Resumen

Este artículo presenta un estudio en el que se mide la importancia para los docentes de los factores de sostenibilidad digital que facilitan o inhiben la adopción de app educativas como apoyo al proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la Educación Primaria. Se ha empleado una metodología basada en un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para realizar el análisis de importancia-valor (IPA). IPA tiene como objetivo identificar el valor asignado por los usuarios en términos de importancia y desempeño de una serie de criterios de calidad para obtener una medida indirecta de los elementos de sostenibilidad digital que fomentan o desincentivan la adopción app educativas. La muestra estuvo conformada por 212 docentes con experiencia en el uso de apps en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Los resultados muestran cuatro áreas de sostenibilidad digital que precisan mejora para garantizar un buen uso educativo y sostenible de las aplicaciones dentro y fuera del aula: uso seguro y transparente de datos y algoritmos, la adecuación de las app a la diversidad funcional de todos los estudiantes, la promoción de entornos colaborativos seguros y la necesidad de concienciación en materia de eficiencia energética
