Digital Educational Resources (DER): analysis of integration in classrooms by primary and secondary education teachers

In the current era of digital transformation in education, it is crucial to understand the implementation of digital educational resources by educators and how they perceive this change in their practice. A quantitative study has been conducted through a perception questionnaire, focusing on primary and secondary school teachers. The focus is on the use of digital educational resources, with emphasis on those provided by the Ministry of Education of the Government of the Canary Islands. The purpose is to unravel questions such as: How often do teachers integrate these resources? Do they combine digital materials with traditional textbooks? The results show that the majority of teachers in the Canary Islands incorporate digital educational resources into their daily routine, while only 30% mention the use of textbooks. It can be inferred that both digital media and books coexist in classrooms, with the former becoming increasingly prominent. Additionally, a positive perception of teachers regarding their role as creators of digital content is identified. Regarding the use of public platforms and portals for resources, the surveyed teachers seem to show low utilization of institutional platforms.
