“…En relación al segundo objetivo, se encontró que un porcentaje considerable de docentes presentaron niveles altos y muy altos de escepticismo, fatiga y ansiedad, lo cual indica la presencia de una actitud de desconfianza o duda sobre la utilidad y efectividad de la tecnología en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje, cansancio físico o emocional por una sobrecarga de trabajo relacionado con el uso de la tecnología, y una preocupación o inquietud por el uso presente o futuro de las TIC, respectivamente (Nang et al, 2022;Rey-Merchán & López-Arquillos, 2022). En función de la ineficacia, la mayoría de docentes presentó niveles bajos, lo que sugiere que gran parte de la población evaluada se siente competente y capaz de usar herramientas digitales.…”

Sin dudas, la tecnología aporta beneficios a la vida diaria, pero también ciertas desventajas como el estrés producido por el uso de las TIC, denominado tecnoestrés; su impacto en el bienestar psicológico de los docentes puede estar mediado por las estrategias de afrontamiento. El presente estudio determinó la relación entre las estrategias de afrontamiento y el tecnoestrés en docentes de la parroquia rural El Retiro del cantón Machala, en Ecuador. Cuantitativa, no experimental, transversal con alcance descriptivo, comparativo y correlacional. Participantes: 33 docentes de las dos unidades educativas de la parroquia rural El Retiro. Instrumentos: Se aplicó la Escala Multidimensional de Evaluación de los Estilos de Afrontamiento (BRIEF-COPE/28) y el Cuestionario RED TIC. Los docentes emplean estrategias centradas en el problema y en la emoción para lidiar con el estrés, preferentemente el afrontamiento activo. Se comprobó una alta prevalencia de los síntomas del tecnoestrés. Existen correlaciones positivas moderadas entre diferentes estrategias de afrontamiento con las manifestaciones del tecnoestrés. Distintas combinaciones de estrategias de afrontamiento exhiben diferentes resultados de bienestar. Los resultados tienen implicaciones para el desarrollo de programas que promuevan estrategias de afrontamiento adaptativas e intervenciones que aborden directamente el estrés de los docentes.

This study examines the effect of technostress on teachers’ quality of work life and job performance. A moderated mediation model is proposed and tested based on the transactional model of stress and coping. This study proposes organizational flexibility as the boundary condition—a first-level moderator—and quality of work life as the explanatory variable. A sample of 199 university teachers who worked from home or used the hybrid teaching mode was selected. Data were collected through closed-ended questionnaires. Structural equation modeling (SEM) and the Hayes PROCESS Macro (extension in SPSS) were used for hypothesis testing. The results found that the three dimensions of technostress (Techno complexity, Techno invasion, and Techno overload) negatively and significantly affect teachers’ quality of work life. However, there are significant positive direct effects of these three dimensions of technostress on employee performance and significant negative indirect effects on performance through quality of work life. Organizational flexibility acts as a significant moderator, where a low value of organizational flexibility enhances the negative relationship between technostress and quality of work life. In contrast, high values of organizational flexibility convert the significant negative relationship into an insignificant impact. The university management must take measures to overcome technostress among teachers by showing flexibility.

Education is a cornerstone of societal progress, and the adoption and implementation of international educational standards play a pivotal role in shaping the quality and effectiveness of primary education systems worldwide. This research presents a comprehensive case study that scrutinizes adopting and implementing international educational standards within primary schools in the Dir Lower district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The study seeks to unravel the intricate dynamics that influence how global educational standards are integrated into the local educational landscape. Methodological concerns: this study utilized quantitative research methodology to incorporate the opinion of primary school teacher regarding international educational standards and their availability in the study locale. In addition, the study utilized the values of a simple random sampling technique and size 326 potential respondents through the Sekaran sample table out of 3243. Furthermore, the study collected primary data through a close-ended questionnaire and then analyzed with uni-variate, e.g., frequency and percentage, and bi-variate T-Test in order to measure the relationship between independent and dependent variables. The findings of this study reveal several significant outcomes. First, it is evident that there has been a notable effort to align the curriculum and teaching methodologies with international educational standards. However, the level of implementation varies across schools and regions within Dir Lower, suggesting disparities in the quality of education provided. Second, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, lack of teacher training, and socio-economic disparities have emerged as barriers to the effective implementation of these standards. In light of these findings, this research offers several recommendations. Firstly, there is a need for increased investment in infrastructure and teacher training programs to bridge the existing gaps in the education system. Additionally, a more standardized approach to curriculum development and teaching methodologies should be adopted to ensure uniformity across schools in Dir Lower. Furthermore, community involvement and awareness campaigns should be initiated to garner support and participation from parents and local communities.
