Description
Summary:Digital literacy has been a major theme in both public and higher education over the past 15 years. The information age demands new digital skills from citizens, which educational institutions need to develop. Keeping up with the challenges is becoming increasingly difficult and the effectiveness of digital and information activities often falls under of expectations. Research has shown that digital competences alone do not guarantee effective digital activity and that, in addition to competences, individuals may need to believe in the effectiveness of their own digital activity, to believe in their own skills and competences. This paper presents the results of a study conducted in 2023 to explore the possible connections between digital self-efficacy and digital competence.
