Digital Teaching Competencies Evaluation of Teachers in Saudi Arabia: A Systematic Review

Given the pivotal role of teachers in facilitating learning, it is necessary that they be equipped with digital competencies to be able to prepare the new generations to work and live in the digital age efficiently. There is a need to assess Digital Teaching Competencies and investigate the training needed in this area. The purpose of this review was to identify the Digital Teaching Competencies of Saudi teachers. Twelve reviewed studies show significant heterogeneity in the theoretical frameworks and tools used. Teachers indicate that they have basic digital skills. However, there has been a lack of a theoretical framework guiding the development of digital competencies in Saudi Arabia which could be a concern in the educational system.
