14、 Digital Skills playbook for educators.In this playbook,we are digging into the challenge of improving the digital skills of students no matter what age or stage of learning they might be at.Whether young children,vocational students,or older learners,we are looking at how we can best support them.I

15、n this context,we focus principally on basic digital skills,rather than advanced digital ICT professional skills.In this playbook,we look at several key areas.First,we review the context of digital skills in the European Union(EU),what they are for,and what some of the challenges are.We then move on

16、 to understanding digital skills in more depth,leaning on the European DigComp Framework as a guide,as well as looking at important issues like ethics and sustainability.We then go on to describe practices for improving digital skills for various ages and skill levels.The final section of this playb

17、ook looks at the supporting environment for digital skills,including professional development and the role of leaders.This playbook has been produced by a team of deeply experienced education experts at multiple levels of education from across the EU,who make up the Digital Skills squad in the conte

18、xt of the European Digital Education Hub.All contributors are volunteers,and we are deeply grateful for their efforts and contributions.1.Introduction8The European Union aims for 80%of its population to have basic digital skills by 2030,as compared to only 54%of the population having such skills in

19、2021 as reported by Digital Economy and Society Index.The EU recognises that insufficient digital skills act as a barrier to participation in digital society and the digital economy.People who do not have basic digital skills are less likely to be able to critically use digital tools such as social

20、media and the internet and will also struggle to find a job compared to those with better skills.At a macro level,this also has a negative impact on society,as companies are not able to grow and compete European Digital Education Hub as they are unable to find workers with the skills they need to ef

21、fectively use digital tools in the workplace.Ensuring that we collectively address this issue is thus critical,and educators working in education and training organisations are the practical solution to this issue.However,there are several challenges to face in order to do this,namely,how to include

22、 marginalised groups(the elderly,socially disadvantaged,rural,refugees,etc.),ensuring sufficient infrastructure is available in education and training institutions,the appropriate level of educator skills and having the right digital skills curriculum available.For marginalised groups,it can be chal

23、lenging to even reach them as they are diverse and often not reachable at scale as they are unlikely to already be online.Many education and training institutions also still struggle with infrastructure across the EU,for instance with insufficient bandwidth,old and inappropriate devices.Educator ski

24、lls are also a barrier,as most educators in the EU still report a need for further digital skills training themselves,and thus struggle to support their students effectively.And finally,although many efforts have been made,there is not a consistent,well-documented approach to curriculum for digital

25、skills for all ages and stages of education.This playbook thus aims to contribute particularly to supporting educators in thinking about curriculum approaches to digital skills.In the next section,we review the European Digital Competence Framework which defines what digital skills really mean,and h

26、ow ethical and sustainability issues need also to be taken into account in the context of digital skills.2.Context9SECTION BUnderstanding Digital Skills10In this section we look at the definition of digital skills,in particular the European DigComp Framework,ethical issues in digital skills and sust

27、ainability.3.1.European DigComp FrameworkThe European DigComp Framework,also known as the Digital Competence Framework for Citizens,is a tool developed by the Joint Research Centre(JRC)of the European Commission to provide a common understanding of what digital competence represents,across the EU an

28、d beyond.The framework has provided a solid basis for framing digital skills policy,curricula development and assessment of digital skills,both in education and in the labor market.The framework is regularly updated to keep pace with the rapidly changing digital landscape.The latest update,DigComp 2

29、.2,provides more than 250 new examples of knowledge and skills to help European citizens with self-evaluation,identifying training offers and job search.The update aims to engage citizens confidently and safely with digital technologies,taking account of emerging technologies,such as Artificial Inte

30、lligence(AI),the Internet of Things(IoT),datafication or new phenomena derived from the pandemic crisis,which have led to the need for new and increased requirements in digital competence for citizens and workers.Competences in general are seen as a combination of knowledge,skills and attitudes;they

31、 are therefore composed of concepts and facts(i.e.,knowledge),descriptions of skills(e.g.,the ability to carry out processes)and attitudes(e.g.,a disposition,a mindset to act)(see figure below).Key competences are developed throughout life.13.Understanding Digital Skills1 DigComp 2.2,p.3.11The work

32、on operationalising digital competence following the 2006 Council Recommendation,started in 2010.In 2013,the first DigComp reference framework came out defining digital competence as a combination of 21 competences grouped in five main areas.Since 2016,the five areas are Information and data literac

33、y;Communication and collaboration;Digital content creation;Safety;and Problem solving(see figure below).2Image source:DigComp 2.2,p.32 DigComp 2.2,p.4.12DigComp 2.2 is a valuable tool for educators as it helps assess students digital competences and design a curriculum that addresses the needs of le

34、arners in a rapidly changing digital landscape.The framework can also be used to identify training needs for educators themselves,to ensure that they are equipped with the necessary digital skills to support their students learning.The DigComp conceptual reference model;Image source:DigComp 2.2,p.4.

