This article is part of a research project aimed to broaden the understanding of the established gap between policies regarding the use of digital technology and the actual use of digital technology in Norway. To understand this gap we have conducted a comparative study between teacher education in Norway and teacher education in New Zealand, two countries with quite different approaches to implementing digital technology in education. We found several interesting differences between the countries. The regression analysis and the correlation analysis show that the professional use of digital tools correlates with the teacher educators’ level of digital competence in New Zealand. On the other hand, in Norway the professional use of digital tools correlates stronger with teacher educators’ attitudes towards digital technology in education. Attitudes has a stronger influence (impact) than digital competence regarding to what extent digital tools are being used in Norway, and digital competence has a stronger influence than attitudes regarding to what extent digital tools are being used in New Zealand.

教师教育工作者对使用数字技术的看法

本文是一项研究项目的一部分，旨在扩大对挪威数字技术使用政策与数字技术实际使用之间既定差距的理解。为了理解这一差距，我们对挪威的教师教育和新西兰的教师教育进行了比较研究，这两个国家在教育中实施数字技术的方法截然不同。我们发现了国家之间的几个有趣的差异。回归分析和相关分析表明，数字工具的专业使用与新西兰教师教育工作者的数字能力水平相关。另一方面，在挪威，数字工具的专业使用与教师教育工作者对教育中数字技术的态度密切相关。
