We investigated how often teachers apply digital technology in their teaching and which student learning activities teachers initiate. Further, we analyzed factors relating to technology use. 410 teachers in our sample, representative for the state of Bavaria (Germany), reported that they spend a substantial amount of time using digital technologies in a typical lesson. Results indicated that rather teachers’ basic digital skills and technology-related teaching skills than digital technology resources are crucial. Even though a certain threshold level of digital technology is necessary in school, our results suggest shifting the focus from equipping schools to teachers’ skills using technologies effectively.

我们调查了教师在教学中多久使用数字技术，以及教师开展了哪些学生学习活动。此外，我们分析了与技术使用有关的因素。我们样本中的410名教师代表了巴伐利亚州（德国），他们报告说，在典型的课程中，他们花费大量时间使用数字技术。结果表明，与数字技术资源相比，教师的基本数字技能和与技术相关的教学技能至关重要。即使在学校中必须要有一定的数字技术门槛，但我们的研究结果表明，应将重点从装备学校转移到有效使用技术的教师技能上。
