Abstract

With the use of technology in education, the integration of digital literacy and technological skills with pedagogy has become one of the important competencies that teachers need to master. Thus, the study investigated the digital literacy, technological and pedagogical competencies of primary school teachers in Kazakhstan on a relational basis. The study was conducted with 223 primary school teachers working in various schools in Almaty. 'Digital Literacy Scale', 'Pedagogical Competence Scale' and 'Technological Competence Scale' were used to collect the data. T and F tests were used to compare school teachers' digital literacy, pedagogical and technological competencies based on gender and professional seniority. 'Multiple Regression Technique' was used to analyze the relationships between the variables of school teachers' digital literacy, pedagogical and technological competencies. The findings revealed that the pedagogical competencies of primary school teachers were high, while their digital literacy and technological competencies were at a moderate level. Pedagogical and technological efficacy and digital literacy of primary school teachers differed significantly based on gender and professional seniority. Male primary school teachers had high levels of technological competence and digital literacy, whereas female primary school teachers had high levels of pedagogical competence. Multiple regression analysis indicated that teachers' digital literacy significantly predicted their pedagogical and technological competencies.
