Although several DC tools have been designed, adjustments to digital education and pedagogical or professional components are still scarce. Therefore, this study aims at developing a new instrument for assessing teachers\u2019 DC regarding their pedagogical and professional activities in the context of digital school and digital education. The study also examines the teachers\u2019 total DC scores and explores the differences between teacher profiles on a sample of 845 teachers in primary and secondary education in Greece. The final instrument comprises 20 items allocated in six components: 1) Teaching preparation; 2) Teaching delivery &amp; students\u2019 support; 3) Teaching evaluation &amp; revision; 4) Professional development; 5) School\u2019s development; and 6) Innovating education. The PLS-SEM analysis indicated the validity and reliability of the model in respect to its factorial structure, internal consistency, convergence validity, and model fitness. The results revealed DC inefficiency among teachers in Greece. Primary school teachers reported significantly lower scores in Professional development and Teaching delivery &amp; students support. Female teachers reported significantly lower scores in Innovating education and School&#8217;s development, but they reported higher scores in Professional development. The contribution and practical implications are discussed in the paper.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tzafilkou, K., Perifanou, M. &amp; Economides, A. A. (2023).