35、133.2.Ethical Issues in Digital Skills a European Perspective In this section,we discuss the key areas of ethics to consider in digital skills,some of the specific issues arising from misuse of digital skills,and examples of how ethical issues connect into the competence framework.There are three ke

36、y areas of ethics to consider in the field of digital skills:Conceptualising Digital Ethics:Digital ethics,within the European framework,is about ensuring that technology serves humanity while respecting fundamental rights and values.Ethical Challenges in Digital Literacy:Digital literacy goes beyon

37、d technical proficiency.It encompasses understanding the ethical implications of our digital actions,such as respecting privacy,ensuring data protection,and combating the spread of fake news.Navigating Ethical Dilemmas in Digital Communication and Content Creation:The digital realm offers unpreceden

38、ted opportunities for communication and content creation.However,it also presents challenges like cyberbullying,misinformation,and intellectual property violations.Next,we define ethical issues arising from the misuse of digital skills in an educational context.Plagiarism and Academic Dishonesty:One

39、 of the most prevalent ethical issues in digital education is plagiarism.With an abundance of information available online,students may be tempted to copy and paste text from internet sources directly into their work without proper citation.This constitutes academic dishonesty and a violation of int

40、ellectual property rights.Tools like Turnitin are being used to check for plagiarism in student papers,but the responsibility ultimately lies with the individual to use their digital skills ethically.Cyberbullying:Digital communication tools have unfortunately opened up new avenues for bullying.Cybe

41、rbullying can take place via social media,chat rooms,or email,and it can be relentless because it doesnt stop at the school gate.This form of bullying can have severe psychological impacts,and its a clear misuse of digital skills.Schools need to have clear policies in place to deal with such inciden

42、ts and provide support to victims.Privacy Violations:Theres a vast amount of personal data that students may share online,either knowingly or unknowingly.Misuse of digital skills can lead to privacy violations,such as unauthorized access to personal emails,data theft,or sharing private information w

43、ithout consent.For example,students might share a screenshot of a private conversation without the other partys consent,violating their privacy.14Cheating in Online Assessments:The rise of online education has brought new challenges in maintaining academic integrity during assessments.Some students

44、misuse their digital skills to cheat on tests or exams.This can be done by browsing the internet for answers,using digital tools to collaborate with others during an individual test,or even hiring someone else to complete the assessment.Spreading Misinformation:Digital skills include the ability to

45、create and share content online,but this can become problematic when students use these skills to spread misinformation or false news.This could be as simple as sharing a news article without checking its credibility or as significant as creating false information to cause harm or for personal gain.

46、These examples underline the importance of integrating digital ethics education alongside the teaching of digital skills,emphasising not just how to use these skills,but also when and why certain uses are inappropriate or unethical.Examples Based on the Competence FrameworkInformation and Data Liter

47、acyOverview:Information and Data Literacy refers to the ability to identify,locate,retrieve,store,organise,and analyse digital information,judging its relevance and purpose.Ethical Challenges:Data Privacy:Ensuring that personal and sensitive data are handled with respect and not misused or accessed

48、without proper authorisation.Misinformation:The responsibility of discerning credible sources from unreliable ones,and the ethical implications of sharing or acting upon misinformation.Intellectual Property:Recognising and respecting copyrights,patents,and trademarks in the digital realm.Communicati

49、on and CollaborationOverview:This competence involves sharing information digitally,using a range of digital tools,understanding the norms and conventions of online interactions,and being aware of the impact of digital technologies on societal structures.15Ethical Challenges:Cyberbullying:The misuse

50、 of digital platforms to harass,threaten,or harm others.Digital Footprint:Being aware of the lasting nature of online communications and the challenges of erasing ones digital history.Online Etiquette:Understanding and adhering to the unspoken rules of online interactions and respecting diverse view

