Formation of Digital Literacy of Undergraduate Students in the Context of Sustainable Development Goals

Abstract

The paper aims to develop a model of a training course aimed at forming undergraduate students’ digital literacy, considering the goals of sustainable development and the implementation of a competency-based approach. The tasks were to analyze digital literacy frameworks in the context of sustainable development goals, analysis of educational standards of higher education at the bachelor’s level, and modeling on this basis the content of the academic discipline, determining the methodological conditions of the learning process, and choosing instrumental solutions for designing the course and implementing academic discipline. In the process of identifying and analyzing the existing framework of digital competencies, international frameworks, and practical experience, we proposed a way to correlate these models with the tasks of implementing a competency-based approach and adapting these models to the national conditions for the implementation of educational programs at the higher education level. We developed a scientific concept and modeled the “Digital Culture” training course, aimed at developing digital literacy of students in all areas of training at the bachelor’s level.
