“…Research studies on BL and technical teaching remain in their early stages (Aktas & Omurtag, 2013;Hölb & Welzer, 2010). BL is not used in engineering studies (C. Porumb, S. Porumb, Orza, & Vlaicu, 2013) or architecture (Francis & Shannon, 2013) as commonly as in other subjects. Fortunately, important steps are being taken not only to change the teaching methods and practices, but also to publicise the results regarding ICT.…”

<p class="apa">The organisation of university education in Europe is undergoing profound changes as a consequence of the establishment of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). This transformation entails methodological changes that are focused on student work. The student is now considered to be an autonomous individual who is able to choose a path of study and capable of self-regulation. These objectives are believed to be achievable with hybrid learning models. The economic cost of including these methods makes it necessary to demonstrate whether the investment can be profitable in terms of improved academic results and increased acceptability among students. We analyse whether the use of two tools by students (assessments and forums) influences their grades and whether there are correlations between performance and the evaluation of the tool by students and between the evaluation and the degree of use. The sample consists of 176 students. We follow an ex post facto methodological design, with descriptive and correlational techniques. We found significant differences in the grades received according to the degree of use of the tools studied. Additionally, we found a correlation between grades and student evaluation.</p>

“…As a matter of fact, it is very advantageous for the labor market requiring a modern knowledge and indeed it has been possible to create an evaluation system by the team of experts that will allow the employee to obtain a relatively good evaluation of their own digital competence. However, the framework created does not cover the whole of society who uses digital devices and uses digital goods through it [3,9,12]. Furthermore, the framework in my opinion includes very general considerations and, unfortunately, it is not possible to assess the society of Eastern Europe and, in particular, of the Hungarian society because our peculiarities are not evaluated [3,11].…”

Since the end of the 20th century the digital competence social and personal importance is increasingly heaves. Nowadays the basic level information technology knowledge is necessary because the penetration rate of the digital devices and the internet availability. Again the material world dangers the defense actions evolved. The cyber age started some decade ago. Civil people are not aware for attacks in the Cyber space and they can’t survey its danger. In Hungary the information technology and the internet penetration started in the last some decades. „Gen X” and older generation people users only in theirs adulthood met digital devices and its application. For the said generations to find a workplace was not required the digital competence, because the digital devices and the digital infrastructure wasn’t availability for everybody. This age-group has not enough motivation to improve the digital competence and herewith develop the safety awareness too. Nowadays this age-group needs significant helps to correspond to the challenge of the digital world. The digital competence and the safety awareness are improvable by the way of education. The knowledge levels are very different between the same age users. The assessment and the determination of the levels are a complex problem. Skills and routine levels of the users are approximately well determinable by questionnaire. The development of the different digital competence and safety awareness level user’s is workable by different knowledge transmission. I introduce in this paper like my research synthesis the assessment and the classification of the tested age-groups.

“…Entrepreneurial activity is translated as an active individual in starting a business new and expressed as a percent of the total active population work. The lower the entrepreneurial activity index, the lower the level of entrepreneurship in a country, and its impact on high unemployment (Porumb et al, 2016).…”

Data obtained from a survey conducted using a google form filled with 56 students starting from the 2015-2019 class showed that students' strategies in developing business prefer social media as a means of product promotion because it is more effective and efficient. Based on the results of the study, we found a link between student entrepreneurial strategies and knowledge management. From the data we have collected, most of the students are self-taught, rely on information, and process that information. This is by the concept of knowledge management.
