Resumen
Since there is a lack of information on the level of digital competence of secondary school teachers in the Mayan region of Mexico, a preliminary study was conducted to identify the level of digital competence and whether there are differences in the level of digital competence of teachers with socioeconomic variables. The DigCompEdu Check-In instrument was administered to 462 teachers; global and area competency levels were obtained, as well as analysis of means and standard deviations and comparisons using the t-test for independent samples; the Kruskal-Wallis test was also used to find differences. Among the results it was found that 45.2% of teachers are at intermediate levels of digital competence, also that there are differences in the level of digital competence between teachers in urban and rural areas; in addition, it was found that variables such as level of studies, number of social networks and class hours are related to the level of digital competence. With the information obtained, some actions can be defined to be carried out in the next stages of the research, such as working with more teachers and involving their students. The main contribution of this research is to have information on the digital competencies of teachers in the Mayan area of Mexico.
