Topic 6 Ways to measure the learner’s level of competencies in using digital technologies
DEFINITION OF DIGITAL COMPETENCE
Digital competence is a combination of knowledge, skills and attitudes with
regards to the use of technology to perform tasks, solve problems, communicate,
manage information, collaborate, as well as to create and share content effectively, appropriately, securely, critically, creatively, independently and ethically
The OECD Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAACC) provides internationally comparable measures of three sets of skills: literacy, numeracy, and problem solving in technology rich environments (OECD, 2013).
The Digital Competence Wheel is theoretically based on a major EU research project, DIGCOMP, deriving from the European Parliament’s inclusion of digital competence, as one of the eight core competences for lifelong learning.
The purpose of the Digital Competence Wheel is to provide an overview of which digital competences exist and should be improved, as well as concrete inspiration for how to improve the most relevant digital competences
