Subclaims¶

q2 i? 73.9% of teachers reported applying ICT efficiently, and a chi-square independence test found no dependence between educational level and ICT-use competence (Chi-square = 2.67, p = .61). → García-López 2017

q2 · i? · design · r2

Chi-square independence test on the contingency table crossing educational level (bachelor's, master's, PhD) with ICT-use competence level for 134 teachers; the accompanying text reports "73.9% of the teachers dominate this competence efficiently" and only 2.2% require assistance.

"For the contingency Table 2 the independence test was also made between the variables level of education and the competence of use of technology, obtaining a Chi-square of 2.67 with a value of p = .61, which is not significant, concluding with this that there is no dependence between the two variables."

• Teachers' educational level was statistically associated with their responses on three of 37 OER-competency survey items, though the definition-of-elements association is weak and non-linear — related
• Doctoral-level teachers show the highest advanced-level percentage in each of the four OER competency modules — related
