Digital competence, higher education and teacher training: a meta-analysis study on the Web of Science

The present research aims to analyze the scientific production with the greatest impact on digital competence of future teachers on the Web of Science (WoS). To this end, a meta-analysis was carried out using four combined searches delimited by the use of four keywords extracted from ERIC Thesaurus: digital competence, teacher training, digital skills and higher education. Nine study variables have been considered: year of publication, origin of the files, authors with the highest scientific production, institutions, countries, document typology, areas, language of publication and most cited references. In total, we analyzed 154 references indexed in the database. We conclude with the extraction of a powerful line of research that has claimed an exponential relevance today, highlighting the existence of greater scientific production on digital competence in Spain