51、points.Digital Content CreationOverview:Digital Content Creation encompasses creating and editing digital content,programming,and understanding how digital technology functions.Ethical Challenges:Plagiarism:The unauthorised use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author withou

52、t authorisation and the representation of that authors work as ones own.Authenticity:Ensuring that digital content,especially images and videos,are not manipulated to deceive or mislead audiences.Accessibility:Ensuring that digital content is accessible to all,including those with disabilities.Safet

53、yOverview:Digital safety revolves around protecting devices,content,personal data,and ones digital identity,understanding the risks and threats of the digital environment,and taking steps to mitigate them.Ethical Challenges:Data Protection:Ensuring that personal data is protected from breaches and u

54、nauthorised access.Digital Well-being:Recognising and mitigating the potential harms of prolonged digital exposure,such as mental health challenges or digital addiction.Consent:Ensuring that digital tools and platforms do not exploit users data without clear and informed consent.16Problem SolvingOve

55、rview:Digital problem-solving involves identifying digital needs and challenges,solving technical issues,and innovatively using digital tools to address broader life challenges.Ethical Challenges:Algorithmic Bias:Recognising and addressing biases in digital solutions,ensuring fairness and equity.Sus

56、tainability:Considering the environmental impact of digital solutions,such as e-waste or energy consumption.Inclusivity:Ensuring that digital solutions are designed for all,without inadvertently excluding certain groups.3.3.Sustainability and Digital SkillsSustainability encompasses the responsible

57、use of resources,the reduction of waste and pollution,and the adoption of practices that support long-term ecological and societal stability.It extends beyond environmental concerns to include economic viability and social equity,aiming to create a harmonious,prosperous and long-lasting coexistence

58、between people and planet.The birth of the concept is related to the Brundtland Report released in 1987 by the World Commission on Environment and Development and chaired by Norwegian Prime Minister Gro Harlem Brundtland.Although not enough attention was given to it over the years,the rising global

59、temperatures and sea levels,the increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather events,the mountains of waste and the depletion of natural resources have placed,nowadays,sustainability at the forefront of the global agendas.Governments,businesses,and communities around the world are becoming aw

60、are of the critical need for sustainability and are beginning to take consistent action.This widespread concern over climate change is reflected in the DigComp 2.2 framework as well,listing“protecting the environment”and“protecting health and well-being”as dimensions that are part of the“safety”comp

61、etence area.This approach aims to help us become aware of the impact that digital technologies have on resource consumption,waste generation and human well-being.To put this into context,try to estimate the percentage of global greenhouse gases(GHG)that you think are linked to the digital space in 2

62、023.How does this number compare to the emissions attributed to aviation?17While flying is often criticised for its emissions,accounting for approximately 2%of GHGs or 2.5%of CO2 emissions,it is crucial to recognise that emissions from our digital devices,internet usage,and its underlying infrastruc

63、ture contribute to approximately 4%of global GHGs.What is even more concerning is the projection that these emissions are set to double by 2025.Many technology companies are however taking steps to mitigate this,for example Microsoft invests heavily in(controversial)carbon offsetting and green energ

64、y for data centres,and Apple devices are increasingly built from recycled materials.Nonetheless,emerging technologies such as large-language models like ChatGPT are heavy users of data centre capacity and thus energy usage.Hence,we can recognise the pivotal role we,as educators,play:we should engage

65、 in meaningful conversations regarding the environmental and social ramifications that digital technologies bring about.Our responsibility should encompass nurturing critical thinking in relation to themes such as:time online-addiction and overuse,proliferation of misinformation,life cycle of electr

66、onics,e-waste disposal,energy consumption of data centres,of devices and online activities(such as streaming,video conferencing,cloud storage,social media and emails,etc.).Indeed,educators can also influence school decision making in choosing the most responsible and sustainable options.It is time t

67、o inspire generations to think sustainably,act responsibly,and lead us towards a brighter,regenerative future.Check the practices area for ideas on where to start.18In this section,we provide case studies around digital skills at the following levels:Primary school Secondary school Technical and voc

68、ational education(TVET)Adult educationIn each sub-section we review some of the important competence areas for the level of education and provide practice descriptions of tried and tested approaches.4.1.Primary SchoolAt primary level,increasing numbers of children already have exposure to some digit

