In Ecuador, the recognition of the right to digital education has been limited and fraught with challenges. These difficulties have arisen not only due to the absence of its regulation but also because of the lack of infrastructure and necessary resources for effective interaction between educators and students. The right to digital education should not be viewed solely as a right but as a tool capable of contributing to the improvement of teaching methodologies to enhance the quality of education in the country's educational institutions and to ensure the integration of students into the knowledge and information society. The Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador involves the educational administration in the implementation of this right, requiring it to include the competence to manage the constant evolution and reduce the digital gap between technology and teaching methodology. Furthermore, the Ecuadorian legal framework also mandates the assurance of teacher training to enhance the necessary skills and qualifications for successfully addressing digital learning processes. Additionally, it links the training of teachers and students in the use and safety of digital media to the guarantee of fundamental rights on the Internet. This research work analyzes the concept of digital education, the right to it, its background, and the current regulatory framework in Ecuador, particularly in educational institutions in the canton of Babahoyo.
