INTRODUCTION
This study sought to determine the influence
that numerous variables had on the development of technology skills in education majors. According to some studies, college students display high levels of use of and comfort with computers and other digital tools (Smith, Salaway, & Caruso, 2009). Several scholars
have tried to determine which variables most affect an individual’s digital skills, but their findings have been inconclusive. Specifically, education majors are a substantial focus for analysis, because of the importance that has been placed on their digital competency (Banister & Vannatta, 2006). It has also been proposed that the digital skills of education majors are not sufficient for today’s world.