106、mounts of digital information on an everyday basis.Developing students digital skills has become a necessity to keep pace with this fast-developing technology-determined world.Those digital skills do not just refer to using given technical tools but are more connected with a wide range of cognitive

107、soft skills connected to searching,managing and evaluating information,interacting and collaborating through digital technology,developing digital content,as well as safety and problem-solving competences.Information and Data LiteracyThis competence is referred to articulate information needs,to loc

108、ate and retrieve data,information and content.To judge the relevance of the source and its content.To store,manage and organise digital data,information and content.Students search for information through digital devices and the Internet.In this sense,teachers should guide the learning processes to

109、judge the relevance of the source,providing adequate databases.A good practice could be to promote search and access to Open Educational Resources(OER)as adequate sources to access information(Larson&Murray,2008).Providing Online or Virtual Learning Environments(Alqurashi,2019)and defining Personal

110、Learning Environments(Junus&Brophy,2023)can be good practices to manage,to store,and to organise data,information and learning content.Both approaches can complement face-to-face education.Active methodologies in class include a step of learning by searching information:these types of methodologies

111、are considered in the curriculum of secondary education(Fernndez-Rodrigo,2016).Communication and CollaborationCommunication is a transversal action in any area of the curriculum and necessary in any kind of teaching and learning process.Digital technologies provide both students and teachers with mo

112、re tools and possibilities to facilitate communication processes in or out of the face-to-face class.On the other hand,collaboration 24is needed especially in cooperative learning activities in groups,in any kind of curricular area.Achieving communication and collaboration competence is a way to ach

113、ieve other learning contents in the curriculum.Active methodologies in class are good practice to improve communication and collaboration competence:students need to cooperate using digital technologies to achieve learning goals.Types of communication and collaboration actions considering the agents

114、 involved(Evangelista&Thrower,2023;Garca Chitiva&Surez Guerrero,2019).Among students:in face-to-face lessons,using collaborative work tools to share content and work together synchronously;at home,also they can use communication tools to do homework in groups,like video conferences or chats.Among st

115、udents of different courses:students of different schools can collaborate to achieve learning goals.Video conferences and collaborative work tools facilitate those students at different secondary schools working together.Among teachers and students:implementing a virtual learning environment can be

116、a good practice to share learning content and solve doubts through forums or other tools,in blended learning environments.A virtual learning environment can be used in any curricular area.Digital Content CreationThe creation of digital content can be integrated in different types of learning process

117、 and in any area,in order to generate a learning product by achieving new knowledge(Scolari,2020).The digital content considers all the multimedia supports:text,video,pictures,audio,games,photography,etc.The Digital Content Creation competence can be integrated in the curriculum as a way to generate

118、 new knowledge and information in any area.Working through design thinking projects,as an active methodology,can be a good practice in class to conduct the learning process in order to create a digital product(Androutsos&Brinia,2019).Creative apps/software facilitate digital content creation.Adolesc

119、ents know the functionalities of a lot of apps for creating content,in this sense teachers should manage students abilities according to the learning process.25SafetyStudents need to know some civic rules to participate in society through digital spaces:how to interact in virtual environments;how to

120、 manage ones digital presence,identity and reputation;how to protect personal data and psychological health;and to be aware of digital technologies for social well-being and social inclusion.It is important for students to be informed about the potentialities of technology but,also,to be aware of th

121、e risks for their well-being.Best practices show us the importance of establishing the rules by the cooperation of teachers and adolescents at the same level(Urrea et al.,2023).The rules can be made for face-to-face lessons using digital technologies and for virtual spaces,when students work from ho

122、me to do homework.On the other hand,the use of technology in the school should be sustainable for the environmental impact,with policies for the re-use and maintenance of the devices.Students should be involved in these management.Safety also is a digital competence that can be adopted in secondary

123、school in a transversal way,although it is linked with the citizenship curricular area.Problem SolvingThis competence is referred to identify needs and problems and to resolve conceptual problems and problem situations in digital environments.Problem solving is also a competence in the secondary cur

254、,engineer)as well as within specific industry sectors(e.g.,banking,retail,consulting,engineering).The use of digital tools and platforms can be incorporated into assessments,projects,immersions,research reports,scenario weeks and other live and hybrid learning experiences.These can be designed to pr
