Abstract

The development of new ways of communication and solving educational tasks through distance education is becoming a reality. The literacy for the 21st century introduces a new set of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that are required for a successful and quality life. Hence, traditional literacy (reading, writing and calculating) recently incorporated digital literacy as well. Training students in basic ICT skills is considered one of the objectives to help them acquire digital competence. In this regard, the purpose of our research is to analyze the goals, teaching methods and activities and the manner of evaluating students’ achievements in the informatics curricula for high school and secondary vocational education, and their impact on the development of digital competence. The descriptive method with all its modalities dominates in the research, that is, analysis of the condition, comparison and generalization. Based on the results, it can be observed that the objectives stipulated in the informatics curriculum correspond to the knowledge and skills stipulated within digital competence, and also the envisaged teaching methods, forms and activities of the teacher and the students have a motivating effect on students. The results do not suggest the conclusion that the individual today must be capable of using technology, to access the needed information and to be able to identify and use the needed information from the multitude of information. Therefore, the recommendation is to stimulate the development of digital competence through the content of other subjects as well.
