The project

Digital platforms in education

In recent years, there have been significant changes in the educational field resulting from the forced acceleration of digitalization in schools following the global COVID-19 pandemic. In order to respond to the continuity of schooling and promote the development of digital education, it was decided to incorporate large technology corporations into the educational context. The integration of digital technologies in education, especially the digital platforms used in teaching and learning processes, represents a challenge for educational systems around the world, particularly with regard to guaranteeing the protection of children in these new digital contexts.

Project phases

The project is divided into four phases, which will be executed between 2023 and 2026.

Phase 1

Identification and analysis of regulations, visions and knowledge on the use of digital platforms in education and on the management of data derived from their use in primary education

10 semi-structured interviews with experts

Phase 2

Development of 11 case studies in schools

Phase 3

Implementation of surveys for teachers and families

Phase 4

Dissemination of research results, development of policy and educational suggestions and return to participating centres

Participants

The project is made up of three Spanish universities, from Catalonia, Castilla-La Mancha and the Valencian Community.

Universitat de Barcelona
Universitat de Castilla-La Mancha
Universitat de València
