Conceptual analysis of digital competence models of university teacher

Digital competence or ICT competence is a concept that has defined a research line of great relevance in the last five years in the field of Educational Technology, related to both teachers and any other social or educational agent. Our approach is based on the idea that digital competence is part of teachers' professional competence in every educational system level. This article presents a documental research in two phases: 1) first we focus on the conceptual analysis of the most relevant studies around digital competence and 2) based on this previous analysis, a descriptive and comparative analysis of different digital competence models of university teacher is performed in a second phase. This analysis shows that all of these models have dimensions and common elements, but also some special features that are of interest in dealing with research on the subject. In addition, this study will serve as a starting point for our research about the certification of ICT skills of university teacher. This Research is being carried out by the Research Group of Educational Technology of the University of Murcia.
