Digital pedagogical skills are essential for teachers dedicated to the ethical and effective use of digital resourcesin blended learning, artificial learning, teaching, communication, collaboration, evaluation, and problem-solving in the era of digitalization. A variety of competency frameworks have been developed for teachers and learners by incorporating several components to accomplish the academic demand for learning and professional development. However, many of them do not address a wide range of resources, tools, and skills. The main objective of this research was to develop an inter-level digital competency framework for mathematics teachers from the school to the university level. DEPSWALIC Digital Competency Framework for Teachers has developed based on the literature and the necessary digital skills of teachers to complete their all activities digitally. The framework suggests that the teachers should have twenty-seven sub-skills under six keys skills (1) writing and presentation tools, (2) internet surfing and communication tools, (3) course management and evaluation tools, (4) learning and sharing tools, (5) related applications and (6) audio and visual documents development tools. Also, framework suggested that the teachers should be sensitive and careful on policy and ethical values in the use of such resources in professional activities. Additionally, skills of LMS, audio and video development tools, subject related online resources, software, and mobile applications skills for making digital games, creation of personal blocks, digital library, and result analysis related skills and resources are new attractions of this framework.
