Teachers’ digital competencias for mediation in hybrid learning environments

Abstract

As a result of the confinement due to the global pandemic of covid-19, teachers and students found themselves in the inevitable situation of suddenly moving from the traditional face-toface model to virtual environments, with the demand for new digital skills and computer resources. The purpose of this scientific article was to describe the digital teaching competence, the main problems that the educational community faced to join virtual environments, as well as the proposals that originated to perform expeditiously in this new modality. The research was based on a systematic review of scientific articles on digital teaching competence in virtual environments in the context of the pandemic, in the Scopus database, with the support of Redalyc, Scielo, Dialnet, Elsevier and Google Scholar. The results show that the digital teaching competence still does not present an optimal level, so the most recurring solution proposal is the training and development of the digital teaching competence. Since to date the direction followed by the actors involved in virtual learning is uncertain, this investigation culminates by proposing an alternative solution.
