“…According to Plaza de la Hoz [43], ICT can empower students, provided they permit unlimited access to information and the creation of learning communities. In addition, their positive effects on student motivation have been recognized [44,45] together with their contribution to saving time [46]. This brings about an opportunity to develop their awareness of the impact these resources can have on the environment.…”

The work of teaching is fundamental for achieving Agenda 2030, which defends the importance of improving quality in education (Sustainable Development Goal SDG 4), gender equality (SDG 5) and responsible consumption (SDG 12). Thus, the aim of the present study was to analyse teachers’ self-perceived digital competence as regards their eco-responsible use of technology. A total of 259 teachers in Preschool, Primary and Secondary Education in the Valencian Community (Spain) completed the 14-item questionnaire designed and validated by Barragán et al. (2020). Added to this were two open questions. The data collected then underwent quantitative (descriptive and comparative) and qualitative (conventional and summative content) analysis. Notable among the results were the low levels of knowledge and training regarding the environmental impact of technologies and the use of preventive measures. In addition, differences were found as regards gender, with males having a more positive self-perception, especially those teaching in Secondary Education. The information about training they provided in their narratives supported the quantitative findings. Their voices also led to the uncovering of proposals on how to teach eco-responsible practices and attitudes regarding the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Finally, teacher training was identified as the main problem but also the main solution. All efforts should therefore be directed towards training teachers in the eco-responsible use of ICT following a holistic approach to sustainability.

“…According to recent research studies, students have negative perceptions of their orientation and require a training system in order to have broad and flexible training opportunities. Further, the process of personal discovery should take place from early ages in order to strengthen the decision-making capacity throughout the academic and professional journey [60][61][62][63][64][65].…”

A Confirmatory Evaluation of an Educational Orientation Tool for Pre-University Students

This study incorporates the design and validation of a questionnaire for the evaluation of Careers Advisory Services and the systematic processes that influence it (family, peer groups, socioeconomic status, etc.). In addition, it examines its psychometric properties within a multicultural population of students attending educational centres in the south of Spain. It seeks to create a valid instrument that is reliable as a measurement tool and useful for evaluating decision making situations relevant to the future working context. A perspective of working life is given through consideration of the degree choices made by those involved in the decision-making process. The metrics used showed high content and construct validity. Structural equation modelling (SEM) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were employed. Indicators described by Wald and Lagrange were used to examine and modify the model in order to obtain a model that best fits relevant theory and goodness of fit criteria. Educ. Sci. 2019, 9, 285 2 of 13 problem [5][6][7][8]. This issue is particularly pertinent for students in the final stage of their education who lack motivation due to not being adequately informed [9]. This is the focus of the present study. Despite challenges to the decision making processes of adolescents, parents respect them, assuming a subsidiary role of support and listening, that influences upon security and self-efficacy [10].Thus, during the stage of secondary education that coincides with academic choice, vocational maturity is still found in a state of crescendo. From this arises the urgent need to work with both families and educational centres in a way that encourages students to take decisions in order to overcome feelings of uncertainty [11].Multiple factors have an influence on decision making. These include the influence of the peer group, the economic situation and individual characteristics, amongst others [12][13][14]. This being said, it has been noted that, amongst these factors, the parental context is one of the most significant variables [15][16][17][18].At the time of making a decision, children feel that they are supported when they see parents who are involved and hold positive expectations [19,20]. One of the central variables is the educational level of parents. If the parents themselves possess university qualifications, it is more likely that their children will also decide to attend university [10].Another of the determining factors in the choice of one's future career is the family's socioeconomic level [21]. This is significant given that it has as much of an effect on the resources available to invest in education, as on the urgency for the child to enter the workplace in order to contribute with an income [22].Thus, achieving professional recognition and prestige, or obtaining a well-paid job, are extrinsic motives [23] in the decision to study for a specific academic career.The vocational and professional orientation and guidance received from careers services, is another one of the key point...

“…Moreover, Castellano and Pantoja (2017) examine a group of primary students from Andalucía, Spain, and find positive results in self-esteem and reading efficiency. Huertas and Pantoja (2016) also analyzes the influence of ICT on academic performance and student motivation. They perform a quasi-experimental method based on a sample of 194 secondary students from Málaga, Spain.…”

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are now deeply embedded in educational systems across both developed and developing countries. However, research on the impact of ICT on educational outcomes is still inconclusive. This paper examines whether computers with Internet access at student´s home has a payoff in terms of mathematics, reading and science scores. Moreover, it assesses the effects of ICT in households on school failure. To do so, the research employs a matching procedure using the PISA database available for Argentina. Results show that educational performance increases between 2.5% and 3.5% among the group of students with a home computer connected to the Internet, depending on the skill considered and the matching method employed. Furthermore, ICT access at home reduces school failure by between 8% and 18%. These findings would support public policies recently implemented in the region aimed at the universalization of ICT. R E S U M E N Las nuevas Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC) están actualmente arraigadas en los sistemas educativos de los países desarrollados y en desarrollo. Sin embargo, la investigación académica sobre el impacto de las TIC en el rendimiento educativo todavía no es concluyente. Por ello, este artículo examina si disponer de ordenador con acceso a Internet en los hogares de los estudiantes tiene una recompensa en las puntuaciones obtenidas en matemáticas, lectura y ciencia. Además, analiza el efecto de disponer de TIC en el hogar sobre el fracaso escolar. A tal fin, la investigación emplea un procedimiento de emparejamiento utilizando la base de datos PISA disponible para Argentina. Los resultados muestran que, entre el grupo de estudiantes con un ordenador doméstico con conexión a Internet, el rendimiento educativo aumenta entre el 2,5% por ciento y el 3,5%, dependiendo de la competencia considerada y del método de emparejamiento empleado. Además, el acceso a TIC en el hogar reduce el fracaso escolar entre el 8% y el 18%. Estos hallazgos podrían validar aquellas políticas públicas recientemente implementadas en la región con el objetivo de la universalización de las TIC.
