Abstract: This paper presents the results of a survey on the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in different teaching and research activities among academic staff of the Complutense University of Madrid (Spain). A total of 140 respondents to an online questionnaire showed large differences among the technologies used and the extended presence of the communication tools. Results also revealed the instrumental orientation of the training already received, and the identified training needs, in order to integrate these resources in their teaching and to actively participate in building the European Higher Education Area. Data are indicative of certain tendencies emerging fairly homogeneously, especially on the need of suitable training for relevant educational uses of ICT in their teaching, to support learning and methodological integration of technology resources.
