This synthesis comes from a sample of 25 relevant articles and highlights three major thematic areas that have distinguished the theme of digital technologies in education and training: the use of digital resources within teaching and learning practices, the appropriate use of digital technologies, even outside the educational and educational contexts, and the training of the teaching staff to digital technologies and especially their use for educational and pedagogical purposes. This synthesis represents a privileged opportunity to highlight what the journal has contributed to spread in this field from a scientific point of view. The article, through a current look at the developments of research on technologies in education, thus allows to outline past and recent orientations, as well as current problems and issues that characterize this important and constantly evolving field.</p> ER -
