Digital Literacy and Digital Didactics as the Basis for New Learning Models Development

Abstract

An efficient organization of the educational process within rapid acceleration of the society digitization is impossible without increasing its digital literacy, if the latter is really estimated and new models of digital learning didactics are devel-oped respectively. So, it is necessary to study an actual state of digital literacy, as well as to search for and introduce new learning models in the educational system based on the use of modern innovative technologies and digital learning methods. The objective of the research is to examine the level of the digital literacy of teachers, and also opportunities and promising trends within the digital didactics for the formation of competencies as the basis of a new model for the develop-ment of a new learning model in the context of the formation of the digital knowledge society. Two main methods have been used – elaboration of the ab-stract and logical model and a survey. In the research the data obtained as a result of the survey conducted in 2018 by NAFI Analytical Centre related to the meas-urement of the digital literacy level of teachers and lecturers in Russia were used. The number of respondents made up 634 lecturers (higher education) as well as 555 teachers (general education). The digital literacy formation model was devel-oped based on the didactic learning triangle taking into account the synthesis of three learning environments – real, virtual and neurocognitive. The analysis of the survey data demonstrated that in the aggregate of the compared indices for differ-ent social groups of the population, school teachers and lecturers of higher educa-tional institutions have reached the higher level of the digital literacy, which sig-nificantly exceeds the average Russian level. So, in Russia as a whole the index of the digital literacy of the adult population by a similar measurement method makes up 52% out of 100% possible ones, school teachers – 87%, lecturers of higher educational institutions – 88%. The use of research results in practice is possible with the improvement of training programs, the exchange of internation-al experience and further researches.

The Effect of Digital Technology Integration on Students’ Academic Performance through Project-Based Learning in an E-learning Environment

“…In the context of higher education, the use of digital technology forms an integral part of the contemporary student experience [3], [4]. As such, related literature has focused on the potential use of various digital technologies to enable, extend and even improve learning achievement and, consequently, students' overall academic performance [5]- [8]. Henderson et al [6] studied university students' engagement with digital technologies and explored their actual experiences of digital technology use during their academic studies, highlighting students' perceptions towards important aspects of digital technology when studying and learning.…”

Contextualized game-based intervention for digital literacy for the Pacific Islands

“…Paul Glister first defined the term digital literacy in 1997 as the ability to understand and use information in multiple formats from a wide range of sources when it is presented via computers (Harvey, 2000;Reddy et al, 2020a;Toquero, 2020;Hongthong & Temdee, 2018;Walton, 2016). With the development, availability and accessibility of new technologies, the definition of digital literacy or digital competencies changed and according to researchers, the term will continue to change as technologies evolve (Polizzi, 2020;Radonovic et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2020;Singh et al, 2019;Neilson, 2018;Spante et al, 2018;Lynch, 2017). Some recent definitions of digital literacy are: i. ability to access, analyse, evaluate and produce messages in a variety of forms (Polizzi, 2020) ii.…”

“…competencies in finding, processing, producing, and communicating information (Radovanovic et al, 2020) iv. combination of technical, procedural, cognitive and emotionally social skills (Liu et al, 2020) v. skills needed for the information society, that is, the use of electronic equipment for personal and social interactions and educational and business needs (Reddy et al, 2020a).…”
