“…Although there are various studies on the evaluation of teachers' and prospective teachers' digital skills (Aslan, 2021;Ahmad et al, 2016;Demir et al, 2022;Markauskaite, 2007;McGarr & McDonagh, 2021;Özcan, 2022;Siddiq, 2016), little research has been done on the competencies required of teachers to be appointed to teach students digital skills (Claro et al, 2018). The skills that teachers who will give digital literacy education should have and the digital skills that they should have as a requirement of the teaching profession are at different levels.…”

It is argued that, young people growing up surrounded by digital technologies intuitively acquire digital skills and therefore do not need digital education or training. For this reason, with the belief that students already have digital skills, digital literacy education courses are reduced or removed in educational institutions. Therefore, it is necessary to emphasize the importance of development of digital skills in the education. The purpose of this research is to examine the digital skills of students in terms of different variables. This research was conducted as a survey research. The participant group of the research consists of 423 undergraduate students who have just started to study at a university. According to the results of the research, the digital skill levels of the students who attend the IT courses are significantly higher than the students who do not. Digital skills were significantly higher for the male students than for the female students. In addition, the digital skills of the students who took the IT courses from the teacher trained in teaching digital skills were significantly higher than the students who took the course from teachers from other professions.

“…There is a rising trend in the uptake of massive open online courses (MOOCs) in recent years [2], which allows for easier access to new courses. The emergence of MOOCs underscores the significance of digital literacy in motivating lifelong learning [3]. This insight is vital for policy development, as the successful application of training in the workforce is largely influenced by individual motivations and the perceived relevance of the courses, among other factors [4,5].…”

Lifelong learning is crucial for equipping the workforce to navigate a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world. Despite its importance, resistance to enrolling in lifelong learning courses persists. This exploratory study examines the exposure to and engagement with government-sponsored courses among two distinct groups: individuals who opt for these courses and those who select alternative courses. We employed comparative statistical analysis to identify the primary factors influencing course awareness and selection. Our findings underscore the enduring influence of traditional media in promoting course awareness. Additionally, personal interest and availability of subsidies emerged as significant determinants of course selection. Based on these insights, we propose policy recommendations to enhance the effectiveness of these courses. This empirical study contributes to the understanding of the dynamics of lifelong learning in Singapore, providing valuable insights for policy and practice.
