Abstract

The objective of this research is to find the relationship between technology in households and its impact on access to primary and secondary education levels in Ecuador during the period 2022-2023. Independent variables such as internet access, availability of technological devices, socioeconomic level and geographic location (rural or urban) and the dependent variable, access to education, are analyzed. The study was conducted by analyzing a database obtained from the National Institute of Statistics and Census (INEC), specifically the National Survey of Employment, Unemployment and Underemployment (ENEMDU) 2022-2023, which explained the use of technologies in Ecuador. The research uses a quantitative approach, employing a binomial Logit model and a Clustering technique for data processing. The analysis of the results highlights that having a computer, internet access and the area where you live, rural or urban, is statistically significant for access to primary and secondary education, also obtained a ROC test that showed that the model has high performance of classification, and obtained a Hosmer-Lemeshow of 0.10, accepting the Ho, determining that there is homogeneity in the model. The conclusions suggest that it is essential to improve the technological infrastructure in rural areas and provide training in digital skills to reduce the digital divide and ensure equitable access to education throughout the country.
