The intersection of education, sustainable development, and digital technologies presents significant challenges. This study investigated the concept of 'digital sustainability' (digitainability) from the perspective of Latvian educational professionals, highlighting a perceived narrow and superficial understanding of digital technologies' role in promoting sustainable development.
Why it matters
The responsible integration of digital technologies into educational frameworks is critical for fostering sustainable development. Understanding how educational professionals perceive and implement 'digital sustainability' can inform strategies to ensure that technological advancements contribute positively to societal and environmental goals, rather than creating new challenges.
Key insights
- Digital technologies are rapidly developing, creating challenges for both education and sustainable development.
- Education is considered critical for achieving sustainable development and for the responsible use of digital technologies.
- The role of digital technologies in advancing sustainable development has often been approached superficially.
- The research explored Latvian educational professionals' perceptions of 'digital sustainability' or 'digitainability'.
