La competencia mediática en el profesorado universitario. Validación de un instrumento de evaluación

Abstract

Media literacy of university teachers is a challenge of the current society, to achieve the critical education of the citizens. We present the process of design and validation of a questionnaire to know their level of media literacy. The analysis of validity and reliability of the instrument was carried out in two different stages to guarantee the consistency of the instrument: validation by Delphi method and by psychometric analysis from an international pilot simple of 260 university teachers. The result is an eight-dimensional questionnaire. The validation data and analysis by dimensions show a consistent tool for the collection of information in a changing knowledge field that needs instruments, making a valuable contribution for media literacy research.
