In this paper the behaviors and tendencies in the use of digital technologies by university students are analyzed. After a short discussion of former studies and the presentation of the model for digital literacy structure and assessment in students attending compulsory school, the investigation carried out by the authors is described and the results obtained from the analysis of the university students’ answers is reported. The survey was submitted to 331 students in the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Cassino, Italy, and the students’ answers show a contradictory reality: on one side, digital technologies are mainly used to communicate in social networks or to play music and movies, on another side it is evident the students’ interest for the most recent aspects of the application of digital technology and for the improvement in the quality of their use.

This study proposes some of the elements of competencies that university students must have for coping with life in a society of the future. Furthermore, it proposes a particular teaching method to effectively strengthen these future competencies. In order to carry out this research, a review of previous studies, as well as an analysis of pertinent literature, were conducted in order to ascertain the competencies in question. In addition, three Delphi surveys were conducted by 10 experts in each major field involved. The results showed that future university students would require the following competencies: creativity and personality competency (problem solving ability, curiosity, a challenging spirit, cognitive flexibility, responsibility, leadership, etc.), a common good competency (common good sensitivity, inclusiveness, empathy and communication ability, etc.), and convergence competency (humanities literacy, engineering literacy, aesthetic literacy, etc.), and digital technology application competency (digital literacy, big data utilization, computing thinking, etc.). The results of this study can be used to develop a plan for the advancement of university education-one that meets the various needs of students living in any given future society. Moreover, it can also provide some ideas for the development of educational content by applying certain future competencies and future teaching methods.

Moderating Role

The extent to which students are able to maximize the potential benefits of information from the online world depends, in great measure, on the development of a set of skills that would make them effective users and decision-makers. While previous studies have revealed the role of prior knowledge, availability of ICT resources and infrastructure in the development of information-type skills, the identification of other unexplored variables remains important in information science. This paper seeks to ascertain the moderating role of mindfulness on digital literacy and online information searching strategies on a select group of university students in the Philippines. Structural equation modeling was used to test a hypothesized model and explore the factors affecting the information-seeking behavior of 321 students from the largest comprehensive university in the Philippines. A multi-aspect instrument, consisting of a robotfoto, and three scales such as the Langer Mindfulness Scale (LMS), Internet Skills Scale (ISS), and Online Information Searching Strategies Inventory (OISSI), was used in this study. Results revealed that digital literacy had a direct positive relationship with the online information searching strategies of students. Surprisingly, mindfulness did not moderate the relationship between digital literacy and online information searching strategies. Further, digital literacy was found to be a mediating factor to university students’ information searching strategies. Implications of these for library practice and policy are discussed in this paper.

Effective Assessment

The widespread availability in universities of modern video recording and management systems integrated into Virtual Learning Environments, such as Panopto with Moodle, now enables all students to easily create and submit their own recordings for assessment, and the platform enables the management of the marking and feedback to be simple and effective.  It is time that lecturers embraced this development in order that assessment remains effective and relevant.  The ability to create a screencast or video for assessment should be an essential digital literacy skill for all university students.
