Digital literacy is one of the most important skills of the 21st century that is necessary for individuals to access the right information easily, quickly and effectively. The aim of this study is to reveal the views of preschool teachers about digital literacy to children. Case study design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. The research was carried out with the data collected through semi-structured interview form with 20 teachers who were reached by snowball sampling method in a province in eastern Anatolia. Content analysis method was used in data analysis. As a result, preschool teachers stated that digital literacy is beneficial, contributes to the development of the child, and digital literacy education should be given. There were also teachers who stated that digital materials should not be in preschool education. It was stated that social environment should be created for children to use safe digital devices, content control should be increased, children should play games and children should read books. As a suggestion, digital literacy education can be suggested to children, teachers and families in order to obtain information more reliably, easily and quickly in the digital age.

This article presents the main findings of a mixed-method study that explored ECEC teachers’ views on the recently enacted STPD for Teacher Professional Development (STPD) in Chile. Relying on a mixed-method design, we gathered data from individual and group interviews and an online survey conducted with 268 ECEC teachers. Drawn from both a priori and emergent categories, our findings reveal that participants held four paradoxical views on the new System: salary justice versus monetizing of the profession; professional teaching recognition versus counter-pedagogical identity, rigorous evaluation versus inappropiate evaluation instruments, and palpable individual career advancement versus doubtful field development. These paradoxes show that ECEC teachers have a positive global view of the new STPD, despite their perception of its individualistic and counter-ECEC pedagogical nature, suggesting a claim for their right to professional development and decent working conditions, as well as a criticism of the STPD’s neoliberal foundation.
