Evaluating appreciation of measures attending to pupil diversity (EMAD) is a scale for evaluating the understanding of measures describing pupils' cultural and diversity needs among the staff responsible for such measures in Spanish primary schools. Its 9 Likert-scale items correspond to the various types of action in this area that are currently being promoted in Spain. The principal objective of this study was to assess the scale's factor structure and internal consistency, to which end the scale was completed by the heads of the Departments of Orientation of 140 Spanish primary schools. Corrected item-total correlations and Cronbach alpha (.91) indicated adequate scale homogeneity. Principal components analysis followed by varimax rotation indicated two factors jointly accounting for 71.4% of total variance, one associated with actions involving modification of syllabuses, and the other with actions not requiring such changes. Cronbach alphas were .89 and .79 for the two factors.
En el artículo se estudia el grado de utilización que realiza el profesorado de los recursos tecnológicos y se analiza su funcionalidad pedagógica en la enseñanza superior de las carreras de educación en España y Portugal. El diseño de investigación se aborda desde el estudio de caso, analizando la situación objeto de estudio en ambos países. La investigación desarrollada es de corte transversal y combina el estudio extensivo con el intensivo. Se ha recurrido al cuestionario para la toma de datos del alumnado y a la realización de grupos de discusión con el profesorado. Entre las conclusiones se constata que el profesorado de las carreras de educación de España y Portugal continua utilizando en mayor medida los recursos tecnológicos tradicionales que los nuevos avances digitales. Las funciones educativas de aplicación más habitual son las de ejemplificar los modelos de enseñanza-aprendizaje, motivar, transmitir información y estructurar contenidos.
