Resumen

This research was carried out with the objective of determining the influence that participation in the Conectate Program has on the development of a school’s digital teaching experience and providing suggestions on ways in which the program could be improved. To achieve this objective, an applied study of a quantitative approach was carried out that used the technique hypothetically deducible from a pre-experimental study design. The sample for the research consisted of 200 educators working in secondary schools. The researchers collected data by administering questionnaires and an online questionnaire in test format. After collecting and evaluating the results, they concluded that only thirty percent of teachers were showing signs of progression, while 70 percent had reached a plateau. Using this curriculum to help teachers improve their digital fluency has been shown to be a viable option. Wilcoxon test results indicate that the Connect program is effective in helping instructors acquire digital pedagogical skills (p-value = 0.001). If the percentage that is collected can be used to verify that the program is being applied adequately, the expansion of the program will be beneficial.
