachers regarding the configuration of the classroom as a learning space, specifically in relation to the digital dimension. To do this, a quantitative study was carried out using the survey method of a sample of 847 preschool, primary and secondary education teachers. The results obtained show that teachers identify the digital dimension and consider that this should be one of the key elements to propose new learning spaces in schools.
