AVELLO MARTINEZ, Raidell; LOPEZ FERNANDEZ, Raúl  and  VAZQUEZ CEDENO, Silvia. ICT competitions of teachers from cuban hotel management and tourism schools. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2016, vol.8, n.1, pp. 63-69. ISSN 2218-3620.

Among the main concerns of educational institutions, countries and regions is the improvement and continuous updating of teachers in ICT. The aim of this study is to diagnose the training needs of teachers in relation to ICT, and thus have specific elements to form the training strategy of teachers in Cuban hotel management and tourism schools for the coming years. To achieve this goal a questionnaire was applied to 68 teachers from schools of hotel management and tourism in Cienfuegos and Havana. Within the results it is to highlight that there is little use of web 2.0 tools and lack of preparation in the dimension of research and professional development.

Keywords : ICT; ICT competences; training needs; ICT teacher training; digital literacy; educational technology.
