abstract = {The protection of personal data and privacy are important issues closely related to use of social
media, information and communication technologies, and the Internet in the area of education.
The treatment of academic information and use of tools and programs for instruction,
communication, and learning have revealed the handling of a significant volume of personal
data from different sources. It is essential to protect this information from possible privacy
violations. This descriptive study, which is of transversal nonexperimental design, focuses on
how 384 pre-service teachers’ enrolled in educational technology courses in their education
programs view the protection of personal data. The goals are to describe and analyze how these
teachers perceive the risks associated with protection of data on the Internet and what they
know about protection of data in primary education. We administered a questionnaire within
the framework of an educational activity that focused on digital competence in data protection
in education. The results show a high perception of risk in topics such as accepting cookies when
surfing the Internet or transferring banking information. The knowledge the students claim to
have shown a lack of information on the protection of minors’ data in issues related to the
development and schooling of primary school students, as well as their health, background, and
family environment. Curricular treatment of these areas that includes content, practices on
regulations, and adopts a situated, critical, and responsible approach in pre-service teacher
education is recommended.},
