Enhancing digital competencies in schools: The role of ICT coordinators

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This article discusses the growing importance of digital competencies in education, specifically focusing on the role of technical infrastructure in schools and staff support strategies. The discussion aims at the introduction of the ICT coordinator role in Czech Republic schools. Analysis indicates that schools with an ICT coordinator exhibit improved technology access for students and teachers, not solely determined by computer quantity per pupil. Noteworthy differences lie in the flexibility and availability of technology, with ICT coordinator-aided schools having more mobile computers, mobile labs, and more vital facilitation of BYOD methods. In conclusion, while recognizing the partial nature of school technology equipment data, the article concludes that training teachers and implementing the ICT coordinator role positively impact ICT technology use in schools. Recommendations based on Czech Republic research include establishing the ICT coordinator position, providingfinancial incentives, and reducing direct teaching loads. Future research should track changes in ICT equipment during ICT coordinators&apos; tenures and explore technology deployment dynamics, emphasizing collaboration between ICT coordinators, school management, and individual teachers.
