Resumo(s)
A utilização massiva das Tecnologias Digitais transformou a vida quotidiana e,
particularmente, a forma como os jovens interagem com o mundo. Inseridos num
ambiente cada vez mais digital, os jovens utilizam estas tecnologia para múltiplas
ocupações, desde a pesquisa até à comunicação. As competências associadas a estas
tarefas, conhecidas como “competências digitais”, são essenciais no século XXI, tanto
para a vida académica como para o mercado de trabalho. Neste contexto, torna-se
essencial compreender como estas competências estão a ser desenvolvidas nas escolas e
de que forma as tecnologias estão a ser integradas no sistema educativo. Esta
investigação visa explorar a perceção dos jovens portugueses sobre as suas
competências digitais, além de abordar a integração das tecnologias no ambiente
escolar. De natureza descritiva e quantitativa, a pesquisa empírica assentou na análise
das respostas de 62 jovens a um questionário. Este instrumento subdividiu-se em três
dimensões. A primeira, procurou averiguar o conhecimento e definição de competências
digitais pelos jovens. A segunda dimensão, visou compreender o nível de competência
dos jovens, em diversas categorias e tarefas digitais. A terceira focou-se em perceber, a
partir da perspetiva dos jovens, como as competências digitais e as tecnologias estão a
ser aplicadas e desenvolvidas nas escolas, de forma a avaliar o seu nível de preparação
digital. Os dados indicam que, embora os jovens considerem possuir diversas
competências digitais, estas encontram-se, em muitos casos, num nível superficial e
pouco aprofundado. Além disso, evidencia-se que, apesar do uso crescente de
tecnologia, a sua integração no ensino permanece limitada. Torna-se, por tal, importante
efetivar esta integração, para promover o desenvolvimento das competências digitais
dos alunos, fundamentais para o seu sucesso no século XXI.
The massive use of digital technologies has transformed everyday life and, in particular, the way young people interact with the world. Inserted in an increasingly digital environment, teenagers use these technologies for multiple tasks, from research to communication. The skills associated with these tasks, known as “digital skills”, are essential in the 21st century, both for academic life and for the job market. In this context, it is essential to understand how these skills are being developed in schools and how technologies are being integrated into the education system. This research aims to explore young portuguese people's perceptions of their digital skills, as well as addressing the integration of technologies in the school environment. Descriptive and quantitative in nature, the empirical research was based on analyzing the responses of 62 young people to a questionnaire. This instrument was subdivided into three dimensions. The first sought to ascertain young people's knowledge and definition of digital skills. The second dimension aimed to understand young people's level of competence in various digital categories and tasks. The third focused on understanding, from the perspective of young people, how digital skills and technologies are being applied and developed in schools, in order to assess their level of digital readiness. The data shows that although young people consider themselves to have various digital skills, these are often at a superficial and shallow level. Furthermore, despite the growing use of technology, its integration into education remains limited. It is therefore important to make this integration effective in order to promote the development of students' digital skills, which are fundamental to their success in the 21st century.
