In the present landscape of technological change there is increasing awareness of the need to support the acquisition of digital competences. In this paper, the authors address how digital competences can be developed through formal learning.

Nowadays, digital competence is recognized as one of eight core key competencies for lifelong learning. University students, in the context of education digital transformation, necessarily possess digital competence to be able to study and work in today's open and global educational environment. To develop digital competencies for students, the most important, time-consuming and labor-intensive first step is to determine the conceptual definition and an appropriate digital competence framework. For countries conducting digital transformation in the later stages like Vietnam, inheriting the achievements of previous countries is the optimal and smart choice. Using theoretical research methods, this article synthesizes the concept and structure of digital competence in higher education context from relevant publications, as a basis to suggest an approach in selecting a digital competence framework that is suitable to develop digital competence for university students in Vietnam.

The health crisis caused by COVID-19 has urged face-to-face universities to adapt to the distance-teaching mode. This research seeks to analyse teaching and learning strategies and experiences during the confinement period in the context of the Faculty of Education of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (N=29 teachers, 227 students). The results reveal that design of the course has reproduced face-to-face practices tending towards content-based learning. Lecturers have experienced difficulties deriving from a lack of digital competence and literacy in online pedagogies and students with reference to the paradigm shift that affect their role and tasks. In conclusion, there are pedagogical and technological changes that are here to stay and that the future of higher education will be hybrid. Teachers are predisposed to continue learning about the use of digital technologies and innovative teaching methods while there is a need to incorporate such competences into educators’ educational programmes.
