| Abstract: | This study explores models of digital learning in public educational institutions, focusing on good practices aimed at bringing about instrumental and methodological change, and encouraging the adoption of new values and greater social justice. It identifies challenges and opportunities to propose a dynamic model of public policy on digital education. Eighteen public educational institutions associated with good digital practices in Andalusia (Spain) participated in the study. Using a descriptive method with a survey design, three questionnaires were administered at the institutions. The results confirm the importance of collective practice in encouraging the introduction of digital technologies in educational institutions. The conclusions show that a participatory culture and innovative teaching initiatives can facilitate the digital integration, on which the proposed policy model is based. The study proposes a policy model based on how participatory culture and innovative teaching initiatives can facilitate digital integration in schools. This dynamic, reflexive policy model proposed can be adapted to emerging social changes and used by policymakers, management staff and teachers in primary and secondary education. |
