Abstract

SANTOS, Gilberto Lacerda. Promoting the digital inclusion of in-service teachers: a research synthesis on bonds between teachers, new media and emerging cultural events in the school. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.3, pp.529-543. ISSN 0101-7136.  https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v39i3.28790.

The article presents the results of a Research Synthesis which focused on identifying those factors most likely to boost the digital inclusion of in-service teachers. Four Master theses, carried out between 2011 and 2013, were the basis for the meta-analytic research. Their results are presented, discussed and contextualised. The general findings suggest that certain factors which promote the digital inclusion of in-service teachers (immersion and computer literacy) should be prioritized over others (mobilization and instrumentation). The paper points to the complexity of the on-going formation of teachers, especially when it comes to the construction and development of skills, abilities and attitudes towards the new media and emerging cultures in the school.

Keywords : Digital Culture; On-going Teacher Formation; Digital Inclusion.
