The objectives of this research were 1) to analyze the components of digital competence for teachers, and 2) to develop digital competence questionnaires. This study employed an exploratory sequential mixed-methods research design. The study was divided into two phases. Phase 1 analyzed the components of digital competence for teachers by collecting data from 10 educational technology expert via interviews. The data were analyzed by content analysis. Phase 2 comprised a quantitative study, collecting data from 55 student teachers at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand. The research instrument was the digital competence questionnaire. The data were analyzed using the Cronbach alpha coefficient and confirmatory factor analysis.
Research results are as follows: 1. Digital competence consists of 5 factors. These are basic knowledge of digital media and technology, digital media and technology skills, choosing digital media and technology, creating digital media and technology, and media ethics. 2. In analyzing the digital competence questionnaires: 2.1 The Cronbach alpha coefficient was .944, and 2.2 The structural model of digital competence fit well with the empirical data, at a significance level of .05 (X2(3, N=55) =1.843, p > .05).
