Digital knowledge in higher education teachers. Study in a Mexican school

An empirical research is presented that assesses digital knowledge in higher education teachers, the data was collected in a Mexican institution located in the northwest of the country. The sample is simple random probabilistic composed of 224 teachers classified according to the variables Age, Academic Degree and Gender, since the hypothetical was worked on that technological knowledge is related to these factors. In order to find a statistical relationship in the grouping of data, an exploratory factorial was performed by Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) and Bartlett's sphericity test with the principal component extraction method and varimax rotation. Only factors with an eigenvalue greater than 1 and a factorial weight per item greater than 0.40 were accepted. Subsequently, non-parametric statistical tests were performed to identify relationships from the crossover variables. The findings show that the age of the teachers is a differentiating factor for the appropriation of digital knowledge.
