Digital Competencies in Education during the 4.0 Revolution

Abstract

In times of the 4.0 Revolution, digital education is becoming increasingly important as digital skills are crucial for teachers and students. Research shows that most teachers have appropriate competencies in digital technologies, but they lack the motivation to develop them. There are also obstacles to implementing digital education, such as a lack of teaching and technical support. Forms of support for teachers in improving digital competencies are mainly based on training, although there are also self-assessment tools and teacher networks. The conclusion of the research is the need to properly prepare teachers to implement digital education in the context of the 4.0 Rdigitalevolution.
