This call funds project focused on the assessment of individual students’ digital skills at primary and/or secondary level including VET.
Projects under this Topic will focus on the assessment of individual students’ digital skills at primary and/or secondary level including VET, the end of the secondary education cycle, and explore the feasibility of assessment practices that are explicit about the level of digital skills, including by referencing it clearly to DigComp, in a variety of contexts (e.g. if digital skills are developed through a specific subject or in a transversal way). These projects will allow to identify factors and criteria which are necessary for developing a comprehensive and robust assessment methodology for digital skills, thus supporting the creation of a progression model to assess digital skills.
The following activities can be funded:
• Methodologically robust research and analysis leading to an assessment framework for digital skills;
• Development of questionnaires or structured assessment methods for evaluating digital skills;• Implementation of assessment methods for digital skills and analysis of the results;
• Design and pilot of assessment frameworks for digital skills which are also referenced to the latest version of DigComp;
• Transfer of innovative methods or tools (across countries, policy sectors or target groups) for the assessment of digital skills;
• A Mapping of assessment methods and policies in a variety of contexts and in different MS;
• a reassessment of monitoring systems: mappings of, or proposal for innovative monitoring and evaluation frameworks and methodologies to gauge and evaluate the effectiveness of the assessment methodologies;
• Analysis of transferability of the project results and sustainability of its results after the end of the project (including in other sectors of education and training);
• Dissemination and networking events (sectoral or cross sectoral) aiming for further exposure of the project work and results and for increasing possibility for transferability.
