Cover Story: A large body of scientific literature has addressed trainee teachers’ study and perceptions of as well as training and competence in ICTs. All these studies note the need for change within teaching qualifications so that they are suited to today’s information and communication society (ICS). Technology must be integrated appropriately in the educational context by following teaching and learning models that propose the correct inclusion of technology, like the TPACK framework. We believe that it is essential to understand the use of ICTs and LKTs in the university faculties and schools where teachers are trained, as well as to assess their technological competence in order to analyze their adaptation to changes in the ICS of the twenty-first century.
